Well put CJ and this is what I have planned for the first lesson. Getting into the ready position and catch.
I only plan to do 30 minutes at a time as more than that one on one for her is just too much. 1 hour if she has a softball buddy over. They say you only have about 1 minute of attention span for each year of life. I can see this has really worked for her. We changed from 1 hour pitching lessons that were almost 2 hours by the time we finished the warm ups, arguing for a good finish and such. Our new PC only instructs for 30 minutes period. We warm up for 15 minutes prior and she seems to have come farther in 3 weeks with him than 2 months the other way and isn't in meltdown mode(both of us actually) at the end.
I have found some fun drills on Amazon that I might try and stretch it out a bit if I can. But when they are done, it is pointless to keep going--at least for us.
