The Zen Hitter Approach

The Zen Hitter approach was created to guide hitters to embrace their natural and most efficient swing movements, while cultivating an optimal internal environment to perform. JP is dedicated to helping his hitters be the hitters they were meant to be... calm, clear, and capable — regardless of the challenges they face at the plate (and beyond).

JP has empowered hitters at every level, including MLB All-Stars, MiLB prospects, NCAA All-Americans, and elite high school hitters. Jason’s clients are located all over the globe... from Japan to Mexico... and coast-to-coast in the United States. 

A lifelong passion for hitting and peak performance fuels JP’s insightful and cutting-edge instruction. He draws on a unique multi-disciplinary background in sport psychology, kinesiology, consulting, and Eastern philosophy to address the “whole hitter” — empowering players to embrace their natural swing movements and competitive mindset. 

Hitting in the year 2021 — with increased velocity and high spin rates — is likely the single-toughest task in the history of sports. Jason Panaro has spent much of his life studying the mental and physical aspects necessary to thrive in the batter’s box at the highest levels of today’s game. The essence of JP’s work is found in “The Conversation” between hitter and hitting coach. It is an ever-evolving discourse, thoughtful and in-depth, that continues to grow and enrich a dedicated community of hitters and a truly honored hitting coach.
