This is someone who genuinely cares about the well-being of aspiring, younger players—many of whom he probably sees bits and pieces of himself in—and tirelessly works to help them become better versions of themselves.

- John Brucker

Big time thank you to the man Dennis Long himself. Definitely wouldn’t be the pitcher I am today without him especially after he helped me after my setbacks these past two years.

- Adam Kirsch

Dennis is one of the most knowledgeable baseball people I know. But what's even more impressive is his keen ability to communicate. He teaches in a way that athletes can really understand. There are countless success stories under his guidance that are a result of the player understanding and then implementing what Dennis is teaching.

What is Pitching Easy?

Dennis started Pitching Easy around 30 years ago, focusing on private, in person pitching lessons.

From teaching little leaguers how to grip the ball properly, to guiding teens through high school team tryouts, and mentoring major league prospects as they navigate what it's like to have a career in baseball, Dennis has always focused on teaching the game the right way and developing each athlete in a way that fits their skillset and personality. Now, in 2020, Dennis has brought Pitching Easy Online to reach more pitchers and provide his existing clients with tips and drills they can always have access to.

What am I going to learn?

Dennis has broken the video lessons down into different age ranges, so that each set of lessons is relevant for players stage and development as an athlete. While that makes the lessons different inn each course, some things remain constant, like focusing on pitching proper posture, balance, how to avoid injury and how to produce power. In the youth videos, Dennis focuses on fundamentals. As the ages progress, you'll start to see learn how to transfer fundamentals into power & velocity, as well as work on more secondary and off-speed pitches.

Are these lessons for pitchers, parents, or coaches?

Players, coaches and parents can all benefit from these videos. Especially at the youth and H.S. level, the online videos teach parents and coaches how to guide their athlete and what to look for in developing good throwing habits.
