I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for Jackson and the incredible impact he had on my son during his first season of baseball. From the very beginning, Jackson demonstrated exceptional passion, patience, and skill as an instructor.
His ability to connect with my son, encourage him, and build his confidence was truly remarkable. It was clear that Jackson not only has a deep love for the game of baseball but also a genuine talent for teaching and mentoring young athletes.
Jackson possesses a rare gift for making the game accessible, enjoyable, and empowering for players at any level. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking quality instruction—from T-ball beginners to more advanced players. Simply put, Jackson is the coach you want by your side.

Jackson was really good helping my 7 year old with catching. He was able to communicate his high knowledge of catching it a simple way for him to understand. His positive attitude even when my son didn't do it perfect built up his confidence to continue to try to apply the things he was learning. I would absolute recommend any kid to work with jackson.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI employ an intuitive approach to teaching the game of baseball. My goal is to help the player discover how their body can work for them on the field. I find that overly detailed, mechanics-based coaching tends to inhibit the natural ability of the human body to create the movements needed to be a successful baseball player. Serendipity is the best, most fun, and most lasting way to learn the game.
The first lesson will begin by discussing what you, the player, want to get out of our training session or sessions. Whether it be a certain skill such as hitting or pitching, mechanics related to a skill, or help with the mental approach to the game, we will work together to create a plan specific to your needs.
The first lesson will conclude with drills that lay a foundation for the player's future improvement.
Drills may include:
-Front-arm swing tee drill
-Rapid-fire net toss (for throwing)
-Catch play
-Closed-eye swings
Lesson 11+From lesson eleven and on, we will continue to focus on the foundational aspects of the game for each player, but we will be able to spend time on some of the finer details of each skill to further hone your craft.
Some topics may be:
-Specific, individualized hitting approaches
-Specific pitches or pitching grips for pitchers
-How to call games as a catcher
Lesson 4-10Lessons four to ten will progress based on how the player is developing their skill set. More advanced and game-specific drills may be used, such as:
-Blitz Ball at bats
-Flat ground bullpen sessions
-Fly balls and ground balls with throws
-Two-plate drill (hitting)
-Mixed block/receive (catching)
Lesson 2-3The second and third lessons will continue to hone the foundational aspects of hitting, fielding, throwing, or catching.
Drills may include:
-30-60-90 hitting drill
-Transfer progression (catching)
-Pick progressions (infielders)
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonWith advanced players, the first lesson will begin with a discussion of what type of baseball player you are and how we can work to refine your specific skillset. Foundatinally, I use the same principles I use with beginners, but we will work to create a plan specific to the advanced player's play style and abilities.
Lesson 11+Lessons eleven onward will address the inevitable ups and downs of a baseball career for each player with continued support and specified coaching for each learning opportunity as it comes.
Lesson 4-10Lessons four through ten will continue to address the solutions to any issues and will introduce concepts and movements aimed to reach the full potential of every player.
Lesson 2-3Lessons two and three will be focused on diagnosing any mechanical issues and will implement drills uniquely focused on correcting those flaws.
Youth players
Working with kidsWhen working with kids, I keep the teaching simple, focused, and fun. I am much more concerned with the "big picture" principles of movement and athleticism than the nitty gritty details.
Working with teenagersWith teenagers, I mold my lessons to the ability of each child. My goal is to help every individual improve at a pace that encourages them to keep working hard and prevents discouragement.
