What Our Clients Say About Us

Average Rating: 5 out of 5 based on dozens of reviews
Incredible Coaching!
My son (10) started semi-private lessons with Diego this summer and I can already see an improvement. My son needed a little more individual attention than typically allotted for during a team practice and Diego filled that gap by immediately identifying issues, correcting technique, and slowing down the drills so my son could execute them properly and consistently. Diego is extremely approachable, encouraging and interactive. He also works on strength, endurance, and agility that has improved my son’s performance in other sports. I’ve also noticed an increased confidence and focus during game time. I would highly recommend Diego!

Best Soccer Academy Around!
Diego and Tekima Soccer academy are amazing! My son has trained with them for over a year now and his skills have grown exponentially! We saw an increase in his abilities immediately. He is much more confident with the ball at his feet and his foot skills are 10x better than they used to be. They teach not only soccer skills but they blend in athletic training and balance. Highly recommend using them!

Exceptional Training Experience!
Diego is an amazing trainer to my daughter! His drills are consistent and gradual as week over week she’s growing stronger and learning more. Not only has he helped her build amazing foot skills, but his training has also given her the confidence she needed to become a key player on her team. He is dedicated and genuinely cares about the growth of my daughters soccer career. I highly recommend Diego at Tekima Soccer Academy. We are lucky to be a part of this program!

A Game Changer for Young Athletes
Diego is hands down the best! My daughter has worked one on one with him for years. Diego is highly qualified and so positive. His training is techniques are amazing. He “tests” their ability and give you an assessment every so often to see the improvement. He combines soccer skills along with strengthening, endurance, agility, and body mechanics. My daughter had shown definite improvement as well as made high school team, starting many games. If your child is serious about soccer and wants to have fun, I highly recommend Diego!
