The hitting academy teaches the player and parent the proper way to think about the "approach" to the plate. Starting from the ground up, this class teaches about the importance of stance, balance, backside turn, hands to the ball and more.

The pitching academy teaches both the player and parents the proper way to warm up, drills that can greatly improve throwing mechanics and the basics of pitching both from the wind-up and stretch positions.
