How I can help you improve your game:
With my vast knowledge in Kinesiology I have the tools to detect deviations in movement and functionality. My style of Coaching is an Integrated approach where Strength & Power Training, Mobility, Sport Skills, Coordination, Speed, Agility, and Balance are the fitness focus for my programs. In addition to Plyometrics, Concentration, and Therapeutic aspects of fitness that provides an added value to any training regimen.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Depending on the Sport, I design my programs to be very situational in most instances. Commonly I devise fitness programs to correct deviations in functionality, enhance the levels of sport skills weakness, and developing overall fitness. For example, if I am coaching a client who needs to build on ball handling skills for basketball. In this situation, a large portion of the training will be Ball handling skills implanted within the cross-training of the training regimen. Situational aspects such "Double team" situations, "Full-Court pressure", or simply "one-on-one" ball handling skills to score, will be crucial in the enhancement of Ball handling skills for this athlete.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
