Get to know Jose
Hello everyone, good morning, why hire me? A little bit about my story. I started playing baseball when I was four years old in an organized way. Since then I represented my state in national competitions, until I reached the last category. I played two more years in class A in my country Venezuela, then I played baseball and softball until today. I have more than 15 years dedicated to teaching how to play baseball and softball and to training active players to develop and/or correct their performance in the game, improving and perfecting it. A significant number of baseball players that I trained personally, then entered important academies directed mostly by former MLB or professional baseball players in Venezuela. My work system is individual and progressive, which means that I design each baseball player his own training plan according to his knowledge and conditions. I also keep a statistical record that measures their progress over time. It is very important that it doesn't matter if you have been told that you are not good at a sport, if you want to play it I will train you and you will get great results. On the other hand, I not only work on the practical part, but also the physical and mental part necessary to be able to succeed in this and other sports. Apart from my experience as a baseball player and coach, I also took a course to be an official scorer for Venezuelan professional baseball, directed by Mr. Gil Reyes, Official Scorer for the Navegantes del Magallanes, a Venezuelan professional baseball team. Contact me and you will see the results soon
How I can help you improve
There are many baseball schools and academies run by former baseball players who have vast knowledge of the sport, but they do not work on the individual details, so I have seen many children drag an error for years, whether in batting, fielding and even throwing a ball, which prevents them from progressing in the same.
A typical training session
Once I have confirmed the child's health, I draw up an individual progressive plan that will be developed step by step. I am not of the idea that the child should leave practice tired, but rather with knowledge of how we are going to work and what he should do to improve his skills.
Basically, we start with a little talk, where I explain what we are going to do, then we do stretching, arm warm-up, outfield plays, infield plays, pitching and catching, and base running, and we finish with a final exercise.
Career & accomplishments
As a coach for over 10 years I achieved several championships and runner-up positions.
Best coach I ever had
The best coach I had was Mr. Luis Marine, who not only taught me the basic fundamentals of the sport but also gave me his time so that I could become a better baseball player and a better person.
What athletes & parents should know
If your child has the skills, wants to work and likes sports, I am willing to get the best out of them so they can get to where they want to go.
I also focus on the areas where they have less potential to take them to the required level and more

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.
