Warm-up is ball control specific. As a midfielder, first touch is priority. Depending what the client needs, conditioning is incorporated into a specific training. Whether it's striking, controlling in tight spaces, or accurate passing, physical training is involved. Expect lots of touches on the ball. I have a GoalKeeping 2 License, I can work with keepers up to the age of 15, in competitive travel.

He is great! Worked well with my son on skills training, which my son needed.

Coach Gerson is an amazing coach!!! Just after our second session we already had his team coach saying how much he had improved, and suggesting my son was ready to play at a higher level. He really emphasizes technique and getting ones basics perfect. I really appreciate his approach that focuses on having a strong foundation. He was willing and easily able to answer my sons questions. His feedback is useful and to the point! We look forward to working with him again!!!

Coach Gerson was exactly what we expected. My 16 year old son had recovered from injury and wanted to get his touches back. Coach Gerson has a tremendous work rate, positive mental attitude, and excellent communications skills. My son's conditioning, touches, and tempo improved in one session. We are looking forward to the next.

My daughter has really enjoyed her sessions with Coach Gerson — he comes up with fun and creative drills, and has very helpful insights into her strengths and weaknesses as a player and techniques for improving. We will look to continue working with him in the future!

Coach Gerson was very knowledgeable and my daughter was very happy with the lesson. We look forward to working with coach some more.

Great 1st training session. Looking forward to the next one!

Coach Gerson was the perfect match for my 13 year old son! After a non stop session he gave us a great evaluation of what his strengths and weaknesses were and written feedback so that he can practice at home until his next session. Most importantly my son ended the session feeling good about his skills and excited to work with Gerson again! Thanks Gerson!

My son had taken off a few years because he stopped liking soccer. This year, he decided to get back to it, and I hired coach Gerson to help my son. I can't be any happier with his help, and tutelage of my son Achu. He has giving him the tools to be a good mid-fielder and it is evident that my son is learning. I would recommend Gerson for anyone. He is worth every penny." Prab Patel (Phone number upon request).
My daughter was 3 when coach Gerson trained her, and by the time she played her first soccer game at the age of four, she was ready to play with big girls. She has great control of the ball, understand passing and is beyond her years in ball technique. I recommend Coach Gerson for any age." C. Kenny Vargas (Information upon request).
My son was interested in soccer when he first started the school soccer team in October of 2016. Now, due to the enthusiasm of Coach Gerson, my son can not stop playing even for a day. He has the passion and the desire and coach Gerson has been training him for a year and has helped him developed into a good player. My son, loves coach Gerson and continues to grow as a soccer player due to Coach's tutelage." Mariela (Information upon request).
