Client Reviews

Coach Marcus has been instrumental in working to improve all aspects for T/F while working with my son. He was able to help steer him from bad habits in training and warming up. One thing that measures Coach Marcus effectiveness is the willingness of my son to adapt to his guidance.

Coach Marcus is excellent, highly recommended. He's been working with my son and he is very knowledgeable, patient and reliable.

Marcus did an excellent job with my teenage daughter on high jump & sprint techniques

Coach Marcus was on time, professional and patient with my 11 year old daughter. She learned a few techniques that will help her with her high jump approach.

My daughter just had her first session with Coach Marcus and I was very pleased. Great Coach!!! Outstanding training regime!

Coach Marcus is awesome! He is coaching my son on the hurdles and he really takes the time to show the athlete the proper technique. He is passionate about track and it shows in his enthusiasm and dedication to helping the athlete achieve their goals.

Really good first impression! Marcus is really nice and encourages you not to give up even when you are struggling. It is clear that he is an experienced coach and that he knows a lot about track. His sessions work you hard, but they are definitely beneficial. Also, every drill and workout is specific for that athlete's event, which really helps to succeed. Can't wait for future sessions!

You never steered me wrong when it came to coaching and helped come up with a whole new 400 race strategy and I ran my fastest 400 time ever at duke cause of your help. You did what my coach been trying to do all season with me in a matter of two weeks. Everything you was showing me and James is the same exact stuff we doing here at our D1 programs.
