Hitting lessons are tailored to each individual, depending on his or her specific needs. Particular focus is applied to the correct use of the legs and hips and the proper positioning and path of the hands from start to finish. We do a lot of tee work and short toss, with drills sprinkled in where needed. I use video analysis during most lessons so players can take part in breaking down their own mechanics and making adjustments. My goal is to (1) have each player understand his or her own swing and know the components of a correct swing, and then (2) get the correct mechanics into the player's muscle memory. My hitting lessons are pretty detailed and mechanical. I'm a nuts and bolts kind of a guy. I believe hitting is a science (physics) - it's about force, timing, angles, etc. I want to teach my players to do it all correctly. If a player truly wants to get better and get into the mechanics of the swing, it doesn't really matter what age he or she is.
Pitching lessons for baseball focus primarily on mechanics, including balance, hand separation, arm path, release point and finish. For more experienced pitchers, specific lessons have been designed as follows:
