One-on-one soccer training at a field near your home.
Individual skill development — first touch, ball control, and technique that holds up under pressure. No facility to drive to, no membership, no contract.
Winter indoor options available — ask about current availability.
What a session actually looks like
Sixty minutes, and every minute has a purpose.
1
Warm-up with the ball
Pre-activation, not a workout. Most young players arrive with their core and legs asleep.
2
Technical block
Ball mastery, first touch, or whatever the assessment showed is the real limiting factor.
3
Pressure block
The same skill under tempo — because a move that only works standing still is not a move.
4
Application
1v1s, finishing, or decision-making work that puts it into a game shape.
5
What to practice before next time
You leave with something specific, not “keep working hard.”
Real progressions I use — wall work, because it is the one tool every player already has:
Basic patterns — rhythm and both feetFirst touch — receiving under paceGame patterns — a decision attached

Why me
The potential was always there. What I did not have was anyone showing me how to get at it — and gold still in the ground is worth nothing. I could not win a one-on-one through most of high school, not for lack of ability but for lack of a method. What changed was learning a real system of technical training from European mentors, then building on it and developing my own approach until I took my game to a level I had not believed was available to me. By early college I craved 1v1s.
That path is why I coach the way I do. I know what it looks like when a player is doing a drill wrong, because I did it wrong for years before anyone showed me the system.
Three decades
Playing, studying and breaking down the game.
A real system
Technical training learned from European mentors, developed over years into my own method.
The physical side
Background in anatomy and physiology — it is not guesswork.
Hundreds of athletes
Coached one-on-one, not in a group of twenty.
Frequently asked questions
How much does private soccer training cost in Columbus?
My rate is $70 per hour for individual sessions, or $60 per session on a 10-session package. Small group rates are lower. Most facility-based academies in Columbus charge $130–165 per hour.
Do you come to us?
Yes. I train at outdoor fields near your home across Columbus and the north and west suburbs. You are not driving across town twice a week.
What age do you work with?
Youth players through high school. The session is built around the individual player, not an age bracket.
How often should my child train?
Once a week produces steady progress. Twice a week moves faster. The bigger factor is what they do between sessions — which is why every session ends with something specific to practice.
What if we are not sure what my child needs?
That is normal, and it is my job to figure out. The first session includes an assessment so we work on the actual limiting factor rather than guessing.
