More than an academy.

Built by a coach who wished this existed.

JStarz Training was founded by Jordan Ellis, a Jamaican-born Canadian coach who grew up loving the game and wishing he’d had access to the kind of support, development, and mentorship JStarz now provides. What started as a passion became a purpose: a space where players of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities feel welcomed, supported, and challenged to grow.

Sessions feel less like traditional training and more like a family. Players are encouraged to express themselves, make mistakes and grow, and compete, laugh, and build confidence. Parents are part of it too. We specialize in individual and small-group training (4–6 players max) for maximum touches and coach interaction — and we’re proudly club-neutral. All teams, all backgrounds. If it involves a soccer ball, we do it.
