I plan on giving my first hitting lessons and want to know of any advice. Not on swings or mechanics unless there is something you think I need here but just other stuff that might help me.

For swing mechanics this forum is chief rabbit hole if you dive into it. For lessons overall just keep it simple too many times I see coaches (I’m definitely still guilty of it from time to time) dump way too much information on them at once and and overload their minds. When that happens swings become stiff and inconsistent and it turns into a wasted hour.I plan on giving my first hitting lessons and want to know of any advice.

That’s a good one lol.See ball...hit ball.......
So would you maybe having 1 or 2 things to work on each lesson is enough? I feel I taught my own DD to have better swings is bc we learn and work on one step at a time building it. If that’s true, are there any particular things that you would say should be work on before others? So would that be a good question in itself? What would be the first things taught in order if you were going by steps to a girl that never played before? This girl has some but just wondering.For swing mechanics this forum is chief rabbit hole if you dive into it.

give them clear goals for the lesson and learn to simplify and demonstrate so they have visuals. Besides that I’ve found that if you can follow that the girls are quite receptive and eager to learn and get better!
