Testimonials

While I am admittedly a baseball nobody, I do know what I am talking about. As a result, my clients and readers achieve significant results when they follow my advice.
     As proof of this, on this page I have reprinted some of the e-mail testimonials I have received from clients and readers who have had success implementing the ideas I talk about.

Pitching and Hitting Testimonials

Below are some testimonials from people who have had success with both my information about pitching mechanics and rotational hitting.

Aloha Chris,
     My son and I are viewing your website as an instructional. We changed his hitting swing by implementing your breakdown that explains what is going on. He made tremendous progress. We are now implementing the throwing techniques (not for pitching but just throwing in general).
    Today, one of the mothers at school, informed me that her son (who plays minor Little League) is losing interest because he is struggling and not hitting the ball. This is his first year of learning baseball. I informed her of your website and what a difference it has made in just a few weeks with my son.
    Her husband is in the same situation as me. We don't know about baseball and have never played it. They will be viewing your website tonight with their son.
     I would like to thank you personally for putting up a website that is non-baseball knowledge friendly! I don't know a lot about baseball but now I have some knowledge of baseball on throwing and hitting.
     A big mahalo (thank you) from the big island of Hawaii!

I have developed an international following, with readers in Serbia, South Africa, Cameroon, and a number of other countries. Here is an e-mail I received from a baseball coach in Italy.

Dear Chris, first of all excuse me for my English. I am an Italian coach from Rome, I train a team boys here called "New Roma Baseball." From when I have discovered your site the output of my team has changed completely receiving many successes and, in the meantime, you have allowed me to adjourn me and to constantly grow. In Italy the technique of the baseball, both as it regards the pitcher that the batter, is not very evolved and the things that I have read have been of fundamental importance for me is to local level that national. I have, besides, put to the current one many Italian technicians of the existence of your site and all you/they are having satisfaction enormous of it. Thanks to you my boys and me same we are I am very improved. And' a pleasure to see children (from the 9 a 12 years) to strike the ball with so much power and explosiveness. All of my boys launch following the principles from you brought and some of them (7) they have been select for the regional and national selections. Thanks. I will be among the first ones that will purchase your book.

Hitting Testimonials

While I started out with the goal of teaching pitchers, I have actually had more immediate results teaching hitters. Below is the e-mail I received that convinced me that I knew what I was talking about when it came to rotational hitting.

My son is a freshman player at a Division 1 school and has benefited greatly from Chris' analysis of the major league swing. My son's power increased dramatically after utilizing concepts learned from Chris' player reviews and breakdowns.
     As a former college player myself, I appreciate Chris' unbiased take on what does, and does not, work in a batting stroke. Too many instructors advocate methods that seek to justify how they swung the bat as players.
     Chris is simply concerned with what is effective.

Here's an e-mail from a minor league ballplayer.

What a great website! I am heading into my first professional season in the _____ League with the _____ _____ and I have been learning how to do exactly what the photos of rotational hitting show. I understood it before but now I can visually see and relate to the pictures of Pujols, he is truly amazing. If you ever want to go to a game in _____ this summer, if you are from around there then let me know. It is going to be an experience for me so I couldn't tell you what to expect. Thanks again for this site. I appreciate it. Did you play professionally?

Here's an e-mail from a college hitter.

Before I began reading the information on your website I was hitting weak groundballs and occasional base hits. After learning a number of different principles such as tilt, circular hand path and separation, I became a gap to gap hitter with power to all fields.

Here's an e-mail I received from the father of a high school hitter.

My son is 15 and has always been a good hitter, many consider him to have exceptional hands. However, he was prone to hitting ground balls and in my opinion not as much pop as needed. He hit mostly singles.
     We attended a seminar put on by Mike Epstein a few months ago. It piqued my interest and I began learning about rotational mechanics. I found your site and especially liked your analysis of connection and indeed see this as key.
     The picture analysis of various hitters also clearly demonstrates what actually happens during a swing. The combination of the load, stride and then the connected rotational swing is there for anyone willing to see past their biases.
     My son has been hitting the smack out of the ball on his high school team. He has already hit several triples and doubles which is new for him. Most importantly he has a logical approach to hitting which will allow him to grow in the future.

Here's an e-mail from a college hitter.

A few weeks ago, I discovered your website and have been surfing it and reading almost daily every since I did, just getting as much information as possible. I play catcher for the University of ________ team and was reading online to find some ways to improve on my swing because I had been struggling of late. And I have been much more successful recently, as far as I can see, because I studied the hitter analyses and swing techniques you write about and everything started to make much more sense. Especially, concerning my load and being more efficient and direct with my hands. So I wanted to commend you on your knowledge and efforts. Thank you very much, the site is tremendous.

Here's an e-mail from a high school hitter.

I think your site is great. I probably spend an hour a day on your site. I used to be a little punch hitter until I found your website, but now I regularly hit the ball over outfielders heads. I can also recognize most flaws in my teammates' swings. Whenever they doubt the advice I'm giving them to improve, I always take them to my house and show them your slow motion analyses of hitters.

Here's an excerpt from an e-mail that I received from a high school hitter.

You have done a better job than probably 90 percent of all high school coaches on teaching the major league swing. Phenomenal!
