Types of lessons you can offer
Note: These structured lesson types below with payment acceptance and automated client communication are only available to All-In-One Coaches.
Clients send you footage from practice sessions or games. You use our best-in-class analysis tools to break down their technique and provide truly personal feedback.
This can include adding telestrated drawings, pro-player comparisons, voiceovered notations, or self-recorded video insights—even full technique demos—directly onto each client's returned footage.
In addition to everything your clients get with Analysis Lessons, use our ready-made remote lesson builder to add drills chosen to be the most beneficial for their progress, example pictures and videos of pro players to illustrate and model specific points, and even assign homework for clients to complete between lessons.
Connect with clients on a high-quality video call that includes a lesson timer and our live snapshot sharing, which allows you to point out mistakes in real-time. And no more back and forth with parents negotiating their lesson day, time, or price.
Our automated system handles the client management (including sending pre-lesson reminders and matching your time zones), so you can focus on teaching the game.
Get connected with vetted local clients on autopilot. Our request informs you of their age, experience level, availability, and distance from your main training location. That way, you can decide if they're a good fit for you.
If it's a match, we send you the player's and parent's name, phone number, and email address, so you can reach out and schedule your first pre-paid lesson together.

Before Coachly
If you’ve dabbled in giving online, AKA remote, sports lessons, you’ve likely felt the massive time-sucker that is negotiating and scheduling Zoom, FaceTime, or Instagram Live chats with multiple parents.
Let alone the client management stress of keeping track of everyone's payments, personal details, progress, and the drills and skills that you have already introduced in previous sessions.
If not live-streaming lessons, the other remote coaching option did previously involve parents sharing their athlete’s footage.
You might advertise for this service on your website, but you, likely, negotiated how to do this footage analysis process via text, email, or through social media.
Then used a file-sharing software (DropBox, Google Drive, WeTransfer) to share the athlete’s footage – or, gasp, tried sending video files over email.
Then you likely used a video analysis software to analyze the footage.
Then used another software to send the footage and your completed lesson package back, and then logged into a payment software (Venmo, CashApp, PayPal) to check on the lesson transaction.
This makes no sense. You should not need four different pieces of software to conduct a single client lesson.
Your in-person lessons came mostly from word-of-mouth. But you also advertised on social media and, possibly, on one of many coach listing sites.
Word-of-mouth is powerful, but if you’re early in your coaching career or looking to make a living with instruction, it’s often not enough.
If you have a large social media following, this can help attract new clients. But, if you don’t, you may have felt like you’re not growing your brand or revenue fast enough to thrive.
And, even if you’ve earned fans on social, you might’ve discovered that monetizing is a whole other ballgame.
This left those other coach listing services. Like Coachly, they use their own large-scale marketing efforts and software to connect you with local clients.
But these sites often work on a subscription model. Meaning they charge you monthly or annual fees just to list your in-person lessons.
They collect your hard-earned cash on auto-pilot, whether or not they connect you with viable, long-term clients. Some even have the gall to demand shared profits from you on multiple lessons, on top of charging their subscription fees.
This is just crazy. Saying that there needs to be another way is like saying athletes should keep their eyes open while competing – it should be obvious.

Coachly allows you to work with your clients however you see fit, from monthly recurring subscriptions to one-off lessons.
And the five main lesson types that you can offer are:
Live Call Lessons Connect with clients on high-quality video calls. All pre-lesson scheduling and client communication is automated for you.
And with things like sending clients start-time reminders and matching up time zones completely handled, you can just show up and teach.
Analysis Lessons Clients send you footage from practice sessions or games. You use our best-in-class analysis tools to break down their technique and provide truly personal feedback.
This can include using AI-powered skeleton tracking, telestrated drawings, pro-player comparisons, voice-overed notations, or self-recorded video insights – even full technique demos – directly onto each client's returned footage.
Full Remote Lessons Clients send you footage from practice sessions or games. You use our best-in-class analysis tools to break down their technique, along with our ready-made remote lesson package builder to add drills, pro player examples and assign homework to complete between lessons.

If it's a match, we send you the athlete's and parent's name, phone number, and email address, so you can reach out and schedule your first lesson together.
Chat Analysis Lessons You can alternatively work with your athletes using only our robust Chat feature. Once your client receives a personal invite from you to join the app or subscribes to this monthly lesson type, you can offer them video analysis, drills, pro player examples, links to group video call sessions or additional resources, and other ongoing lesson support all from within Chat.
Yes. The Coachly marketplace and all of the software and online lesson services it entails are 100% free to use for all coaches.
And whatever price you decide to charge for your amazing sports instruction goes directly into your bank account. The banks just charge a 3% processing fee, which you would encounter with any online payment provider, but we keep nothing.
We know your follow-up question is something along the lines of: How do you make any money?
For lesson clients who purchase instruction from our marketplace, we charge a 10% fee. This fee ensures that all lesson content and learnings remain cloud-stored in the client’s personal library.
This means that the knowledge you share as coaches can be referenced by your clients anytime to help accelerate their progress and prepare them for the big competitions that add up to an athlete’s career.
For Analysis and Full Remote Lessons, you may receive a wide variety of footage sent by athletes and parents.
They can film their athlete practicing at a local park, training facility, during their in-person lesson with another coach, in their backyard, garage, or living room – basically, they can film a Coachly lesson anywhere, anytime.
Pro Tip: After the very first lesson with a new client, you as coaches can begin requesting certain types of footage that help you further assess the athlete and give additional feedback.
For example, you may want footage of the lesson client performing the recommended drill that you taught them in their last sesson. Or, if you’ve been working with a client for a time and they have only ever sent over practice footage, you can request that they send over video of them preformning in live competitions.
Lastly, there are two ideal camera angles that clients will send you to analze.
We call the first angle Side View. These videos will be taken by filming the front of their athlete’s body as they execute their motions.
The second angle, called Back View, is optional but recommended. Filming from the back means doing so from safely behind their athlete. They’ll want to be slightly angled to the athlete’s open side, so you as coaches can see a fuller picture of their mechanics.
Live Call Lessons can be similarly diverse footage wise.
Different athletes may have access to different locations and different sports training equipment.
Coaches can request your preferred live call lesson setup for new clients with the customizable “Live Lesson Note” that goes out to all live call lesson clients automatically before they start their real-time session.
There are no coaching contracts whatsoever and zero obligations. You work for yourself only.
We are just a platform filled with every free tool you could ever want to help your coaching business grow and scale.
The only equipment you need is an iPhone or an iPad device.
Coachly lessons are not supported on Android devices – yet.
Our app works wherever you are – from your living room to a local park.
