Book Private Soccer Lessons with Coach mubarek

Soccer has been my life from day one. Growing up in Ethiopia, I trained in Italian-style defensive football, then continued my journey in Seattle through high school soccer and the Valencia FC discovery program. My dedication earned me multiple Division I offers, and throughout that time I trained over 30 hours per week, mastering not only skills, but the mindset of a true competitor.

I coach with the same intensity I played with: instilling confidence, elite performance, and a sense of invincibility in every player I work with. My sessions are designed to leave athletes feeling like the best version of themselves, on and off the field.

I help players develop not only technical skills and tactical intelligence, but also the confidence and mindset of a true competitor. My goal is for every athlete to leave each session feeling like the best version of themselves , ready to dominate on the field, no matter the opponent.

I focus on:

Building unshakable confidence so players feel in control of the game

Technical mastery and tactical awareness that lets players make smart, effective decisions

Individual expression and creativity, soccer is an art, and every player has a unique style. I help athletes explore their strengths without forcing everyone into the same mold

Mental toughness and discipline to execute under pressure and rise to any challenge

Excitement and joy for the game, I guarantee players leave each session energized, inspired, and already looking forward to the next one

In short, I don’t just improve skills, I transform players into athletes who think, perform, and express themselves like champions, while having fun and discovering their own unique way to play.

Dynamic warm-up focused on movement, agility, and mental focus

Technical drills to build mastery and consistency

Tactical exercises that teach players how to read the game and anticipate plays

High-pressure scenarios to build confidence and performance under challenge

Free-form discovery time, a period where players are encouraged to experiment, express themselves, and explore their skills without expectations. Soccer is not just physical or tactical; it’s an art form, and every player has a unique way of expressing themselves. I don’t force everyone to be the same, instead, I help each player become their best, most authentic self on the field.

Feedback and reflection so players understand their progress and leave inspired

I guarantee that after every session, players walk away already excited for the next one. My goal is for them to leave not only more confident and skilled but also inspired, creative, and proud of their unique style of play.

My dad!!!!

Im not a coach that makes players feel unseen. every student under me is appreciated and empowered. I won't try to force every player to turn into a robot that has only one role that the coach gives him/her. Rather I help players discover their true soccer identity and excel in doing so. I believe everyone performs best when they are having fun in the game of soccer and that only happens if players are being themselves instead of this idea that coaches have in their minds. I will have every single one of my players have the same mentality I had when I walked onto the filed as a player, "the opponent is at my mercy'' ! and have fun while dismantling the biggest teams in the league. my players can come to me for anything and everything and so can their parents because being a coach means being family with the players and their support system to me!
