More About Coach Jessica

I coached club for the past 3 seasons in Los Angeles and I just recently moved to Boston. I helped coach the girls varsity team at Buckingham Brown and Nichols to a NEPSAC Class A Championship. I have coached numerous soccer clinics for girls ages 8 to 16. I have also received my Cal South E License and continue to pursue higher licenses to coach.

ONLY COACH AGES 9 AND UP

The first 15 to 20 minutes of the session would consist of fitness using the agility ladder and short sports. Dynamic stretching would be incorporated throughout the warm up.

A session would goal keepers would begin catching with a weighted ball. The weighted ball will helped build quick hands. After about 15 minutes with the weighted ball. We would do around 5 minutes of kicking to warm up the legs; start out short then go long. Each goalie session will have a specific focus. For example, high balls, low dives, power dives and kicking. A high ball session would start out catching short high balls and then we would build to catching long high balls. The session would finish with a round of rapid fire.

Just like the goal keeper sessions, every field player session will have a theme. The session would begin with short, quick, dynamic passing and skill work. Learning new moves. After skill work would be cone work and then explosions down the line and crossing the ball. Devoting time to developing a stronger shot will also be incorporated to sessions. One goal that I would like all players to acquire is to learn timing of runs and crossing balls.

Client Reviews

Coach Jessica skillfully distills deep soccer mastery into age appropriate and student friendly pearls. My daughter felt empowered from the very first session. Where has Coach Jessica been all our soccer lives?! Whether one is new to the sport or seeking to refine the fundamentals, they will be in great hands. She is truly invested in the success of her students. As a parent, one can’t ask for anything more.

Coach Jessica is absolutely amazing. She is so patient and kind with our 11 year old who is just starting out in soccer. They have already had two practices together, and we have seen some improvement.

Coach Jessica has transformed my daughter in a confident all around soccer player. She built her confidence and is a great role model for my daughter. Coach Jessica is a great coach and anyone that wants to be or have their child to become a great all around soccer player needs to have her in the picture.

Jessica is great. Shes working with my 12 year old daughter. She’s pushing her and giving her good feedback as well as being kind and personable.

We have had only one session so far and it exceeded my expectations. Jessica definitely knows what she s doing. Looking forward to more sessions.

Very good technical coach who has good insight into performance evaluation and devising lesson plans for areas of future improvement. Would recommend.

Our kiddo loved her first session with Coach Jessica! Looking forward to more training sessions soon.

Jessica has been so responsive and helpful to find time to coach my daughter. Very good communications! She is a positive strong knowledgeable coach who assessed her in the first session incredibly correctly after one visit and made a great plan to reach short term and longer term goals. Very motivating and engaging!! Would give more than 5 stars if I could.

Jessica has been fantastic working with my 14 year old in getting her prepared for more competitive high school play. She's knowledgeable and dedicated and has even come to my daughter's games to support her and evaluate her progress on the field. Highly recommended!

Great training session for 12 y/o girl aspiring to be a goalie. Jessica was great!

She is great! My daughter loves Coach Jess time. She is learning so much and gaining confidence.

Coach Jessica provides the perfect balance between rigorous technical training and soccer fun. Our 13 year old has already improved a great deal after just a few sessions. In addition, Jessica is an excellent listener and an extremely perceptive evaluator of form and gait. She tailors her coaching curricula to the needs of the player. We highly and enthusiastically recommend her!

We had our first session with Jess and it was great. We are scheduling more today.

Coach Jessica did a fantastic job with my daughter. As much as she helped with my daughters foot work, she helped my daughter deal with the mental part of the game. This was key as my daughter was struggling with her confidence, and dealing with a coach that was hard on her.

I recommend without hesitation Coach Jessica, and we plan on booking more sessions with her in the spring.

Coach Jessica is an awesome coach. She worked with our daughter Emily preparing her to play in college this fall. Jessica's approach was not just skill based, rather developing the whole athlete mentally, emotionally and physically for the demands of playing in college. Jessica shared her experience and provided guidance on how to train and push harder than the rest reminding Emily that perfect practice makes excellence. She focused on preventative ACL strength training as well as overall conditioning and recovery. Emily has a renewed joy and excitement for soccer and is feeling more confident and sure of herself. Thank you Jessica! Emily will be keeping in touch.

My daughter has had one session with Jessica, but it is going great so far! She is patient and informative and already giving useful tips. We are booking more sessions, and looking forward to it.

My daughter is learning and developing with Jessica’s instruction. She looks forward to the sessions.

Emma loved her and the tips she gave her. Instant results.

Jessica is great at not only skill development, but understanding the player as well. Especially with younger players, she is able to understand now their bodies are changing and reacting as they continue to play sports. My daughter enjoys learning from Jessica, who mixes positive feedback with challenges very well.

Absolutely amazing. Goes a step above what is required or expected. Blessed to have her as a coach and trainer of soccer and life skills, as an athlete.

Coach Jessica is great! Our son just started training as a goalie and we wanted to start him off with detailed training. Coach Jessica is very knowledgeable of specific training techniques to this position. She challenged him, he learned a lot, and he's looking forward to his next session.

Terrific. Wonderful with our 10 year old daughter.

Awesome coach!

Jessica is wonderful! She targeted my daughter's needs and made it fun! I saw an immediate improvement in my daughter's skills, and I saw her apply what she learned the next day while playing. Jessica's coaching is so effective because she explains to my daughter the reasons behind what she is doing! My daughter loved it and loves Jessica!

Coach Jessica is great! My daughter loves working with her! Her skill level has increased as well as her confidence!

My daughter loves Coach Jessica! She's learned so much and her confidence has increased tremendously! I highly recommend Coach Jessica!

