The drills that Mike uses and teaches are fun, challenging at first, but rewarding in the end. My players learned to love hitting and more importantly felt success which resulted in them not only liking baseball but loving this great game.
Since we have been introduced to Mike’s training back in 2004 my team has made it to the state finals on 3 different occasions and to the super sectionals on 2 other occasions. In 2009 we won our first state championship hitting over .360 as a team! I know that next season and for seasons to come I will continue to teach and refine the Hubie Magic hitting approach to all of the teams that I coach and programs that I lead. I thank you and the team thanks you. I look forward to working with Mike again next season."

"I met Hubie three years ago, one year after I was convinced I was out of baseball for good. After playing college baseball, I coached two years at the high school level. My teams were good defensively, but they lacked the offensive fire power to win the majority of our games. I just taught my kids what I was taught--make contact by swinging down on the ball. Disappointed at the results of my own playing career and my coaching record, baseball soon became a distant memory.
However, after learning Hubie's approach, I became involved in baseball once again. I have been currently playing in adult hard ball leagues the past two summers, and I have been hitting at a level I was never capable of when I was 18-22. More importantly, I started teaching the Hubie Magic approach to kids, and was amazed at the results! Its incredible how being able to hit a baseball can really change a kids life--they begin to exude more confidence, which in turn leads into a better performance in school, more positive risk taking, and a decrease in social anxiety.
Ultimately, as a teacher, I know how important these results are for adolescents. The resent performance at Foreman High School, where I was the hitting instructor this past year, speaks for itself. The Varsity team knocked off powerhouse Lane Tech and advanced to the city semi-final game. In the process, the Foreman team set numerous offensive records. In particular, power production increased dramatically, as did the walk total (not to mention the fact that the strikeout total decreased in the process).
This is a critical example of how the Hubie Magic approach works. Many coaches associate an increase in power numbers with! an increase in strikeouts. However, this is not the case for the Hubie approach. Power numbers will increase, as does the ability for the player to make consistent contact."

Instructor Testimonials
I learned the swing from Hubie and immediately went through his certification program. I began teaching lessons and quickly taught my 13 U baseball team the methods.
Over the course of the season, it was obvious that we were out hitting teams and hit lots of extra base hits. The "special technique" helps the bat pick up speed through the zone as well as helping the hitter match the swing plane to the pitch plane.
In our first year as a team, we won our league championship and led the league in nearly every offensive category.

Thanks Mike, one of the benefits that I see as a hitting instructor is, by focusing first on getting dug in with the back foot and using your "ass" muscles to drive the hip, the hitter cannot start early with the hands, the body won't allow it to.
So as a teacher, we don't have to focus as much on the hitter going back to bad habits by leading with the hands or pulling the front shoulder out because the "Hubie Move” prevents the top half from starting early as well as keeps the hitter from shifting lower half forward. His technique and system totally simplifies hitting and gets hitters to reach their potential much quicker. Coach Tim Halloran
Good Day Baseball Fans,
"My name is Matt LaBuda and I am currently the V Baseball Coach at Bradford High School in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Hubie magic is truly magical! The majority of the boys bought into the philosophy whole heartedly. Kids that were struggling at the plate the last couple of seasons saw their batting averages jump 20, 30, 50, 100 points! My team hit .325 last year and this season with an intense concentration on the Hubie Magic drills and philosophy the team ended up hitting .363!!!
Mike "Hubie" Huber has linked into one of the secrets of baseball that many people are too blind or stubborn to realize. To be successful at this kid’s game called baseball why try to reinvent or tell players how to hit. But instead, Mike has spent countless hours studying arguably the most successful hitter of all time, Ted Williams. Mike is teaching a proven successful hitting strategy of a proven successful Major League Baseball player...
What it Means to Be a Hubie Magic Hitting Instructor.
Truth:
Most coaches and hitting instructors, who teach rotational hitting, have little success. Why? Because many of them don’t take the time to learn one hitting system and then teach it to their hitters. They often try to incorporate bits and pieces of information that they pick up from various people. Hubie Magic’s certification program enables you to learn the best system available for power hitting and teach it correctly to your team players.
