As an ex-professional player and Head Coach of CANXL Soccer (a soccer trainer certification company) based in Toronto, I offer private soccer training that focuses on the five pillars of player development: ball mastery, athleticism, tactical awareness, football actions and mental resilience.
My lessons are tailored to each athlete’s goals, age and skill level, incorporating stage based progression, video feedback and data driven drills.
Whether you want to refine your first touch, sharpen decision making under pressure or improve overall fitness, I provide a structured yet enjoyable training environment that fosters long-term growth and confidence.

Zak is an outstanding coach with a wealth of knowledge in individual soccer training and athlete development. He's incredibly organized, great to work with, and genuinely invested in helping each player improve and reach their full potential. His passion for the game and commitment to his athletes really stand out. I highly recommend Zak to anyone looking to take their soccer skills to the next level.
As a soccer club, we have worked with CANXL and Zak many times over the years. He's always been a consummate professional and great to work with. He's been key to helping us achieve the success we have. Highly recommend for any young ballers looking to take their game to the next level.
Hands down one of the best coaches. Zak is incredibly patient, focused, fun to work with, and have your best interest at heart. He knows how to push you to be better, and how to keep you engaged and apply the skills learned during sessions with him. I have seen remarkable improvements since training with Zak and I'm very grateful towards him, for making my soccer improvement journey not only meaningful but also a fun one.
Knowledgeable, inventive, fun, and kind.
We were former teammates in college, he was and still is a mentor of mine in honestly all facets of life!My husband was speaking really highly of Zak.
Your passion towards the sport, leadership, and energy to push the players to do better. Your inspiration and motivation make a real difference. Thank you for everything you do. You really care for each and every player, and that is the most precious thing that a parent can ask for.
It is really rare to find such gems like you. You are doing a very good job and using your skills to help the players.Zak is a great player and a skilled coach. He cares about his craft and supporting young players in their soccer development. His google reviews tell a better story than I can!
While we were visiting Toronto from Madrid with our two boys, we managed to find Coach Zak from google for a soccer training session for the kids. He was very quick with response and coordinated a field and time to accommodate us on a very short notice. He proactively asked us if there was any specific training our boys needed. He was well prepared for the training. Given our boys have been training in Madrid, we came with a high expectation in terms of training quality, and TBH Coach Zak provided the highest quality that you would typically experience in Europe. We will back in Toronto in August and will definitely reconnect with Coach Zak and we highly recommend Coach Zak to anyone who is looking for the top quality soccer training.
