Each private lesson is 60 minutes of one-on-one instruction with your coach.
Private lessons with our development academy are 60 minutes of one-on-one instruction with a professional coach, built around one athlete and one focus. We offer them for baseball and fastpitch across our Seattle-area facilities, for players at any level, from a first set of swings to a college-bound senior.
Sixty minutes of skill-specific instruction with one instructor. Your athlete gets dedicated time with a single coach, which means a high volume of reps, real feedback, and room to reflect and adjust inside the same session.

You and your coach set the focus for the hour. Athletes most often work on:
Outfield and baserunning are available by request, and two skills can be combined in one session when you ask ahead.
Private lessons fit a wide range of players. A younger athlete taking a first set of cuts and a high school player chasing a roster spot can both book the same hour and get instruction built for where they are right now. We coach baseball and fastpitch athletes from 8U through 18U. Our most advanced work runs all the way up: collegiate and professional players train directly with Curt Nelson, our Director of Hitting.

Every lesson is taught by a professional instructor who coaches for a living, not a part-time volunteer. Our staff holds real credentials in player development, including Driveline, Rapsodo, and NASM certifications. That preparation shows up in how a session runs, from the warm-up to the feedback your athlete hears between reps.
While each instructor has their own process, athletes will:
Be taken through a warm-up or activation
Have a conversation to identify an objective or focus for the session
Be taught skills that are progression-based and tied to the objective
Apply new skills in a variety of ways, including at game-like speeds
Feel uncomfortable, because learning and growth require it
Be challenged physically and mentally for deep learning
We run private lessons at four facilities around the Puget Sound region. Baseball lessons are available in Woodinville, Sumner, and Redmond. Fastpitch lessons are based at our Lynnwood facility.
