Two sessions in with Coach Edwin and we are already seeing improvements with our daughter. I would definitely recommend coach Edwin to anyone.

Edwin is a talented and knowledgeable coach. My 10 year old son has improved after only a handful of lessons. He takes the time to evaluate his strengths and weaknesses and creates a personalized session based on his needs.

Edwin is very talented and motivating. My daughter has played soccer for 8 years and was looking for one on one training refresher before season started and he was the best match. Very knowledgeable and patient. Great experience and I highly recommend Coach Edwin!

Great first one-on-one coaching.

Coach Edwin Samuel was very helpful and a lot of fun to work with. His training helped me improve my technique and I’m excited to keep training with him. I would reccomend him to anyone just getting started in soccer, orwho’s been playing for years or anywhere in between.

Great coach! I highly recommend him.

Coach was great. My daughter often takes a while to warm up to people, but by the end of our first session I could tell she was comfortable. He immediately saw where she needed the most work and gave her drills that were challenging but doable. We will definitely go back!!

Coach Edwin is awesome. He gets in there with my son and keeps him on his toes and has him focusing on skills for ball control and agility. We will continue to train with him as we have seen a big improvement in our son's soccer skills and confidence.

My son 13 years old son just had a tryout workout with Coach Edwin. It was a great. Coach Edwin worked hard on my son, step by step. I will book again.

My son is a 6 years old with a little above average skill level and passion for football. We hired Coach Edwin to help him improve and increase his skills. Within the first three sessions we can see drastic improvements that are exciting to watch. The methodology coach Edwin uses proves to work with our son. He makes our son go through various drills with focus on form, accuracy, and intensity. We're happy to have found Coach Edwin and we highly recommend him for anyone that wants to improve their game.
