Great coach - wish he would respond to texts for future schedule
Joseph (CoachUp client)
Coach Mike was great - he took the time to work through a variety of drills to zero in on where my son would benefit the most from targeted work, so we could then structure a plan to focus on the right areas. Definitely looking forward to more!
Kristy (CoachUp client)

Excellent knowledge of pitching mechanics. He was able to break down where my son needed to work on his form. Clearly very good with kids (my son is 8) and established a rapport quickly.
David (CoachUp client)
Michael has done a fantastic job helping my son Luke improve his mechanics. He quickly identified areas to focus on and they quickly resulted in improved consistency and velocity. Luke has really enjoyed the sessions and we look forward to continuing to work with Michael.
Tom (CoachUp client)
Coach Michael did an excellent job working with my 11 year old grandson. He quickly developed a rapport that put my grandson at ease. He then did throwing, pitching, and batting drills that showed my grandson the proper form and techniques for each movement. He took the time to explain the mechanics behind the movements and the benefits of doing them properly. Coach Michael also encouraged him to envision what he was going to do beforehand in order to just let it all flow naturally.
My grandson showed immediate improvement in the baseball game he played later that evening and it boosted his confidence to have someone teaching him and encouraging him a friendly, no pressure environment.
I would highly recommend coach Michael to anyone looking to become a better baseball player.

Mike has been great helping our boys improve especially with pitching. They enjoy learning how to have better pitching mechanics and the finer points of throwing different types of pitches. They also appreciate Mike’s pointers on how to pitch to batters in different game situations.
Zelda (CoachUp client)
My son had his first lesson with Coach Mike and loved it. We will book more sessions with him.
Steve (CoachUp client)
Michael was great with my 10yo son who needs some help with pitching mechanics and consistency. Michael was quick to find a few key point to help with both of those things right off the bat.
Randolph (CoachUp client)
Michael, does a great job with my son. He is patient and explains everything very clearly. He doesn't overwhelm.by trying to go over everything at once. He breaks things down into key elements that make absorbing and executing much easier.

Coach Michael is a great coach. He takes the time to really understand the strengths and weaknesses of my son and designs appropriate drills so that my son is challenged but enjoys learning about baseball. It is clear that Coach Michael has a deep understanding and passion for this sport!
Mark (CoachUp client)
One session with coach Mike so far and we have booked 3 more.
Liked how he took my son through an abbreviated game by showing him proper warm ups, mechanics, live pitching and the mental aspects of being on the mound. He also provided us with great drills that you can take home to practice form and mechanics.
Hope to add another positive review at the end of our sessions!
Paul (CoachUp client)
Michael is very personable, positive, and knowledgeable. He communicates very well with young athletes. As a former pitcher myself, he understands the intricacies of mechanics and timing, and explains then well. For me, it’s another voice that my listens to.

Our son had his first coaching session with Coach Michael W last week and it went extremely well. Coach Michael seemed very knowledgeable and was able to explain the little nuances of what our son was doing incorrect. He explained it in a way that our son was able to interpret it easily and put it to action on the field. We are very pleased with Coach Michael and we will definitely hire him again.
Lisa (CoachUp client)
Coach Michael has been really great. My son picked him out. He was quick to respond and we were able to set up a session right away. It really has been a good experience for my son. My son already feels much more confident about heading into this baseball season at school. I would refer him to anyone that asked. He's an excellent coach.
Jim (CoachUp client)
Coach Mike was great, and everything I hoped for. He taught my son excellent technique drills for him to work on and brought up some bad habits he saw in my sons pitching. We will definitely use him again and would recommend coach Mike.
Gregory (CoachUp client)
Mike did a great job of assessing my training needs & brainstorming methods to improve throwing mechanics & confidence. I enjoyed working with him and will do so again.
Richard (CoachUp client)
Mike has been an excellent coach for my son, his coaching style is consistent and age appropriate. Mike has been able to instill confidence and still develop the necessary pitching skills.
Christopher (CoachUp client)
Coach Mike helped my 9 year old son make some mechanical pitching adjustments to improve efficiency, accuracy, and consistency. He also provided some batting advice to improve hitting. We are really looking forward to seeing continual improvement based on coach Mike's excellent kid-coaching.

Michael is terrific with kids of all ages. He has a real passion for teaching baseball and really cares about helping kids reach their potential. He's patient, creative and encouraging. I can't recommend him highly enough!

Greg (CoachUp client)
Mike spent an hour with my 10yr old son instructing him on pitching. He quickly was able to identify his strengths and weakness. Mike taught him drills that keyed on his weaknesses and has a plan for our next couple of sessions.
My son is looking forward to his next lesson.

Coach Mike was excellent and very knowledgeable in training. My 11yr old son really felt very comfortable working with him and is looking forward to learning from him.
Carolyn (CoachUp client)
Coach Mike is a good fit for my son. He is a lefty pitcher and that is what my son is working on. Hopefully he can apply to colleges as a two position baseball player. Here's hoping. I would recommend coach Mike to anyone.
Craig (CoachUp client)
Michael is FANTASTIC! Does a fantastic job both communicating and showing you exactly how each drill/exercise should be executed. Will absolutely see him again! - Craig Schorer
David V. (Testimonial)
Being Mike's teammate, classmate and friend at Columbia, we really enjoyed our time together on and off the field. If you're looking for a guy to hit fungos to you, he's the guy. If your team was in a tight jam and needed an escape, he's the guy to get you out of it, mixing pitches, arm slots and just pounding the zone. Talk about arm care and injury prevention, this guy could throw it any day of the week and twice on Sunday if we needed him. In four years, I don't think I ever saw him in the training room recovering from something or having something he just tweaked. He's the epitome of the successful pitcher that didn't light up the radar gun, but knew how to pitch and pitch well and you always felt confident playing defense behind him that no matter what happened, he'd get us out of the jam.
