Lessons in
Orting.

Orting sits in the valley directly below the garage — Tehaleh is up the hill on the plateau, about ten minutes from downtown. If your player runs with Bonney Lake-Sumner Little League (where Orting kids play) or Orting High School ball, we're likely the closest 1-on-1 training option there is.

About 10 minutes up the hill from downtown Orting.
Why families from Orting

1-on-1, on film, with a plan that comes home.

Orting families used to have two choices: haul across the valley to a shared Puyallup facility, or make do with team practice alone. The garage is the third option — ten minutes up the hill, one coach and one player, every rep on film, and a written practice plan in your inbox within 48 hours.

Meet your coaches
Coach Andy Layman — headshot in the dugout

Coach Andy Layman

Mechanics · HS Prep

Coach Andy played shortstop through Ellensburg High School before moving to center field at Central Washington University (2006–2008). He's been coaching since 2008 — first at Ellensburg HS, then summer ball with the Cle Elum Lumberjacks, and the last three years at Bonney Lake-Sumner Little League.

Andy's coaching philosophy: build confidence, get consistent reps, and meet each kid where they actually are. Mental toughness gets equal weight — in a game where failing 60% of the time still makes you elite, the inside game matters as much as the swing.

At GBB, Andy focuses on hitting mechanics, the mental game, and high-school prep — and can work with any age.

Coach Dylan Winner

Fundamentals · Defensive Foundations

Coach Dylan grew up in Southern California's competitive South Bay scene, playing catcher, pitcher, and first base from 1994 to 2005 — including championship-winning Freshman and JV teams at Narbonne High School. He's been coaching kids ages 4 to 8 for three years, most recently the 2026 Tehaleh Padres.

Dylan's philosophy: watch first, then meet the kid where they are. Every lesson should end with four things — they had fun, they learned something new, they got better, they walked away more confident.

At GBB, Dylan focuses on defensive foundations and a fundamentals-first approach — and can work with any age.

Leagues & schools

Orting kids play in Bonney Lake-Sumner Little League — the same league Coach Andy coached in for three seasons before opening the garage, and the league most of our players come from. We also see players headed for Orting High School ball and the Orting School District.

For Orting families

The drive you already make

Orting kids play in Bonney Lake-Sumner Little League, which means valley families already head up toward the plateau for practices and games. The garage sits on that same drive — about ten minutes up the hill — so training isn't a new trip; it's a stop on a road you know.

Small school, big opportunity

The high-school years come home to Orting High School, and smaller-school ball is an opportunity in disguise: rosters are tighter, so a kid who shows up with a trained swing and a reliable glove doesn't just make the team — they play. The return on individual training is highest exactly where rosters are smallest.

A valley kid's off-season

The rhythm that works for Orting families: a session every week or two through the off-season (that's when swings get rebuilt), lighter in-season maintenance around BLSLL practice nights, and the home plan — 2–3 drills, 15 minutes a day — running in your backyard between visits.

FAQ · Orting

Where do you train Orting families?

At our garage gym in Bonney Lake, WA. We share the exact address after you book your first session. About 10 minutes up the hill from downtown Orting.

What ages do you coach?

Five through eighteen. Either coach can work with any age — Coach Dylan focuses on defensive foundations and fundamentals, Coach Andy on hitting mechanics, swing decisions, and the inside game.

Is the first session really free?

Yes. The first 30-minute session is on us — recorded, walked through after, and you walk out with a coach analysis. No commitment to book again, no card on file. Whether you book a second session or not, you keep the footage.

Are sessions recorded? Who can see them?

Every session, every rep. Footage gets uploaded to our YouTube as an unlisted video — only people with the link can watch. We send the link to you the same week along with a written practice plan.

What does the practice plan look like?

A coach-written email in your inbox within 48 hours: what your kid worked on, what's going well, the one thing to focus on this week, and 2-4 specific drills to run at home with cues + a video demo for each.

What does it cost after the free session?

Forty-five dollars per 30-minute session at standard rate. Thirty-five dollars if you grab a Founding 10 spot — the first ten families to enroll lock in that rate for six months. We don't push memberships at families who don't want them.

Do you do team clinics or small groups?

Yes — small-group clinics for 4 to 8 players, usually run on weekends. Hit our contact form to put your team on a list and we'll work out a time.

My Orting kid plays Bonney Lake-Sumner Little League. Do you work with BLSLL players?

That's most of who we train — Orting players share a league with our Bonney Lake and Tehaleh families, and Coach Andy coached three seasons at BLSLL. The valley-to-plateau drive is about ten minutes, and most Orting families pair a session every couple of weeks with the home plan we send after each visit.
