"Excellent first lesson and looking forward to more training with Michelle!

For over two decades, I've had the privilege of playing the beautiful sport of soccer and sharing my passion with teammates, coaches, and youth players. My coaching blends technical expertise with a focus on fostering a love for the game, ensuring each student reaches their full potential. Throughout my soccer career, I've had the opportunity to play on a C1 and Premier traveling team, was a Varsity starter throughout my 4 years of high school, and played all 4 years at a Division II college. Outside of my traveling, high school, and college team, I also made the Minnesota State and Regional Olympic Development Program team for 5 years. I enjoy coaching and seeing youth players get excited about the sport of soccer. Throughout the years I've coached in a variety of ways whether it was through age group training, team training, private lessons, or coaching traveling teams. Small group training or private lessons are my favorite because it allows me to focus on an individual and give them undivided attention to ensure they are leaving a better player than when we started the session. I look forward to working with you or your soccer player looking to grow in their soccer career!

"I'm very happy with how all my lesson have been, especially since I learned to control ball direction that includes how to intentionally draw or fade my shot. Though I need to work on my weight forward and eventually increasing my distance, I feel more confident about controlling ball shape now. I need a bit more practice getting through the ball consistently, but I think with Johns suggestions I’m seeing real progress. If you're working on improving ball striking and specific shot shaping, get with John Wagner. I have made significant progress in just 4 lessons. I’ve taken numerous lessons from multiple pros over many years and John is the best coach I’ve ever worked with.
