- Have you been told you have loads of talent, but… lack the mental toughness?
- Does it seem like no matter how much you accomplish or how well you play, there’s a part of you that feels like you’re still not good enough?
You’re not alone and I’m here to help!
THE GAME YOU LOVE SHOULDN’T BE THIS FRUSTRATING
That's why I work with the person - inside the player to show you a better way.
Personally interviewing more than 300 Major League Baseball players, coaches, managers and Hall of Famers has allowed me to get inside the hearts and minds of the best ball players in the world to find out how they mentally prepare for success, handle adversity and more.
I’ve cultivated that wisdom, along with my 20+ years of coaching hundreds of ball players on how to use the tools to quiet the mind, slow the game down and step up to the plate with steadfast courage, determination and confidence, no matter the situation or circumstance.

SUCCESS STORIES
“You showed my son you cared about him, his future and his development as a ball player and as a man. Those things are invaluable. I appreciate your honesty with him. You opened my eyes to the importance of a strong mindset and mental approach.”
Jen F. mom of 16 year old son
My 13 year-old son was struggling to maintain focus and a positive attitude when challenged on the baseball field. In just a few sessions we noticed immediate change! He was able to positively manage defeat and focus more on the process than on his performance. I highly recommend coach Kloser to any parent who is looking to help their child improve mental focus, build confidence and learn coping strategies to deal with the mental game of baseball.
Jen T. mom of 13 year old son
Coach, I just wanted to thank you. My son played great weekend series and his mental approach to the game was the best I have ever seen! I saw a huge difference in his body language. The conversations in the car rides were all positive. I am very proud of him for committing to making this change.
Tom C. dad of a 15 year old son
All of the tools you taught me have been very effective on the field. I’m playing with a lot more confidence and a sense of peace. I’ve used some of the techniques you taught me to help me remain calm and not stress out about school!
Alexis B. softball player, Clarion University
My 14 year-old son is a great player, yet struggles with pressure, self-belief and other peoples’ comments that get in his head.
After a few mindset sessions with you, I could cry thinking how amazing my son did mentally! Thank you for being a great mindset coach to my son. He appreciates you so much! It definitely was worth it. Now my husband and I can relax and be more at ease!
Jessica S. mom of 14 year old son
My son has more confidence than I have ever seen in him. He was getting squeezed while pitching the other night and I actually saw him smiling! Thank you for all your help.
Cory W. dad of 11 year old son
My son talks about what he has learned from you all the time. The biggest change has been in basketball when players and fans are going crazy during close games. He’s remained calm and focused and doesn’t get caught up in the noise around him!
Smokey D. dad of 12 year old son
My son is using what he learned from your training and controlling himself before a meltdown. It’s also helping with his attention with homework and at school.
Paul C. dad of 12 year old son
MEET YOUR MINDSET MENTOR - DAVID KLOSER
I work with the person - inside the player.
My love for baseball started when I was four years old (pictured here with my grandfather, former catcher for University of Wisconsin). If my mother were alive today, she’d tell you how I’d cry when I had to take my uniform off just so she could sew patches on the knees!
As a 9-year old pitcher in Little League, I discovered the power of the mind, because nothing happened until I decided to pitch. I was in charge! I had control over my thoughts and actions. I realized there was a lot more to pitching than just throwing the ball over the plate. There was a game within the game!
But it wasn’t always like that! I also discovered how my mind could work against me. When I went from high school to college baseball I thought, “Players don’t make mistakes at this level.” So I put all this pressure on myself to be perfect!
Well, it all came crashing down on me during one college game. I was pitching in the last inning and we were ahead by 2 runs. I got the first two outs. And then… I walked 5 batters… in a row. I was terrified! I tried to keep calm. Yet the harder I tried, the worse it got!
The thing is, I didn’t forget how to pitch. I was a bundle of nerves out there just trying to keep it together, afraid to make a bad pitch, feeling lost, stressed out, and EXTREMELY frustrated! But most of all – I didn’t want to let my teammates down!
I got out of the jam and we won the game. Instead of celebrating with my teammates, I was angry at myself, disappointed in my performance and fearful I would never see the field again – and if I did, hoping I could “just forget” about my last outing.
But when you’re way in your head, your confidence takes a huge hit, on and off the field. I thought there had to be another way!
So I made it my mission to help high school and college athletes develop a pro-level mindset to unlock the power, focus and confidence within so you can be the best player (and person) you’ve always wanted to be!
“Stepping Up to the Plate”, is a book I wrote where I personally interviewed more than 300 Major League Baseball players, coaches, managers and Hall of Famers such as David Ortiz, Randy Johnson and Ken Griffey Jr. These great players opened up and shared with me insightful wisdom about what it takes to prepare for success, handle adversity and more at the highest level.
