More About Coach Eric

I have coached athletes and helped others train to get in shape, lose weight or reach whatever goal it is that they want. I am a former collegiate sprinter (100m, 200m, 400m, relays) and continue training and running.

My sessions are specialized to each athlete but all focus on technique, form and making sure athletes do what's necessary to stay healthy.

I am an olympic development level soccer player that turned into a collegiate track & field sprinter that focused on 100, 200, 400 and relays. Since college, I have focused on longer distances and have competed in countless 5ks, 10ks, half marathons and marathons all around the world.

My sessions are specialized to each athlete but all focus on technique, form and making sure athletes do what's necessary to stay healthy.

Generally, sessions begin with a comprehensive warm-up, followed by an intense workout that caters to a need that the individual needs.

Client Reviews

Coach Eric has been working for a couple sessions with my 9yr old. He has been very successful in keeping his motivation up and driving him forward.

Great coach, easy going demeanor. Is able to break down the technical aspects in sprinting and quickly find solutions to make improvements. I feel confident he’s the right coach for my son as he works on getting faster.

My son had a great session Coach Eric. He gave him great instruction to get ready for high school track season. Showed him what to do and avoid when sprinting. He is wealth of knowledge on following routine and track workouts to do on his own. My son is very happy with coach Eric.

Coach Eric throughout the whole time I've worked with him has helped me to greatly improve my all round ability as a sprinter. When I first began my sessions with him I was relatively inexperienced in the blocks and was really tight as a runner. Throughout three weeks my starts have gone from iffy to not only competent but competitive for the high school level. My form as well has improved especially in the glide phase. Overall coach Eric has made me a much better sprinter in such a short time and I'd recommend him as a coach for anyone looking for big improvements.

Coach Eric is awesome. I started by signing up for only one session with him and now I just renew my second package. I am a new runner and Coach Eric made me feel comfortable about my limitations. Our training sessions have always been challenging and fun. He always make sure I can improve my time/pace without getting hurt. I highly recommend Coach Eric to anyone.

Eric had the first visit with my 28yr old son yesterday - helped him begin his journey to meet his fitness running challenge and goals! Yayy! Eric is kind, low key, and inspiring. Thank you!

Eric has been working with my 13 yr old son for a few months and is doing a great job! He’s a pleasure to work with, super knowledgeable and able to relate to kids and our overall goals. Already noticing the improvement and looking forward to future sessions! Definitely recommended to anyone who wants to improve their speed, strength, endurance and technique. Thanks Eric!

Great first meeting- rebooked and now following a customized plan to meet my running goals. Very satisfied with Coach Eric.

I gained a lot of insight from even the first session.

Eric was fantastic. He knows how to work with kids. Identified some specific issues with my som’s sprinting form and offered corrections and suggestions for improvement. Best of all, he is well aware of how to interact with and motivate kids.

Looking forward to working with him some more.

As an adult wanting to get into sprinting, I wasn't sure what to expect from my first session, but Coach Eric made the session super fun and informative. He gave me concrete tips on my form, took me through drills to improve different aspects of sprinting, and sent me a detailed email with feedback on the session. He is also just very friendly and approachable. I would highly recommend him!!

All I wanted several years ago was to jog for thirty minutes straight like I did in my twenties. As soon as I signed up with Coach Eric I reached that goal within a month. After four years with Coach Eric I've been jogging five days a week, stretching, and working on my core, as well as weight training. Coach Eric is an angel who works with gentle encouragement to help me reach my goals really fast. My measurements got better since training with Coach Eric. He definitely gets five out of five stars! He has my highest recommendation. Thanks, Anita Dhekne

Coach Eric is great coach and motivator. My son Christopher has really been enjoying his coaching advise to get faster and more effective on track. Great personality!

Eric was terrific! He gave my daughter great coaching of her running technique and training. Eric demonstrated the proper form for her, and gave her personalized tips. Also, explaining the importance of conditioning, preparation for, and focus during competition to both my daughter and me was super helpful.

Great workout and learning experience!

Very attentive, knows what he's talking about. He gave me very solid feedback which I could use to change my form

Very helpful to my high school age son helping him with exercises to improve his explosiveness and endurance. Have seen improved performance from my son this year.

Eric thoroughly evaluated my son and layed out a starter plan to improve his specific needs.

Excellent first session with more to come!

Eric is a very nice, down to earth guy and he really knows his stuff -- he also knows how to coach kids, and is great at establishing a rapport in order to effectively teach them. My daughter is a competitive soccer player who wants to get faster, and Eric is working with her to improve her sprinting form. Because my daughter is a soccer player, Eric catered his training to focus on the "30 yard sprints" that soccer is all about. He does a great job diagnosing her issues in order of importance, and explaining them to her in a way that she understands. Eric is also giving her very practical exercises to help her retrain her running style. I recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their sprinting form. And like I said, he's a really nice guy, good personality.

Eric is an excellent coach. He has detailed knowledge of the mechanics of sprinting and warm-up drills.
He also has a keen eye for picking up the flaws in a runner's mechanics.

Did lessons for sprinting and had great experience. Excellent instruction and a really nice person and coach.
