Matt has been an invaluable mentor and coach for my teenage daughter. When I sought his guidance, I was looking for a strong male role model who could genuinely connect, empathize, and offer wise counsel. Matt far exceeded my expectations. He has not only helped my daughter gain greater self-awareness and improve her mindset, but he has also empowered her to develop healthier perspectives. With a perfect blend of empathy and tough love, Matt consistently challenges her behavior and choices, holding her accountable while inspiring action. His coaching doesn’t just motivate her—it energizes and pushes her to new heights. Matt goes beyond coaching; he actively fosters meaningful change and personal growth.

I'm super thankful for Coach Matt. His "cool," calm, and overall friendly demeanor makes it easy for him to draw out conversation from my teen son. Coach Matt's approach allows my son to process things and come up with some "next steps" as action points, something challenging for him to do on his own. He's built confidence in him, for sure. It is obvious that Coach Matt cares about his clients as he champions them in his intentional pursuit. I highly recommend Coach Matt!

Coach Matt is truly a life changer! He has a unique - almost magical - ability to get through to young people regardless of where they are mentally and emotionally. He is extremely professional, responsive, and produces incredible results! Most importantly, he truly cares about the well-being of the individuals who are in his care. He has been a tremendous blessing to my family and I highly recommend him!

Where do I even begin with my gratitude and reviews for Coach Matt who I many times nicknamed the Child Whisperer. Coach Matt has been an integral part of my son's life starting as his swim coach when my son was 4 and continuing as his mentor while my son is in college. Coach Matt is an amazing swim coach and can really dive into the technique and make recommended adjustments a necessary for proper strokes and faster swims. As an empowerment coach he is equally as remarkable. He was able to help navigate my son through the balance of a being a student athlete and the reminder while being an athlete is important it is one part of who he is as a person. Matt has an ability to connect with teens and dig deep into thoughts when a shoulder shrug is the normal reply . My son's success at a Service Academy is a testament to all the skills Matt helped him develop throughout his formative years and Matt is still available as a resource if needed navigating this new chapter of life.

I have recommended Matt to MANY friends who have all had equally as successful results with him. I truly will never be able to express my gratitude for all he has done for my son and my family.

Coach Matt has been our son's coach since he was 6!! This year, as a senior, August, our son, has reached new peaks in swimming that is an absolute testimony to the caliber of coaching from Matt. He placed second at Summer Junior Nationals in the 100 fly, got an Olympic Trial qualifying cut, was selected to be on the National Junior Team, and he is set to compete well in Winter Junior Nationals in a few weeks! Coach Matt's knowledge in the sport is only one part of the many elements that is brought to the table when he coaches. He develops an incredible personal relationship with each athlete. That deep bond creates a trust and ability to dive deeper than just the sport. Coach Matt helps the athlete fuse who they are personally with the skill set necessary in the sport and builds a champion mindset that has been proven time and time again!!

In 2019, I discovered Coach Matt while searching for a swim instructor for my three-year-old twins. As a concerned mom, I valued his ability to create a safe environment and teach them essential water skills. Coach Matt's gentle yet firm approach allowed him to focus on one child at a time, and I was impressed by how well my kids responded to him. Beyond swimming, he seamlessly incorporated life coaching into their sessions, initially surprising me. However, the impact on my twins' emotional well-being was evident, leading me to enroll them in dedicated life coaching sessions. Despite skepticism about coaching for four-year-olds, Coach Matt's guidance has been transformative. He has provided a secure space for my children to express their feelings and instilled a sense of control over their reactions. These lessons have not only influenced my parenting but also improved communication within our family. I am immensely grateful for finding Coach Matt and the positive impact he has had on our lives.

Coach Matt is not only great for athletes, but for anyone who wants to achieve a better and healthier lifestyle, both mentally and physically.
