Testimonials


“Alan’s work took our program to the next level. The modern athlete, especially in the college environment, needs a coach off the field that they can trust. Alan’s commitment to the boys was felt from day one, and the environment he created in his workshops gave the group a chance to open up and be vulnerable with each other.“
Sean Reilly, Manhattanville Men’s Soccer Head Coach and Skyline Conference Champions.
“Alan helped us achieve our goals as a team and created real conversations about our team vision moving forward. We used to struggle as a team when we’d go down in a game, and we would start pointing fingers and blaming each other. Alan gave us words and cues to help in those high-performance situations. He made us a better team and better individuals.”
Michael Mezzina, Manhattanville Soccer, Skyline All-Conference First Team and Champion
“Alan’s work with the Manhattanville women’s soccer team has been transformative. His approach to team communication and culture-building created an environment where our players felt empowered to express themselves and collaborate more effectively. Alan’s sessions provided our team with tools to navigate challenges, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships both on and off the field. As a result, our team became more cohesive, resilient, and focused on achieving shared goals. Alan’s contributions played a significant role in improving not just our performance, but also the overall experience for every member of the program.”
Peter Coughlan, Head Coach, Manhattanville University Women’s Soccer
