"Every workout with PT had a purpose. Even when we competed playing ball together at the gym. He doesn’t just tell you what to do—he teaches you why, which completely changed the way I see the game. My basketball IQ, decision-making, confidence, and mental toughness all improved, and I became a better teammate and leader because of his coaching.

I've watched basketball for 9 years, played for a little, mostly pick up games and such. I do know proper form, I do know the plays coaches will want you to run and I do know how to get you in shape in order to have proper form and do what you need to do.

Hi! My name’s Edmundo, and I’m a former professional soccer player with experience playing in both the U.S. and Europe. Having competed at the collegiate and professional levels, I understand exactly what it takes to reach — and succeed — at every stage of the game. My goal as a trainer is to help players develop the skills, mindset, and confidence to make a real impact on the field. Every session is designed to challenge players in the right way, helping them grow not just technically, but mentally and physically as well.
