More About Coach James

I am a retired U.S. Army Soldier ("once a Soldier, always a Soldier"). My primary job in the Army was as a "JAG" (Judge Advocate officer / attorney) &, thanks to you, the taxpayer, as a Soldier, I was privileged to travel to many far-flung regions, to twice deploy, & to work with all sorts of people. One thing is for sure: “You’ve got to be fit to fight - & win!” That holds true both in the military & in the battles of life. You’ve got to take on the mantle of a holistic warrior - a Warrior for Life (or as I like to say, "Warrior IV Life") - heart, mind, body, & spirit!!!

Client Reviews

James did a great job working with my son. I could see improvement in the drills during the first session. Was very motivational to work hard during the session.

We absolute love Coach Eicher! Our daughter has shown big improvements in her skills and is playing a stronger game. He brings a very positive attitude and is so encouraging!

James does an amazing job. I could tell a difference in my daughter's shooting and dribbling just after 1 session. I highly recommend booking with James.

Coach James is awesome! My 8 year old loves working with him!

Very motivational and has a positive encouraging spirit. Very grateful to work with him. Knowledgeable on how to get results in reaching my goals. Look forward to my weekly workouts with Coach James.

The knowledge and enthusiasm Coach James shows are right at the top! Until I had a session with him I never knew how to have an effective warmup. I was amazed at how much I learned in just the first session about certain exercises and the various body parts that are worked. with each one. His training is valuable.

Coach James does an incredible job keeping my teenagers engaged and eager to learn more! His knowledge in martial arts/fitness and relatability is priceless! He is man of integrity and flexibility.

Coach Eich is an inspiration. He teaching this old dog new tricks!

Our experience with Coach Eich has been terrific. My son has greatly benefited from the direct one on one training and has already improved his game from the structured drills, guidance and boost of confidence Coach Eich has helped him find. The workouts are intense and we have been thrilled with our son's progress since working with Coach Eich.

Coach James has been a great coach, but more importantly, an inspiring mentor to our daughter.

My son has been frustrated with his shot so we booked a session with Coach James to give a fresh perspective. Coach listened well to what we were after and the sessions were focused on shooting. My son feels his shot has improved significantly (works every day until he makes 100 shots and he previously would be very frustrated after those sessions but not lately) and continues to book sessions with Coach James.

My son Logan did a lesson with this coach and enjoyed it a lot. He went through a lot of drills and was very positive. Logan looks forward to doing more in the future.

Great first session with lots of tips for my boys. I like the way coach James changes up the activities during the session. The boys were not bored at all and kept practicing drills they learned when we got home. Highly recommended.

Coach James has done an amazing job teaching my son new drills, improving his game, and most importantly giving my son his confidence back. Coach was really flexible to our schedule and was willing to meet us any where. I highly recommend coach James.

Coach James covered a lot in an hour! My grandsons confidence grew in just one session!

Coach James is great to work with and our son is really enjoying is coaching sessions.

James has done a great job with my son on his basketball techniques. My son enjoys all his sessions with him. He actually looks forward to working out now. I recommend James in every aspect of coaching and physical fitness.

We have been really pleased with Coach James. We have seen a huge improvement in our son's skills. He is literally outside every day without hesitation practicing to prepare for his next session with Coach James. I have been told and have accepted that I am a picky person and I would highly recommend him!

Coach James is a wonderful coach. He was very knowledgeable and easy to work with
