Coach Marcus was excellent! Better than I could’ve expected. He helped my son with some mechanics to prepare for a track meet. My son implemented those changes and won gold in all 3 of his events! Big thanks Coach Marcus!

Chris (CoachUp client)
Coach Marcus has made a major improvement on my son's start and drive phase in just one session. He kept everything simple so a 10 year old could understand it. He had a track meet the next day and not only did he remember everything but he put it to use he came in first with a 14.24 in the 100m. This was the first time he has ever ran this race and my son is looking forward to the next session.
Joe (CoachUp client)
First session with Coach Marcus went very well, he seemed to connect well with my son Ryan and gave him a heck of a work out! I thought the drills were right on with what we told Marcus he needed to work on! We have already scheduled a second session so will update in future! Happy so far!
Shankara (CoachUp client)
Coach Marcus is awesome!!!
My son Sachchit learned a lot of new techniques in the very first session. I am pretty confident Sachchit is in good hands with Coach Marcus. Looking forward to the next sesssion.
David (CoachUp client)
Coach Marcus was outstanding. He worked with our daughter through a series of training sessions focused on speed and soccer skills/agility. He was terrific. My daughter always looked forward to sessions with him and had a great time. I highly recommend Marcus!
Tonya (CoachUp client)
My 9 year old daughter had 5 soccer lessons with Coach Marcus and he was great. He kept her engaged and focused on the lessons and she had a great time. The written lesson plans were also very helpful for practice in-between sessions. I would definitely recommend Coach Marcus.
