Client Reviews

Phillip really enjoyed working with Kyle. He liked his coaching stye and felt he was very supportive. He looked forward to every session. I would definitely recommend him. He is very organized and responsive. A pleasure to work with.

Coach Kyle was simply amazing! From start to finish, he exemplified professionalism, passion and patience with our first time player who is 8 years old! He offered so much in such a short amount of time! Our son is picking up soccer skills rapidly from Coach Kyle and we couldn't be happier with our choice!!! Outstanding is the best word to describe Coach Kyle!

Skilled professional and knows what he is talking about. Perfect session.

Coach Kyle is fantastic! He is a professional player and knows soccer by heart. He is extremely patient and supportive to top it off. Good guy, good coach. I would recommend him to anyone.

Kyle was a great partner to have for training. As a professional myself, I got a lot out of every session Kyle ran. He is always able to get the best out of me and get me ready before preseason.
Kyle uses his vast experiences as a professional footballer from environments he's experienced all over the globe and applies them in his training techniques. Whether it's 1 on 1 training sessions or with a group, the sessions are always well thought out and very professional. The knowledge and intensity of training always makes me feel like I'm improving and gives me something to take away from the sessions.
Any aspiring soccer player who is serious about getting better should look to train with Kyle Porter. During my time as a D1 athlete, I trained with Kyle in the offseason and every session was an experience. His training style is refreshing and inspirational and it greatly contributed to me returning to school in top shape.
Kyle trained me as I was approaching my first NCAA DIV 1 season. He set my standards high and helped me train at a professional level. The session was all game realistic and forced me to push myself. After a couple of sessions with him I noticed that my fitness and my level of play was improving. My touches and fitness was on when I got to school. As a freshmen, I was able to start.
In all honesty, I think Kyle is one of the most exciting additions that we’ve added to the group this offseason,” head coach Gary Smith said. “He’s quick, he’s powerful, and he is a very talented player. Individually, he’s capable of producing excellence on the ball in 1-versus-1 situations and he has an extraordinary eye for goal at this level. Talent-wise, he’s certainly in the top-10 in this league on an individual level,” Smith said. “I think he just needs some stability, and he will find that here. With some good direction and a very well-organized group, we know he’s capable of performing at the highest level. For forwards and the creative-type players like him, it’s all about productivity - goals and assists. He brings the ability to produce those special moments in Atlanta. It certainly helps to have players in your group that have won silverware,” Smith said. “He’s shown that he scores goals and is very effective at every level. I think Kyle, over the last couple of seasons, hasn’t had the most consistent string of playing time, with loans and changes in his situation,” Smith said. “He’s had ups and downs; he’s had times he’s been effective but can’t seem to grab the minutes he needs too. I think he just needs the right home to show what he’s capable of, and I think this is the place he will be able to show what he’s capable of. He has so much to offer as he enters what’s sure to be the prime of his career.
I've played in the MLS for a number of years and have always respected Kyle as a player. Now that I've been fortunate enough to be a teammate of Kyle's, on a numerous of occasions I've had the opportunity to train with him on my fast feet and ball control. Training individually with him and working with him on my technique has helped my game and allowed me to be more sharper in my play. He is a great player who has a truly unique skill set.
