Tom House, PhD is considered by many to be the "father of modern  pitching mechanics". He is a cofounder of the National Pitching  Association, which leads the way in three-dimensional analysis of human  movement, the physical preparation to support this movement, the metabolic  preparation to fuel human activity, and the necessary mental and emotional  make-up to accomplish all of the above. House pitched on the professional  level from 1967 to 1979 for the Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, and the  Seattle Mariners. He has coached since 1980 for the Houston Astros, San  Diego Padres, Texas Rangers, and Chiba Lotte Marines (Japan), as well as in  Latin America. On the amateur level, House is an information and  instruction coordinator for 12 baseball academies across the United States  and Canada. He directly accesses 5,000 to 6,000 player, coaches, and  parents per year in clinic settings. He travels the world as an  international consultant, performance analyst, and sports psychologist.  House is currently an advisor with the American Sports Medicine Institute  and the Titleist Performance Institute, was a cofounder of the Pitch It  Forward Foundation, and has paneled seminars for the American College of  Sports Medicine.
