Training Programs

Built for catchers, by a catcher

Every session is tailored to the position — the reps, the mechanics, and the mindset that separate great catchers from the rest.

1-on-1 Lessons

Fully personalized sessions focused on your catcher’s specific needs — receiving, blocking, throwing, and footwork.

Small Group Training

Train alongside 2–4 catchers. Competitive reps, live blocking and receiving drills, and game-situation work.

Framing & Receiving

Steal strikes with quiet hands and pro-level receiving technique that gets pitchers more calls.

Blocking & Pop Time

Explosive footwork, blocking fundamentals, and a faster, more accurate transfer to shut down the run game.

“Coach Juan has been huge for my son this season. He’s patient, he makes the work fun, and you can see the difference in how confident my son is behind the plate now. As a Tigers parent, I couldn’t ask for a better coach for these kids.”
