Bryan has worked with thousands of athletes across Canada in several sports performance arenas, such as: 

  • Hockey (QMJHL, AAA u18 u16 u15 u13 boys and girls, NHL referees) 

  • Soccer (University, Provincial, and club)

Bryan sees the athletes as Kids first and soccer players second with a solution-focused, strength-finding approach that allows all of the athletes to have fun, develop life skills and lastly, improve performance on the soccer pitch. 

Bryan is available for individual sessions with any of the athletes and is covered under most health insurance providers to assist the players in all aspects of life and sports. Bryan is thrilled to belong to the UDFC team.
