Private Lessons & Coaches in Issaquah, WA

I teach all levels of baseball. I played division 1 baseball as well as being an elite hitter throughout my entire life. Injury ended my career and my pursuit now is to teach others how to become an elite baseball player and achieve their goals and dreams. I focus mainly on hitting and fielding and the correct ways to play those positions.

I’m Sammy. I played baseball at Grady’s Harbor College back in the day and coached quite a bit of softball and baseball. I’m have a big emphasis on mechanics of pitching and hitting and fielding mid level to high level players. Newer players are welcome as well. Haven’t coached in a few years but I’m looking to get back into it. I’m a big proponent of taking care of your body and your arm properly because without it why are we training? I’m high energy and try to have fun while teaching.

Classically trained pianist since the age of 5, I also played tenor/alto/bari sax & bassoon. I sing, compose, arrange, produce & most of all I really love to share the joy of music. I have been performing & creating music for most of my life & am now recording & releasing my own songs. My greatest accomplishment is building HopeFire Studio with the help of some amazing people who took time to mentor and support me. I am excited to be adding the Quaver Ed Music Production coursework Summer 2026!

"Our 10 year old son has been working with coach Eddie for three months and we have seen huge improvements in our son’s skill level and attitude towards practice. Eddie comes prepared to every session with well thought out drills and lessons. He has clearly thought through a variety of ways to teach each skill and given thought to progression over time. He is patient, kind, and hard working. Our son is excelling and has a more focused (but also fun) outlook on practice. He has been very open of our feedback and input on things we want to see in lessons and is a great collaborator. He has also been very flexible when we have needed to cancel or move a lesson over the summer when our schedules have been more fluid. We would highly recommend Eddie to anyone with kids looking to grow as basketball players.

A seasoned artist sculpting harmonies for over two decades. My musical odyssey began with six years of formal piano training, evolving into a singing journey that kicked off at the tender age of seven within the welcoming walls of my childhood church. At 21, I entered the world of recording, becoming an internationally distributed recording artist. With a wealth of studio recordings and live performances, I've fine-tuned the art of creating musical magic. Join me in unraveling the symphony of sounds that have defined my melodious sojourn!

"He’s an excellent teacher for my 16 year old. She’s gained confidence, stage presence, and I hear the growth in her voice. Thanks, Teacher Luther

I’m Wayne Mendezona, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Corban University and founder of Quick Handle Basketball. I’ve spent over 30+ years developing athletes and have trained more than 50,000 players—from youth to college and professional levels. I specialize in ball handling, scoring, and game performance—helping athletes build confidence, decision-making, and real in-game results. My training is not just drills—it’s about developing complete players who can perform under pressure, think the game, and separate themselves from the competition. I don’t train average. I train athletes who are serious about growth, discipline, and competing at a higher level. If that’s you, let’s get to work.

"My son said Coach Mendo was far and away the most effective coach he's ever worked with! His knowledge, tools, and willingness to share wisdom are incredible. I've never seen my son so impressed by a coach or heard him so enthusiastic about what he learned in a session. Very grateful!
