Private Instruction

Professional & qualified instruction  since 2007. Generally, private lessons must be paid for at time of lesson or before lesson occurs.
NEW CANCELLATION NOTICE: we now require 3 days notice to cancel Private lessons. IF you cancel less than 3 days, and we can NOT fill the slot, payment is required and no credit will be issued if prepaid. Chances are, we can fill the slot with enough notice due to our long wait-list. Effect Jan 1, 2024

WHY THE “COOKIE-CUTTER APPROACH TO HITTING DOES NOT WORK

Cookie Cutter definition: If you describe something as having a cookie-cutter approach or style, you mean that the same approach or style is always used and not enough attention is paid to individual differences.

The Professional Instructors at The Sandlot do NOT believe in teaching the cookie cutter approach. While there are similar technical mechanics that are necessary for the proper swing, we work closely with each batter to differentiate the aspects of hitting and apply changes to help that particular aspect of the swing. Every player requires their own set of instructions and hitting drills to maximize his/her understanding and potential.

Want to see it for yourselves?  Come “Test Drive” an instructor:  $15 for 15 minutes will get you a professional analysis of your swing and what corrections need to be applied.  You will also be given a few drills to help work on those corrections as well.
