Client Reviews
Rachael (CoachUp client)
Great coach!
Natalie (CoachUp client)
Coach Luke was great! He is helping my son a lot with his technique, we look forward to continuing with him!
Chela (CoachUp client)
Very pleased with Coach Skinner. I like his teaching methods, he’s patient with my son and explains things to him. After the first lesson I always debate if I’ll be using that coach again. I have to make sure my son is comfortable with him. I asked my son what he thought about the coach, he said he liked him, he wanted to continue the lessons and thinks he can improve his game.
David (CoachUp client)
Coach Luke is fantastic. I went from being a guy who could make occasional contact to regularly hitting the gap for doubles. His patience and persistence combine with a good eye to enable him to analyze and improve your swing.

Coach Luke was great from the start. Leo had a lot of fun and you could see improved confidence and skills almost immediately.
Theresa (CoachUp client)
Coach Luke has been great with my 9 year old son! My son not only connects well with him in terms of what Coach Luke is teaching him, but was also very comfortable with him from the start. Others noticed a big difference in his hitting abilities after just 2 sessions. I would recommend him without hesitation.
Lorraine (CoachUp client)
Coach Luke has been absolutely fantastic with my 8-year old! Last week, my son could barely hit the ball. This week, he hit every time at bat. I can't believe how much he's improved, in terms of both skills and confidence. We feel so grateful for Luke's help!
David (CoachUp client)
Luke was excellent with my 9 yr old grandson. His hitting has improved tremendously.
