Mark Baker coaching at a bowling center

In-person coaching has an immediacy that nothing else can replicate. I can see things in your approach and delivery that don't always show up clearly on video — and we can work through adjustments in real time, so you can feel the difference before you leave the lanes.

Every lesson is built around where you are right now — your mechanics, your equipment, your goals, and what you're preparing for. We might spend the session on physical fundamentals, spare shooting, lane play, or the mental side of competition. Whatever matters most to your game is where we focus.

What a Lesson Covers

I watch you bowl, record your game from multiple angles, and work through the footage with you. You'll see exactly what's happening — and get specific, practical adjustments you can start using right away.

Every lesson includes:

  • One-on-one coaching tailored to your game
  • Video motion analysis — see your technique clearly
  • Feedback on release, timing, approach, spare shooting, lane play, and mental game
  • Specific insights and adjustments for your game
  • A clear plan to take home and put into practice

How It Works

It's simple — reach out to schedule, show up with your equipment, and leave with a plan. Most students notice a difference in their very next practice session.

Getting started:

  1. Contact me to pick a center and schedule your session.
  2. Bring your equipment and be ready to bowl.
  3. I'll analyze your game on video, give you immediate feedback, and walk you through a personalized improvement plan.
  4. Take the adjustments back to your regular practice and build on them.

Single lessons or multi-session packages — whatever works best for your schedule and goals.

Ready to Book?

All lessons are arranged with me in advance — please don't drop in while I'm with another student.

Next steps:

  1. Use the contact form to check my availability and reserve your spot at your preferred center.
  2. Bring your equipment — balls, shoes, and anything else you normally use.
  3. Walk away with immediate feedback and a personalized plan for your next steps.
