Introduction

I believe in PERSONAL baseball training and instruction, specific to each player's interest and skill level. I don't not believe in cookie-cutter or one-size-fits-all training. I am the only area baseball instructor that starts every student with a professional baseline assessment, followed by periodic re-testing and setting realistic goals and timelines to ensure progressive development. This is how I help develop strengths and improve weaknesses. Player measurements (throwing velocity, bat exit speed and running speed) are compared to National Average Performance Standards as well as other local players of the same age/grade group. I help young players improve their baseball skills, while keeping them interested and having fun. Being a baseball instructor allows me to go see my students in action during games and continually assist their development throughout the season.

We as a family instantly fell in love with Coach Vega on our first session. So much so, we will be going to him often. With his insight and technique, we have have already seen some improvement with our children’s baseball skills. We are looking forward to watching the growth in our children over the next couple of weeks and months with the help of Coach Vega.

Coach Vega has a very laid back and friendly coaching style. I found this to be the perfect match for my son. My son felt comfortable right away and was able to get the most out of the coaching session. Cant wait to use Coach Vega again for more baseball coaching!

Coach Gil is a top trainer for baseball players. My son has been seeing private trainers for hitting, fielding and pitching for years. I switched him to coach Gil two months before his high school freshman tryouts, as a final tune-up. Coach Gil improved his bat speed and the exit velocity of balls off of his bat by at least 15mph on average swings in that time. Incredible! His lessons are a good mix of hitting, fielding, throwing, and overall what it takes to be player and make your team. Great progress tracking and communication too, like no other trainer we've worked with. We plan to continue working with Coach Gil through my son's high school baseball career.

Gil is very knowledgeable in his assessments and takes the results and comes up with a very specific training regime. He has helped my son tremendously with his hitting, pitching and fielding. So glad we were referred to him. He's very specific with his critiques and is very thorough in how to make corrections. My son really respects him and always looks forward to his lessons with him.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The initial lesson is a 1-hour evaluation and is $50; thereafter, each lesson is $80 per hour. No half hours.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I volunteer 50 hours annually to local little leagues, travel teams and high school programs so I can continually learn from coaches and what are the growing trends or new techniques in baseball. Through my own personal investments, I research and test market new training tools.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I got started in the baseball training business while training my two sons at some of the local indoor baseball training facilities. Some of the owners as well as parents/players asked me to host trainings for them.
