About
We have been in business teaching student-athletes for the last 15 years. We have a teaching background as well as an athletic background that allows us to relate to the student-athletes we interact with and help grow. Our goal is to create better athletes but more importantly better people.
I have been working with children of all ages since I was a high school student. The opportunity to interact and teach children is rewarding in itself but when you see yourself truly making a difference in their childhood whether it be athletically, mentally or socially there is not a better feeling.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
The ability to work with and teach children whether it be a student or student-athlete is unique to each individual because everyone is different. Trying to get to know someone helps break any potential early apprehension or tension by asking some basic questions; favorite show? favorite food? etc. This way the development and abililty to interact can begin and the basis of instructing becomes easier when people can relate with one another.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been working with children for over 20 years as a counselor, high school teacher and baseball coach. I graduated from college with a degree in Physical Education and Exercise Science as well as competing at a Division I collegiate level in baseball. I also had a professional tryout with the Montreal Expos after college and have been teaching/instructing baseball for the past 15 years.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
