“Here’s what I learned in one hour: Teach your feet to anticipate the ground and to be ready. Put ready position already as soon as I hit the ground. So the anchors and foot are stiff it doesn’t need to go through the flexation process. When kicking with the laces foot, laces side is always locked. When kicking through the ball don’t hop kick through.

Take a step through over the ball arm crossing short explosion. When standing on the field, don’t stand perpendicular. Teammate stands parallel so that you can see. That way you receive the ball and have a way to look up too: standing perpendicular cuts you off half the field.

Sometimes it’s the weight of the touch. And when using your chest, put your arms forward. That causes the muscle on the pick to soften up. Then it hits that piece.”

“I have worked with Coach Fierro during my offseasons for the past 2 years and I plan to keep working with him until the end of my professional career. The intensity of his sessions is top-tier, but he also knows how to manage loads which makes my recovery process a lot easier to handle. Thanks to his training, I have been able to come into pre-season with a great rhythm of play and ready to earn my spot day in and day out. Looking forward to getting to work with him next off-season.”

“You rarely find a good coach that can relate to multiple ages and experience levels. I saw him coach a 6-year-old, my 11-year-old, a high schooler, and a semi-pro at individual times… I highly recommend him for any developmental level. A few things stood out to me first: within 5 minutes of meeting my son, he talked about the opportunity and what kind of goal he wanted to set for himself. Second he is an active & involved coach. Instantly he figured out where my son needed to improve and customized the session for him. He doesn’t stand around and call orders. He is actively engaged, giving his all and being present with each player. He develops their skills, strengthens their endurance, and helps them identify goals, teaching valuable soccer skills while enhancing the athlete as a whole person.”

“We booked coach Raul for my 7 yr old. He played a couple of seasons but was afraid to get the ball. Coach Raul has taught him posture, a better and easier way to handle the ball, and has helped with his confidence. We have seen an improvement in confidence through the season and started playing and enjoying offense. My son loves to go to practice and I’m impressed with his development.
