Hi, I’m Coach Jenna! I started Twisted Seams Pitching Academy in 2020 because I wanted pitchers to have a place where they could learn, grow, and build confidence without feeling like they had to be perfect. My heart behind coaching is simple: I want to help girls learn how to pitch THEIR game. Not someone else’s game. Not the pitcher next to them. Not the version they think they have to be to make everyone happy. I want them to understand their body, trust their work, build strong mechanics, and learn how to step in the circle with confidence. I work with pitchers of all ages, from beginners learning their very first windup to athletes who are ready for the next level. Whether your daughter is just getting started or trying to grow in her game, my goal is to help her feel more confident, more prepared, and more like herself every time she pitches.
