Coach Miki is a former professional soccer player and licensed soccer coach based in Western North Carolina who trains players of all levels – Professional, National Team, Semi-Pro, College, Youth, & Adult Players.
Coach Miki’s journey began in Serbia, where he played in the youth first leagues for renowned clubs such as “Rad” and “Voždovac”, honing his skills and developing a deep understanding of the game. He later signed a professional contract with “Budućnost Dobanovci”, competing at the senior level and gaining invaluable experience in professional soccer.
My son has really enjoyed working with Coach Miki over the last several months. I really appreciate how he incorporates agility and plyometrics in with the soccer drills. In just a few short months, I’ve seen my son improve in both his soccer skills and in his general athleticism. My son also has a lot of fun and never turns down the opportunity to train with Coach Miki!

Coach Miki is truly one of a kind. His talent for soccer and heart for teaching are unparalleled. He’s encouraging, personable, responsive, and professional. My son, Malachi, has gained so much knowledge of the game and has grown as both a player and a person. We’re so thankful for Coach Miki’s role in my son’s soccer journey!

My son has played competitive soccer for a couple of years now and has gone to several soccer camps and workshops. He was having chronic hip pain and injuries seemed to happen often. Then a friend told me about Miki with his one on one training and group training. I’ll never forget how dumbfounded Marshall was when he got into the car after that first session. Miki had shown him the proper way to kick the ball which took away his hip pain! He also said Miki was one of the best coaches he’s ever trained with in the past three years. I watched several practices after that and began to see changes in my son’s ball control and ability to attack and defend. Miki is very in tune with each kiddo and what their needs are and how to help them grow as a player. If you have a kiddo who loves soccer and wants to play competitively I highly recommend Miki. No matter what, your kid will come out a better player and person. He is an outstanding coach.

My sons have been training with Miki for just over a year now, and the upleveling in their skills and increased passion for the game definitely comes from his strategic coaching style and inspiration. The individual focus that he provides, even amidst a group training session, is unique to his approach. Every element of training is methodically executed and always takes place in a very well-planned environment. We are so grateful for Miki’s influence in our children’s soccer journey and his professionalism as a coach/mentor is top-notch!

My boys have had the pleasure of training with Coach Miki and I can say it has been transformative for their game. Coach Miki takes the time to understand their strengths and areas for improvement, tailoring their sessions to their specific needs. The drills are challenging and fun, with a perfect balance of technique, fitness, and game awareness. Coach Miki pushes them while maintaining a positive and motivating environment. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the game and uses his expertise to help players of all levels elevate their skills – whether it’s refining footwork, improving ball control, or developing better understanding of positions. I can’t recommend Coach Miki enough!
