Hello, my name is Robert Reyes, I am a soccer coach/trainer in love with this sport. As a Latino I live soccer intensely, I try to instill in my players the necessary values to practice this beautiful sport. One of the problems that I notice in soccer here in the USA is the lack of understanding of the game, and I am not referring to the rules of the game, I am referring to understanding the essence of it, to be a great player you must dominate the field in everything its splendor, and that is my job, to make you develop your maximum potential. Many people believe that soccer is only played with the feet, but they are wrong, you need to train your mind to achieve the proposed objectives.

"My daughter has taken various lessons with coach Gustavo. She initially played with orange ball with a kid size racquet and had many issues in the group classes.

Brian brings a rare combination of rapid progression, high-level competitive experience, and analytical depth to his coaching. In just eight months, he climbed from a 2.7 to a 4.599 DUPR competing regularly with 4.5+ level players. That kind of trajectory isn’t accidental. It reflects deliberate practice, smart drilling, and a deep understanding of patterns, probabilities, and pressure moments. Brian doesn’t just teach shots—he teaches advantage. He thinks in terms of exchange ratios, positioning leverage, and when a speed-up truly earns you a 51–49 edge instead of opening you up to a counter. His fast hands and aggressive instincts are backed by thoughtful decision-making, helping players build controlled offense rather than reckless pace. What separates Brian is how clearly he sees the game. He understands rating systems, regional play styles, and how skill translates across levels. He’s studied what actually moves DUPR, what causes plateaus, and how to break through them—because he’s lived it. Whether you’re a 3.0 trying to stabilize your third shot, a 4.0 stuck at a ceiling, or a tournament player refining hands battles, Brian coaches with structure, intentionality, and measurable progress in mind. If you want to level up intelligently—not just hit harder, but win smarter—he’ll help you build a game that holds up under pressure. ^ yes, written by ai. real people don’t use that many em dashes. I prompted chatGPT to write a couple paragraphs about me based on the hundreds of internal conversations I had with it.

"Brian's lesson was amazing and I really enjoyed the 1 h lesson with my son. Brian has rich knowledge and improved our skills of pickleball.
