Coach Kwaku has been great as he has been working with my 11 year old daughter, she has enjoyed the first 2 sessions, they have been intense and demanding sessions but coach Kwaku knows how to incorporate into a fun experience for her she has looked forward to each session and is looking forward to her 3rd one this week, her footwork, stamina and agility has improved we look forward to more great results

Thanks
Scott

Coach Kwaku trained my 12 year old son over the summer of 2014 and we had 22 wonderful sessions which were also very demanding and engaging sessions. My son's speed and agility, ball control and dribbling skills has tremendously improved and he is now one of the leading scorers and mid-fielders on his team. Coach Kwaku's speed and agility sessions are the best in this region, and they are very intensive, tough and demanding. Your child's speed, pace, strength (mental toughness and physical strength) will definitely get better and improve. Your child will be assessed each week using a scorecard given by Coach Kwaku that contains instant feedback on any areas that need immediate attention or improvement. Coach Kwaku's training also has helped my child's overall self-confidence on the field. Coach Kwaku is simply the best!
My son had the best speed and agility training sessions with Coach Kwaku from March through June this year (2015). My son's time in the one mile run has significantly improved. His endurance and strength levels have also significantly improved. Coach Kwaku is one of the best Speed and Agility Soccer trainers in this Washington DC-Virginia-Maryland area for Youth Soccer Players. Well done!!
Coach Kwaku is very knowledgeable in soccer techniques and coached my son in the area of his ball control and passing. My son has greatly improved in that area, and we saw immediate results after a few sessions. I highly recommend Coach Kwaku.
Coach Kwaku is highly experienced with lots of international experiences, and provided top quality level coaching to my 2 sons in the areas of speed and agility, shooting, passing and dribbling. My sons improved tremendously and are now leading scorers on their teams. Coach Kwaku is very calm and yet also very highly demanding and results driven. Coach Kwaku emphasizes physical fitness and mental toughness and expects that from his students. I highly recommend him without any reservation.
