More About Coach Bryan

I have experience coaching youths from 5 year olds to young adults that are 22 years old. My first experience as a coach was in 2007 when I was playing with D.C United and I’ve continued to coach from that time.

I played in the MLS for 2 years with D.C United and Montreal Impact. I played in the Bundesliga in Germany for 2 years with Hertha Berlin. I played 1 year in the Portuguese league with Estoril Praia and three years in the NASL. I’ve also played two u-20 World Cups with the u-20 USA national team.

First I like to get to know whoever I’m going to be coaching. I like to hear from him or her to see what it is they feel they need help on. Then I like to run them through basic drills to see where they’re at physically and technically. Then based on the conversation and what I view during the basic drills, I form training sessions to improve those areas and take notes of the progress. I also like to try to make time to see a game whenever I can to see progress made in game situations because at the end of the day that’s what matters.

Client Reviews

Coach Bryan is great! Within the first session, he is able to see the little details that my son needs to improve on. He is very engaging during the session and my son cannot wait to schedule another session with him!

He understands the demands of the position and has insight on how to best help our daughter develop her game. Very flexible on availability and we look forward to working regular sessions into our training program.

Awesome trainer. He’s played at the highest footballing level and he really helped out my son with his methods.

Bryan was able to provide easy techniques to improve my game.

I highly recommend Coach Bryan. He is very talented and genuinely cares about our son's development in the sport he loves so much. He is devoted to seeing him succeed, and watching the two work together, you can see that Coach Bryan loves what he is doing. As soon as the practice was over, our son was asking if we could book two sessions a week and when was the next session. It was inspiring for our son.

Coach Bryan is great! He is the first coach to teach my brother how to properly kick the ball. He also made my brother comfortable.

Coach Bryan, was amazing with our daughter today. He definitely restored her confidence in her abilities after being cut from a local club soccer team. I could see immediate improvement with her dribbling and striking after their first session. He is patient and tactful without coming off as intimidating to the child. My husband and I are definitely fans of Coach Bryan’s instruction technique and would highly recommend.

Great first lesson. My son loved it and wants to do it again!

We hired Coach Bryan for a session with our 12-year daughter. He was absolutely incredible: patient, encouraging, energetic, and knowledgeable. Coach Bryan is himself a world-class athlete, and he moves with a seemingly effortless grace in demonstrating the skills and techniques. Watching a world-class athlete’s demonstration really helps the players visualize what they are supposed to do. After 6 years of AYSO and club soccer, my daughter came away from the session with a beaming smile on her face, exclaiming that finally someone had shown her how to properly strike and control the ball. Coach Bryan is fabulous. I would give him more than five stars if I could.

Where do I begin. My 8 year-old daughter has played in our local AYSO for four years and recently joined a local club team. She has never been taught the fundamentals of shooting the ball using appropriate technique as well as defending a player. Coach Bryan took my concerns and worked with my daughter and her technique and later that day during her team practice, my daughter was shooting with way more power and accuracy as well as defending the opposing player using the technique Coach Bryan showed her. All from the first training session from Coach Bryan. It was awesome to see her respond to his instruction so quickly. Coach Bryan is professional, patient to explain and demonstrate appropriate technique as well as fun. My daughter had a blast and couldn’t stop talking about her training session with Coach Bryan and she is excited about their next training session. I highly recommend Coach Bryan!!!

Bryan met with our son. He was very professional and showed him a skill he used in his next game. Our son responded to his instructions well and is excited to meet with him again.

Fantastic coach. Patient with our 8 year old son. Even after the first session have seen more confidence from our son.

Out of all the places I’ve taken my 8 year old daughter to learn how to strike the ball there has not been 1 instructor that has stopped to first show them proper posture and kicking technique. I asked Bryan to show her how to kick the ball and he did just that with the proper posture.

Coach Bryan was great. He made my son feel comfortable which is very important to us. Bryan was very professional and knowledgeable while down to earth at the same time. We would recommend Brian to anyone seeking to become a more rounded player, regardless of skill level.
