I’ve been playing soccer for years, honing my skills from high school to recreational leagues. My journey on the field has been about more than just scoring goals—it’s about mastering technique, strategy, and working as a team.
Some of my highlights include:
High School Soccer: Led my team as a forward, scoring 10 goals in a season and making a key impact on our strategy and overall performance.
Competitive Play: Gained extensive experience in various local and regional leagues, developing a deep understanding of the game from all angles—offense, defense, and the mental game.
Coaching and Leadership: As a coach and mentor, I focus on bringing out the best in players, helping them develop their skills, confidence, and teamwork, both on and off the field.
My approach to soccer is all about consistent improvement, discipline, and having fun. I don’t just train to play—I train to win.
I focus on the fundamentals while making sure each session is tailored to the player’s specific needs. Whether you’re working on your footwork, ball control, positioning, or mental game, I’ll break it down into manageable steps to ensure continuous progress.
But it’s not just about skill development—mental toughness is key. I’ll help you stay focused, confident, and motivated, even during tough moments. Soccer is as much about mindset as it is about technique.
With a mix of challenging drills, tactical insights, and personalized feedback, I’ll guide you to become a more well-rounded player and take your game to the next level.
A typical training session with me is all about balance: we mix technical drills, tactical work, and mental conditioning. It’s designed to keep you engaged and always improving, no matter your skill level.
We usually start with a warm-up to get the body moving and prevent injuries. From there, we dive into skill drills—passing, shooting, dribbling, and ball control, depending on what the player needs to work on. Then, we transition to tactical exercises: positioning, team dynamics, or strategy-focused drills that simulate game scenarios.
Throughout, I make sure we focus on the mental side too. We'll work on building confidence, handling pressure, and staying focused during the game. Every session is about improving, but also making sure you enjoy the process and grow your love for the game.
I have had the privilege of coaching athletes at various levels, bringing my experience and passion for soccer to every session. My coaching background includes working with both individual players and teams, focusing on skill development, strategic play, and mental toughness. I’ve led teams to better performances by emphasizing hard work, team chemistry, and growth. Whether it’s through tactical drills, fitness conditioning, or creating a winning mindset, my approach adapts to each athlete’s unique strengths and areas for improvement. My coaching philosophy is centered around making soccer both challenging and enjoyable, ensuring players improve at their own pace while fostering a love for the game.
That would be Coach Carlos,
He wasn’t just a coach—he was a mentor. He taught me more than just how to play soccer. His approach was about discipline, but also about understanding the game on a deeper level. He pushed me to believe in myself even when things were tough, showing me that the mental aspect of the game is just as important as the physical.
What made him the best wasn’t just his knowledge of the sport, but his ability to connect with every player, making us feel valued and motivated, no matter the circumstances. He helped me realize that success isn’t just about talent; it’s about attitude, effort, and learning from every experience.
I’m someone who genuinely cares about the growth of every player, both on and off the field. My training style focuses on building skills, confidence, and teamwork. I believe in pushing athletes to be their best, but also in understanding that improvement takes time and effort.
For athletes, it’s not just about physical skills—it’s about developing a mindset for success. Whether you're just starting out or trying to take your game to the next level, I’ll make sure you’re always moving forward.
For parents, I want them to know that I’m committed to their child’s development. I’ll communicate openly and regularly about progress and goals. I’m here to create a positive and supportive environment where athletes can thrive.
Ultimately, it’s all about having fun, learning, and growing together.

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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