Jessica was great in her communications and took the time to observe my son in action prior to forming a course of action for his training. We will definitely be working with her in the future.

She was been working with my 10-year-old son to learn the fundamentals properly. She's great with kids and very patient, and knows her stuff. She's also responsive and punctual. I'd highly recommend her.

Coach Jessica has done a terrific job with my daughter. After just a few weeks, her game has noticeably improved despite years of play. Most importantly, my daughter really relates well to Jessica, which is terrific since most of her coaches are someone's dad (and sometimes her dad!). Jessica clearly has thorough knowledge of all aspects of soccer and all positions. She presents the drills and tips in a way that is easy to understand and to retain. We are very pleased. Most importantly, not only as my daughter's game improved, but she absolutely loves her lessons with Jessica!

Coach Jessica was amazing! After first session with her, my 9 year old daughter couldnt wait to come back for more! Jessica established quick rapport, thoroughly evaluated her skills and areas of strength and weakness and got right to work. She gave homework (which my daughter was excited about completing each night!) and gave a super helpful session summary/feedback. We booked 5 more and I imagine we won't stop there! I highly recommend Jessica to anyone wanting to take their game to the next level!

Coach Jessica works very well on correct technique and correct foot work which will benefit any athlete in the long run. Highly recommended!

Jessica was fantastic showing my daughter technical skills and also very positive coaching. She also gave her some great drills to work on at home with balance and footwork

My son just completed 3 sessions and I have all positives regarding Jessica. She is professional and always on time. Her assessments are honest and thorough. She always provides a post session recap. What I feel is most impressive is that she firmly believes in the basics, not fancy tricks. I am impressed with her level of enthusiasm as a coach. She even texted me when my son played in a tournament to see how it went for him. I just purchased another package of sessions. Highly recommend Jessica.

Coach Jessica is awesome. She genuinely looks at each child and their individual needs. Her positive approach and skill building techniques have made a huge impact on my child's abilities.

Coach Jessica is great! She is very personable and really made my daughter feel comfortable working with her from day 1. She also is very technical and is quickly able to determine what and how to work on skills. Highly recommend her

Jessica is a awesome trainer! My daughter has learned so much from her and I would highly recommend her!

Coach Jessica has been a really great coach. My daughter has learned a lot of new techniques that have really gave her more confidence out on the field. Jessica's knowledge of the sport is outstanding and each session, not only taught my daughter new ways to maneuver the ball or kick that perfect goal but also kept with the fundamentals of the game. Coach Jessica makes hard work seem fun and is very easy to talk to. She as also helped my daughter with sharing her knowledge on approaching college coaches, application process etc... Overall we were very happy having Coach Jessica train my daughter and I highly recommend her.

My son enjoyed his first session with coach Jessica and I found her very thoughtful in her assesment of his skills. We are looking forward to working with her to more fully develop our sons goalkeeping skills. You can tell she's very experienced and passionate about the game.

Absolutely am pleased with Jessica and her coaching abilities! My daughter is on her fourth session and already displaying much improvement! Would highly recommend Jessica to others!

Jessica, Sofia is so pumped up that she is able to continue being coached by you. Thank you for your dedication to her sessions. My husband and I have seen the difference in her skills and confidence. We love her progress! To anyone who is interested in soccer....please contact Jessica....she is a wonderful coach and a great influence. Her sessions are EXCELLENT!!!!!

She is very friendly and an exceptional coach. I like the fact that she assess your child based on their skill level, then plans an intensive session catered to improve your child's skill level. I have seen great improvement and results on the level of play that my daughter brings every game. I would definitely recommend her!!!!

Jessica has done a great job with my daughter so far. She really enjoys working with her and has developed a good rapport with her. Looking forward to many more sessions...

After one session with Coach Jessica our young daughter is excited about her future sessions. We feel like our daughter has already been exposed to numerous drills and fundamentals that were never focused on by her AYSO coaches. So far so good.

Coach Jessica has been great for my daughter who is a 14 year old club goalkeeper. Jessica keeps practice fun, yet rigorous and challenging. She has also been great to work with as a parent. She’s thoughtful, responsive, on time and has a great attitude every time we interact. She has significantly improved my daughter’s skills and confidence! Jessica is a very talented coach and quickly identified the most important skills my daughter needs to improve upon to become a better and more consistent player. I would recommend Coach Jessica to anybody who wants to take their soccer to the next level.

I am soo impressed with Coach Jessica! When I first booked a session with Jessica she got back to me very quickly, and when we met she was punctual, set-up, and ready to go! She focused on everything I wanted her to and more! She was very up-beat and positive which made it very fun for my daughter. She is knowledgable and a very good teacher! I highly recommend her! (and my daughter does to!) :)

My daughter walked into her first session apprehensive but finished it with a smile. She liked how Jessica made the session fun and not seem like work. My daughter learned new skills she didn't know existed. Jessica was able to pinpoint areas where she needed improvement and was very positive in her approach. Overall great experience and she will continue with Jessica to improve her game.

Coach Jessica is exactly what we've been looking for in a keeper coach for our daughter. She is highly-skilled, approachable, and overall, a great coach. My daughter is already looking forward to her next session!

We love Coach Jessica! She made the session so much fun and really was positive! We look forward to MANY more coaching sessions!

Jessica is an outstanding coach. She has tremendous passion for the game and her knowledge, training methods, and motivation techniques make for an incredible experience. Jessica definitely will elevate your game to the next level.

I have worked with close to 100 athletes starting at age 9 up to college. All have been successful in sport and their confidence has grown immensely. I think it's important to encourage and challenge our young athletes to strive to be their best. Confidence building and a little bit of humbling are traits these athletes can carry on and off the field. All of my athletes have told me that they have grown not just as athletes, but as people and that is why I continue to run private sessions.
