David Quattrociocchi

Based in the Greater Toronto Area, I have dedicated my career to training athletes since 1998, driven by a profound passion for promoting an active and healthy lifestyle while honing proper athletic techniques. My commitment extends beyond personal fitness; I am equally zealous about enhancing my clients' gaming prowess. Renowned for being tough yet understanding, I provide tailored guidance to each

player, fostering an environment where they can surpass their potential. Recognizing the significance of top-notch training, I invest substantial time in continuous education.

 

This commitment has led me to collaborate with high-caliber athletes at the National, International and Professional levels. My formative years playing under legendary Canadian coaches, such as Rick Johnson, Remo Cardinale, Jack Middlemass, Gary Wilson, Denny Berni, Steve Breitner, and esteemed NCAA Top Coaches like John Cohen, Mitch Gaspard, and Matt Deggs, not only imparted baseball skills but life skills as well.
