Rushing the Process

Leave a Comment / Uncategorized / By TPWebAdmin

Are there times when we keep a student from taking it to the max?  Absolutely.  That may surprise you, but there is a good reason.  My total focus is on development, with planning designed specifically for her.  If an 11-year-old tries to throw as fast as a varsity player, but her body has not developed …

This past weekend, I received so many texts and emails about our pitchers who started strong.  Then, I waited, knowing what would come.  Fully half of them are new to me.  Dominance is a new experience.  There is …

Let Them Coach

It was the first game of a college double-header and our older daughter took the mound against the team that was one game ahead of them in the conference. She didn’t seem to have her usual fire,

Moving it Well

My new partners constantly talk about movement. Movement is more than changing space geographically. Movement has everything to do with how you get there.

Pick Three for Success

New Beginnings

A couple of years ago one of our Certified Instructors sent me an email that said, “Just wanted to say a quick thank you again!

Why Does it Hurt?

Leave a Comment / Talking Softball with Denny / By Denny

One of our readers had a great question this week. With so many advances in training and medicine, why do we see increasing injuries?

The Long Toss Drill

Someone recently asked my opinion of the long toss drill. Like any tool or drill it can be as harmful as it is beneficial.

Because injury research and recovery is a huge part of my personal mission, it is not surprising when someone brings a new pitcher who is hurting. What surprises me is to have the pitcher, herself, contact me,

I went to watch one of my pitchers this weekend. She was absolutely wonderful and I could not be more proud. Then, I recognized the catcher, who often comes to lessons with her.
