For the last 4 years I have been coaching with the dodger training academy. We host youth baseball camps with the players on the Los Angeles Dodgers. 2 years ago I also took up coaching with the Angeles as a youth baseball instructor. My background is in pitching, hitting, and fielding. I have a proven practice program that was taught to me which allowed me to be a Washington state all-star my senior year of high school and allowed me to play baseball at Bellevue college.

"Nick was extremely patient and kind! I had a very specific thing I was looking for coaching on, and he was super knowledgeable. Despite it only being an hour, I felt like I walked away for sure with tools to help my throw! He had super useful exercises ready to run, and was nothing but encouraging and patient even as I fully made him run a ton/overthrew/poorly threw the ball. Would highly recommend!

"Hector is awesome. He really knows his tennis stuff, especially when it comes to racket strings. Super helpful and patient, making each lesson fun. He breaks down techniques clearly and tailor his coaching to my needs. If you're looking to up your tennis game, I definitely recommend Hector. He’s got the skills to help you improve and the knowledge to geek out about tennis equipment too.

With two decades of competitive tennis under my belt, I've spent the last 10 years imparting the essentials of the game to enthusiasts in our local community.

This combined experience has honed my ability to convey techniques effectively, ensuring that students not only learn the basics but also appreciate the discipline and dedication behind every stroke.

"Ed's lesson was quite good overall, especially since his advice was really helpful and to the point, which I appreciated. His helpfulness stood out, though I’d like to see some focus on improving forehand control next time. Still, I’ll probably try Ed again because his straightforward guidance feels quite practical.
