Private Baseball Lessons & Coaches in Shoreview, MN

My service stands out because you don’t have to pay top dollar to put an emphasis on 1 on 1 teaching. That’s my bread and butter. Being a certified personal trainer I bring more aspects into my lessons to further tap into my athletes talent and work ethic. You don't pay seperate for the personal trainer. I correlate the skill work and physical training together. I played varsity 3 of 4 years in High School. I have multiple Babe Ruth League state titles and played collegiately for 2 years and was a win away from the college World Series. I know how good baseball is played and what it looks like. I break down the fundamentals of the game to help their skill set grow exponentially. Whether it's infield, outfield, on the pitchers mound or in the batters box, when the fundamentals become basic nature, it leaves all the room in the world for the talent to take over. Baseball is such a mental sport as well. I've read numerous books about not only techniques physically, but techniques mentally. That knowledge either isn’t passed on, or it costs an arm and a leg to get. I enjoy helping people get the most out of themselves. I enjoy spending time teaching the younger generation about the sport I grew up loving and still love. I enjoy being a good influence and passing on my knowledge to the younger generation. I'm passionate about fostering a love for baseball in every student I teach. With 16+ years of playing experience, and my 8+ years of coaching experience, I bring a deep understanding of the game and a dedication to helping players reach their full potential. I’ve seen and trained all types of athletes. Let's step up to the plate and make this season your best yet!
