Imagine getting to play the part of music that makes people dance. With 18 years of experience, I provide personalized guidance, helping you master techniques and unleash your musicality. Let's groove! I have been performing as a bassist for over 18 years, and teaching for over ten years. As an instructor, I meet students where they are and tailor my teaching approach accordingly. Lessons are collaborative; I want to get to know each student and your individual goals and learning style in order to create an open and comfortable learning environment.

"Eric is a fantastic coach, highly recommend!!!

Hello! I’m Seth. I love playing and teaching others golf. I have 16 years of golfing experience starting with high school competitive play and lessons with several coaches. Anything golf related you want to know, I should have the answer. I focus on swing fundamentals, theory, and game management. For absolute beginners, the goal is to never miss the ball. For the more intermediate players, the goal is to develop a consistent repeatable shot pattern. For advanced players, the goal is to be able to shape the ball on command and control ball flight.

"Seth was amazing! I can’t believe how much my confidence came back after just one lesson. I was hitting the ball straight and actually felt like I knew what I was doing. His instruction was clear, concise, and exactly what I was hoping for. He’s an incredible coach.

I had the best professional teachers from childhood. Maradona, Pele, and Phillips. A couple more, I’ll tell you in person. Pepperdine University graduate. I coached a lot of younger professional players when I was young, anything to get their attention and they listened. Euro 2024 and a lot of countries players. If you want me to coach your team to win a league it’s not difficult for me. I don’t need to play to coach. I prefer to play and coach.

For four decades, I've nurtured a love for soccer in players of all levels. My coaching emphasizes skill development, strategic thinking, and a lifelong appreciation for the game. Let's unlock your full potential on the field! Certifications & Badges UEFA B LICENSE USSF B LICENCE CPR CERTIFIED

"As my son put it "dad, he gets 5 out of 5 stars". Coach Branko showed my son great training techniques and built a great rapport with him instantly. My son felt very comfortable with Coach Branko and has learned so much from the first session. Coach Branko is very patient and knowledgeable. We will definitely be getting more sessions. Thanks Coach Branko!! -Michael
