"Coach Jay and I only worked together briefly, but it was enough to make a difference. He brought a level of purpose that pushed me to be more locked in every time I stepped on the court.

"Working with Coach Jim has elevated my game—his clear instruction, ability to connect, “simple” strategic insights, and ability to break down complex shots and simplify them made improvements feel easy and achievable.

If you're serious about taking your pickleball skills to the next level, this coach is the game-changer you’ve been looking for.

I coach the mental side of baseball. I don’t teach hitting mechanics, pitching grips, or fielding footwork. I work on what most coaches never address: the confidence, focus, composure, and mental routines that determine whether an athlete’s physical ability actually shows up when it matters. I played college baseball at Hawaii Pacific University and Grand Canyon University and spent time in professional baseball environments including independent league camps and spring training. I know what it feels like to step into the box with pressure on, to deal with a bad at-bat carrying into the next one, and to play a role that demands mental toughness nobody taught me how to build. I had to figure most of it out on my own. Now I help baseball players at every level develop the mental skills I wish I had been taught. I am a Certified Mental Performance Coach through Brian Cain’s Mental Performance Mastery program and a Certified Life and Success Coach through Jay Shetty’s program. I also hold certifications and training in meditation, NLP (neuro-linguistic programming), and somatic coaching (body-based awareness and nervous system regulation). Most baseball coaches will tell a player to “shake it off” or “be more confident” but never explain what that actually means or how to do it. I do. I give baseball players specific, practical tools they can use before, during, and after games to compete with more clarity, confidence, and control.

"Mike is an excellent coach who keeps me motivated and focused on my goals. He guides me with insightful questions whenever I am not sure of what to do or how to do it. Mike helps me stay on track and avoid procrastination. I strongly recommend him to anyone seeking improvement.

Music has always been my greatest passion, and for two decades, I've had the privilege of sharing that passion with my students.

I will always meet students at the level they are at and help them improve on their struggles and goals.

"When I was completing my degree in Music Education at ASU, I took some private lessons with Jaici. She was a TA for the Horn Studio so I had some lessons with her. Jaici was very knowledgeable and helpful as a teacher. I never felt stressed before going to a lesson with her because I knew she would help me with the things I was struggling with. I enjoyed playing duets and working on advanced playing techniques with her. Now we both work together as music teachers in the same school district! Jaici is a great private lessons teacher and I recommend taking lessons with her.

"I joined a local music shop’s program where they took adults and put them into a band. I wouldn’t have been able to play any of the gigs let alone get through practice without help from Tyler.

I played collegiate baseball at Francis Marion University (1 year), Prince George’s Community College (2 years), and St. Thomas University (1 year), gaining experience across multiple levels of college baseball. After my playing career, I transitioned into coaching and player development. I have coached with Thunderbirds Baseball Academy and Diamond Sports Academy and completed a pitching internship at Miami Christian High School, where I assisted with pitcher development, bullpen work, arm care routines, and game preparation. My goal as a pitching coach is to develop durable, efficient pitchers by improving mechanics, command, and pitch design while prioritizing long-term arm health. I focus on building consistency, confidence, and preparing pitchers to compete at the next level.
