More About Coach Felipe
I am a former professional soccer player with 17 years of experience at the highest levels of the game, including 14 seasons in Major League Soccer and over 600 professional matches played. Throughout my career, I competed for clubs such as Montreal Impact, New York Red Bulls, Vancouver Whitecaps, D.C. United, Austin FC, and most recently Orlando City, where I retired in 2024.
My passion for soccer goes beyond the field—I have dedicated myself to mentoring and coaching young athletes, helping more than 100 kids develop not only as players but as people. I believe soccer is more than a game; it’s a tool to build discipline, resilience, humility, and teamwork.
I hold a USSF B Coaching License, am currently enrolled in the USSF A Coaching Program, and I am also furthering my leadership education through the Harvard Business Program. These experiences continue to shape the way I teach, lead, and inspire the next generation of athletes.
600+ professional games played across North America & internationally.
Experience competing against some of the best players in the world.
Proven record of mentoring and developing youth athletes.
Actively pursuing advanced coaching and leadership education (USSF A License & Harvard).
A love for the game and a strong desire to give back to the next generation.
⚽ Private Training Sessions – Tailored drills to improve technical ability, tactical awareness, and overall confidence.
⚽ Mentorship & Guidance – Beyond soccer, I help athletes build mindset, discipline, and resilience.

Technical Development – First touch, passing, dribbling, shooting, and overall ball mastery.
Footwork & Agility – Improving balance, speed, coordination, and movement efficiency.
Fitness & Game Conditioning – Building the strength, endurance, and quickness needed to perform at your best.
Tactical Understanding – Learning how to read the game, make smarter decisions, and play with confidence.
Mindset & Mentality – Sharing what it takes to be a professional athlete: discipline, resilience, and leadership both on and off the field.

Client Reviews
Linette (CoachUp client)
We recently had our first session with Felipe and I couldn’t be more impressed. In just one session, he accomplished so much with my son. Felipe immediately observed his strengths and weaknesses and pinpointed the areas he needed to work on, tailoring the session to meet his individual needs.
You can tell he is incredibly passionate about soccer and is deeply knowledgeable about the sport. The attention to detail during the session was remarkable, ensuring every movement, drill, and explanation served a purpose.I highly recommend Felipe for anyone looking for a coach who combines expertise, passion, and the ability to truly connect with their players.
Ryan (CoachUp client)
Great first session! My 7 year old sons session with Coach Felipe was fast paced and full of drills he'd never done before. While he said it was the toughest practice he'd ever had, he was also very excited for the next one which is always a plus for a player of his age.
If your child is set on getting to the next level, its usually going to be a good coach that helps them get there. My son will benefit from the passion for the game, patience for a younger player, and experience shown by Coach Felipe.
Practice like its a game and you'll be prepared to play on game day.
Adrianne (CoachUp client)
My 10 year old did a session with Coach Felipe and loved it more. The session was organized, challenging, motivating, and incredibly fun for my soccer player. Coach Felipe took the time to really talk to him about soccer and offered encouragement and feedback the entire time. Amazing coach and session! Thanks, Coach!
