Private pitching lessons consist of the following:
- Warm-up Drills: teaching balance, proper mechanics, and arm circle speed
- Mechanical Work: balance drills, and diagnostics (including analysis using video)
- Movement Pitches (depending on age and skill level of pitcher)
- Mental Game Strategy: including game like situations and learning how to play “One Pitch at a Time”
Mechanics: I teach internal rotation (also called “forearm fire”) as well as hips open at release. I do not teach to slam the hips shut immediately following the pitch or to follow through directly upwards (also known as “hello elbow”).

For pitching lessons, it is important that the student provides a catcher. This allows the instructor to work side by side with the pitcher, providing hands on training.
Pitching lessons are $50 for a 60 minute session.
