I started my playing career through the Sporting Kc Academy. In my years there I have trained under high-level coaches and professional players. Since then I have played at Temple University and UCLA. I have accumulated higher knowledge of the game forwards must have to succeed at the academy and college level. Throughout my career, I have picked up many injuries that have sidelined me and most recently tore my ACL. I know what it takes for an athlete to be mentally strong in dealing with setbacks, but most importantly how to bounce back stronger and play smarter.

Contrary to popular belief forwards do not need to have a lot of flair to succeed at the highest level. What separates a pro from an amateur is that pros can do the basics 100% of the time correctly and make the right decisions especially in and around the box. Further what most young forwards lack is the off-ball movement to get into the right spaces at the right time. These movements are what get forwards in scoring positions against better defenders. As well as working on shooting techniques to get the ball on frame.
- On-ball warm-up
- Look at game realistic scenarios to get to the goal
- Off-ball movement to get open
- Dribbling to beat a defender
- Combination play to get to goal

Jon Parry my academy director changed me for the better. Before the academy, I was admittedly a lazy player who was lucky to be able to get by on talent. Upon meeting and training with him, he drilled into me what true hard work looks like and how far it can take you. This set me up for college because most coaches are looking for players to make an immediate impact on their team.
I am a first-generation American born of Kenyan parents. I have played with players from all different backgrounds and this in turn has made me accepting of everybody and easy to talk to. Some fun facts about me I'm a soccer junkie, my favorite team is Fc Barcelona (sorry Madrid fans), I have a degree in finance.

Book and schedule your lessons through our platform.
Meet your coach in-person or virtually, and start chasing down your goals!
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.
