Client Reviews

My son had a great session with Coach Odean! Definitely seeing improvement after one lesson.

Top notch elite most level! Honestly second to none!!!

Works great with kids highly recommend.

We missed session but Coach was understanding. We are planning a regular schedule with Coach.

Coach O was extremely well prepared and did an excellent job and helping me discover my flaws in running. I appreciate the help he provided and I look forward to the next session

Coach O was excellent. Took the time to assess my son, 15 skills, provided on the spot feedback, immediately found areas where he could improve. He also video recorded him and played it back so my son could see while showed him how to improve.
Very easy to talk to. Transparent and he enjoy coaching.
I recommend coach for any enthusiast or athlete looking for a track and field coach in the Dallas metroplex area.

I thought he was very patient with my daughter who is quiet, he showed me what she needed to improve on and I plan on working with him in the future

Coach Odean is phenomenal. Always encouraging and offers great feedback throughout the session. His drills are dynamic and keep you challenged.

My son went thinking that after a couple of years doing track, he would not learn anything that his school coaches have not already told him. After the session he could not believe all the new things that he learned that were holding him back from getting faster. Coach Odean did a great job and got him excited about his potential.

Very good coach was very technically on what I need to fix and made it fun will definitely suggest him as a coach to train with.

Odean was really good and didn’t waste anytime getting my son to work hard right into the training session. My son learned so much this first visit and is looking forward to improving to elite levels. Odean showed a lot of knowledge with run mechanics. He’s the real deal.

My first training session with coach Odean was insane, his intensity toward all of the nuance that comes with good running form was expressed all throughout the training session. His insight and personalized approach have shown me that good coaching is out there, and you, fortunately, don't have to look very far after finding coach Odean.
