Testimonials from the Pitch
“Training with Daniel over the last 4 weeks has helped me to become more in control of my body movement on and off the field. The exercises we worked on specifically focus on balance and stability which helps to improve your biomechanics and agility on and off the ball. Daniel tailors each session to the needs of individual clients based off of their specific needs which provides players with a bespoke experience. I would recommend training with Daniel if you want to have a better understanding of the human body in order to improve your sports performance.”- Payton O’dell, Amateur footballers
“Yeah also I wanted to take time and I don’t usually do this but today I got a starting roll on the first team in west valley and honestly couldn’t thank you enough for getting this far , a year ago I was on the bench playing with kids my age and on the lowest level for the worst team and now I am in one of the best ever spots . So thank you for everything” – Diego Ramirez, West Valley United U19 player
“So far the training has helped me feel better on my feet and with the ball. Meaning moving with the ball more comfortably and confidently as well, sort of getting into that flow state we talk about. Another thing the training had helped me with is learning different turns i can do in the mid when receiving the ball, as well as getting into the habit of lifting my head up and checking my shoulders. I feel like its also made my movement quicker in general and decision making with the ball. And yes i definitely do feel lighter on my feet and just more comfortable in general.” – Lorenzo Boch, North Valley United Player
