PRI Vision Integration for the Baseball Player

Applying Visual Concepts in the Treatment of the Patterned Baseball Player

Live Course

Clearwater, FL

"I just participated in the PRI Vision Integration for the Baseball player, held in Clearwater Florida. I consider myself a connoisseur of PRI courses. I learn so much from every seminar--even if I have taken it before. As such, I was blown away with the concepts that I was able to grasp during this one day course.

This seminar was an amazing starting point for understanding the role of vision in the PRI evaluation and treatment model. I work with a very varied clientele, and all principles/skills taught apply to all populations, not only my athletes. Heidi and Ron presented very complex material in such a systematic and logical manner that I was able to apply the techniques with patients the very next day (literally). I also believe that practicing and integrating the materials from this one-day program will enable me to learn at a deeper level, when I am able to take the 2-day vision course next year.

I thank you all for the ongoing learning opportunities that you provide!!"

Course Information

This one day course will offer the participant the ability to recognize visuospatial influences on the baseball player’s ability to throw and hit a baseball. Intervention programs will include integration of specific visual integration guidelines to improve interfering patterned strategies used during throwing and batting, building on PRI Integration for Baseball recommendations. Correlations between player performance and visual-sensory processing will be outlined through case management examples. It is the presenter’s desire to foster a more meaningful and enriching experience between coaches, athletic trainers and baseball players, as individual throwing and batting visual influences are assessed.

“Fantastic course! I have been involved in baseball for 25 years and have utilized PRI concepts for almost 15 years, with much success in treating my collegiate baseball players. The PRI vision course was unbelievable. The course changed how I look at treating my athletes, as well as how I look at baseball and baseball players in general when it comes to treating their complaints both on and off the field. Thanks Heidi and Ron for an eye opening experience!”

“The Vision Course gave me some really practical tests and exercises that I can implement right away. I feel like the course helped me connect some dots in regards to some profound and powerful concepts that had previously been beyond my grasp. I feel like there were some very practical waypoints of information that were very useful in my PRI pilgrimage!”
