When you think about softball players and their parents, most people picture a father and his daughter: they practice together, he drives her to games, and they watch their favorite sport on tv together. He pushes her when she needs to practice or needs to stop making excuses for herself. In many cases with lessons, [...]
I am excited to announce that we are planning on starting limited hours in the coming weeks and expanding more as time goes on. My husband (who is a pharmacist) recently tested negative for antibodies even though we know for a fact that he was exposed in January by one of his coworkers. So we [...]
Varsity sports being canceled has been a huge blow for us. I know. How do we stay motivated? How do we keep going? I wish I had easy answers. Will we have a summer season? I don't know. What will college look like in the fall? I don't know. What I do know is that [...]

This has been an amazing week for me as I have had two of my athletes gain 9 miles an hour in less than 3 months and I have had several other athletes hit massive speed goals (one of which was to hit 65mph, another was to hit 60mph). It really got me thinking a [...]
I am lucky to be learning every single day. I constantly learn from my (almost 2-year old) son: I am learning to communicate with him based on the words he currently knows, his body language, and his mood. I am also always learning how to adapt to his current skill set (which literally changes every [...]
Yes, the Super Bowl is this Sunday. As usual, I don't have any idea who is playing in it because it's not the college world series :) Regardless, football has been coming up a lot in lessons. Let me explain. Several of my girls have been doing some cross-training. They are trying to get every [...]
