Many players face a common hurdle—they lack the athleticism and movement flow to hit, pitch, and play defense at a high level. Most will head to the gym or train at a facility with traditional training methods, which fail to train the fluidity, agility, and precision required for the dynamic movements required on the baseball and softball field. Get of over the hurdle that is where we come in!

At Baseball Flows, we specialize in movement flow and athleticism training specifically for baseball and softball players. We bridge the gap by focusing on foundational movement patterns that seamlessly connect gym and skills training to on-field excellence.

AXIO Centripetal Training was created by Ted Bezemer, an orthopedic Physical Therapist and strength coach based in Park City, Utah with nearly thirty years experience rehabilitating and training athletes of all levels.

Traditional training and rehabilitation approaches that only focus on range of motion and strength have limited benefit. While these are essential for mechanical joint stability, they only solve part of the problem.

The other component – one that is often overlooked - is restoring and maximizing neuromuscular control. This is the body’s ability to reactively sense and modulate force for dynamic stability and efficient movement. This applies to every joint in the body, but is particularly evident with the shoulder, due its design and mobility. With this as a guiding principle, the search was on for ways to simultaneously improve both mechanical stability (strength) and dynamic stability (neuromuscular control).

I am extremely satisfied with the coaching and mentoring my daughter receives as a catcher from Gabi. From the start, Gabi demonstrated a deep understanding of the position and provided invaluable guidance. Gabi’s expertise and passion for the sport truly reflects my daughter's development and performance. Not only does Gabi teach her the technical skills of catching, she also focuses on building confidence and mental toughness. I am impressed with the personalized approach Gabi takes to address my daughter’s strengths and areas that need improvement.

- Jim Finnen

"My daughter loves Gabi she has been with her for about 3-4 years now and has made huge strides in catching and hitting, she has made my daughter so much more confident in her abilities. Gabi challenges my daughter in every way possible and they get along so well, I would definitely recommend Gabi to anyone that wants the best and get challenged at their sport."

- Matt Hill

"Gabi is amazing! My daughter has been working with her on hitting and catching and she absolutely loves going to lessons. She has improved her swing so much and has learned many great things to improve her catching. She challenges my daughter and asks her questions about what she learned that lesson and I love that about her. She's an amazing teacher and a super hard worker who I highly recommend!"

- Kortnie Tesdall

"Under Gabi's guidance, my daughter has made remarkable progress in both catching and hitting over the past several months. Not only does she look forward to her lessons, but Gabi's coaching significantly bolstered her confidence on the field. Gabi's approach stands out due to her exceptional organization and preparation for each session. Her emphasis on arm care, a critical aspect often overlooked, is commendable."

- Cassie Kaplan

"Gabi is amazing not only with fundamentals of the game but also the mental aspect. My daughter has picked up some amazing swing mechanics due to Gabi taking the time to explain why certain drills are being done. She has connected with my daughter in a way that makes sense, which I never could. Highly recommend!"

- Mark Roe
