Powerline Pitching
With Coach Steph
My Philosophy
I teach 'whip' or 'internal rotation' compared to 'hello elbow.' I have a background in physical therapy and personal training and I believe internal rotation to be healthier for your rotator cuff and biceps over time.
Not sure which style your pitcher pitches? Check slow-motion videos of your pitcher against this video.
My Approach to Softball Pitching
We have three kids. One boy, then two girls. When our oldest daughter got interested in pitching we put a mound in the backyard. Soon after, my younger one wanted some lessons, too. This has progressed to full nets, buckets of pitching aids and balls, and lessons for girls from dozens of local teams of all age and ability levels.
I LOVE beginners! I love showing girls who are new to pitching how to work up to proper mechanics!
I have a background in physical therapy and personal training and this leads me to always think long-term about girls’ musculoskeletal health! We don’t do drills or exercises that will cause harm long-term even if it gives some type of measurable result short-term.
My physical therapy background helps me easily watch body positioning with pitching, and use a variety of drills to encourage proper mechanics. I love to use slow motion videos to show girls during sessions, and to send to parents after.

What to Expect
I have a mound in my backyard so we never have to search for an open field and hope the mound is the correct distance.
Bonus: You have access to an always clean, always available bathroom 🙂
