"I’m writing this review to highly recommend Coach Marcio Romero, who has had a tremendous impact on my athletic and technical development. Working with him has been a game-changer for me, especially in helping me prepare for two major milestones in my life: playing in the academy of Levante FC in Spain and earning a full-ride scholarship to Florida National University. Marcio was instrumental in getting me ready to train and perform at a higher level. His training programs were focused on important aspects of the game. Through a combination of strength and power training, conditioning, and skill development, he helped me transform my performance on the field. When I was preparing to go to Spain, Coach Marcio ensured I was in peak condition to meet the challenges of playing internationally. His personalized training program builds the stamina, explosive power and technical skills needed to represent myself well in the academy. More importantly, his guidance played a big role in me receiving a full scholarship to Florida National University. His belief in my potential, the time he invested in my progress, and his constant encouragement helped open that door. I credit a big part of that opportunity with his dedication and the work we put in together. If you're looking for a coach who can help you make it far as an athlete, I recommend Coach Marcio Romero. -Latyfath Ubeda

"My son started his guitar journey with Shannon just shy of his 9th birthday. At the time he was her youngest student. We could not have asked for a better teacher to foster his love of music and interest in learning guitar. Shannon is such an amazing teacher and truly cares and invests in her students. My son really gravitated to Shannon and loved his time with her. Together they built a great foundation of classical theory and technique. He really thrived under her tutelage and continues to improve his skills that he built with Shannon. I can't recommend her enough!
