Building a better way for
freelance sports coaches
and learners to connect

I'm working on an app that lets instructors set their own rates, locations, and schedules for lessons or group sessions (mountain biking, kayaking, snowboarding, running, football, etc.). Learners could find and book them easily. Nothing is built yet — I'm just trying to figure out if this solves real problems.

The Honest Story

📍 KELOWNA, BC

Hi, I'm Luke

I love outdoor sports and I've seen how hard it is for freelance instructors to find steady clients and for people to find good coaches that fit what they want.

I'm exploring whether a simple marketplace app could help. No commitments, no app exists yet — just trying to learn from real coaches and athletes.

What I'm Thinking

  • Is this actually useful for instructors and learners?
  • What problems need solving first?
  • Would people actually use this, or is it solving a problem that doesn't exist?

"Before I spend months building something nobody wants, I need to hear from you."

EARLY CONCEPT

How It Could Work

This is what I'm thinking — but I want to know what YOU actually need.

Create Your Profile

Showcase your expertise, credentials, and coaching style

Set Your Rates & Availability

You control pricing, schedule, and session locations

Host 1-on-1 or Groups

Offer private sessions or group classes anywhere

Get Paid Automatically

Platform handles payments (keep ~85%, we take ~15%)

For Learners

Athletes could find and book coaching easily:

Search by Sport/Location/Skill Level

This is just an early concept

I need your input to know if I'm even on the right track. What would you change? What's missing? What sounds terrible?
