I'm attentive to every aspect of the player--mental, physical, intellectual, and social/emotional--as needed. I focus on mechanics and approach, but I also emphasize injury prevention, repeatability, and understanding more than many other coaches do; I think it's easier to repeat a motion, and find your comfort zone mechanically, when you have a truer understanding of what you're doing. Skill and talent are indispensable, but between the ears is where many of the game's successes begin.

First, I love the game of Baseball.
Hitting: I can see just from your swing and how you move your body, Tells me what you need to do to maximaze your batting. I have many techniques that I break down to correct your swing.
Pitching: There are 9 moves in a pitching motion that needs to be done to fully throw a great pitch. I can show you how to stream line your motion and build speed and movement in each pitch you throw.
Just like hitting, You need to rely on your legs as much you use your top half of your body. Your legs are very important to your game. It's the base.
Fielding: Glove work - Throwing - Setting up the feet to

Baseball is 90% mental 10% skill. We first work on the mindset for the player wanting to go to the next level. In order to do that you need a coach. a coach that has played on all levels but also has been coached by the best in the game. Baseball is an amazing game, with an amazing history and you win with the fundamentals first. My speciality was speed, speed, and more speed. Defensive was another speciality as I played centerfield with pride and could track down line drives and take charge of the outfield. I knew how to get on base and put pressure on the pitcher and catcher. You will learn this as well.
