More on Ken Joyce"My daughter Sophia started working with Ken during this off season. She loves softball and was looking to work on her hitting before next year. Ken was able to provide her with a better understanding of the fundamentals of a swing as well as providing her with the skills and drills to continually improve her performance that she can also practice at home. As a parent it great to watch Ken work with Sophia not just for what she was learning but how much fun she was having in the session! He has a way of talking with the kids that is entertaining, understandable and that they can then apply to their swing. Sophia and I are both excited to see what this season brings for her after all her work with Ken! She is more confident and feels prepared to go onto the field and “be her own best coach” based on what she has learned. “
Ken goes beyond just improving swing mechanics. His approach focuses on building player awareness and self-recognition; teaching them to understand their swing, to self-evaluate, and as a result providing them the skills to self-correct when they are on the field. His approach helps his players not only improve their hitting skills but also build confidence. I highly recommend Ken for anyone seeking a hitting coach who truly cares about their overall development as a player and as a person.
My name is Emma Burnham; I am a sophomore at Colby College in Waterville, Maine, where I am continuing my athletic and academic career. I have been with Ken at Swing like a pro since I was eight, and I am still going. Ken has been one of my biggest supporters since the age of eight, and he continues to be. Whether Ken was away with one of his teams or home, I could text or call him day or night for any advice, and he would always be able to uplift me and remind me that “you are the best!” Ken has taught me more than just how to swing a bat; he has taught me how to believe in myself and, most importantly, what it takes to be a great teammate and a great person. Hitting with Ken has been one of the best experiences, and I hope others are just as lucky as I am to get this experience and the insight he brings to the softball/baseball community.
I spent 2 professional seasons working day in and day out with Ken Joyce. His knowledge and expertise in mechanics, approach, and winning at bats is worth trusting for the betterment of your career. Your journey to high school baseball, college, professional, and the major leagues is more rewarding, doing it alongside people like Ken Joyce.
