Fundamentals to create strong athletes!

As a professional athlete, I've learned the importance of fundamentals and creating strong habits. Minimizing the risk of injury and enhancing performance by eliminating any weak link is of paramount importance to me. My approach to every training session is intentional and tailored to the demand of each athlete's sport and their goals. Understanding these demands, help me design a sustainable program where the athlete can adhere and maintain full focus on the short-term goals in order to accomplish their long-term goals.

About Me:

Having gained experience from playing highly competitive soccer throughout my life and later furthering my education from a well-known institution like the National Academy of Sports Medicine, has helped me understand the demands that an athlete's body faces when performing at a high intensity level. Understanding that every athlete and sports demands are different, has driven me to pursue a career in the sports and fitness industry. Currently a professional athlete working among the top leagues as a soccer official, while also helping athletes of all different sports in one-on-one personalized sessions. And while I believe in fundamentals of human physiology, I am always in search of new methods to bring out the best in every athlete.

How I can help you improve your game:

I design training sessions with intention based on your current level of performance, your sport and your goals. Finding and understanding the root cause of any restriction or limitation, in order to address them and eliminate any weak link that can prevent us from achieving your full potential.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

Every session is tailored to your sport and level of performance. Designing exercises that imitate those of your sport while also focusing on fundamentals of strength and conditioning.

Career summary and accomplishments:

Performance Enhancement Specialist currently working with athletes of a variety of sports. Currently a Soccer Official at Professional Referee Organization working in MLS, NWSL and USL. Certified Personal Trainer and Sports Nutritional Coach. Played club soccer in Argentina from 3-11 years old. Played club soccer in US from 12-18 years old. Played HS varsity soccer from sophomore to senior year. Played semi-pro soccer for 2 years after high school.

Frequently Asked Questions

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 find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.

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.

AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.

At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
