Echoes from the Dojo
Echoes from the Dojo
As a parent deeply invested in my son Griffin’s development as a high-level baseball catcher, I can say without hesitation that working with Josh Paul and The Lobo Dojo has been one of the best and most impactful decisions we’ve made. Josh has been mentoring Griffin for over a year now, and the change in Griffin’s mental approach to the game has been transformational.
Josh brings a rare and invaluable perspective to mental training. His background as a former Major League Baseball player, scout, and coach gives him a depth of experience that few in the youth development space can match. He understands the pressures, the grind, and the mindset required to succeed at the highest levels—and he’s able to translate that wisdom into actionable strategies for young athletes.
What sets The Lobo Dojo apart is its focus on the mental side of performance, which is often overlooked in youth sports. At this level, everything tends to revolve around physical skill development—exit velocity, pop time, sprint speed, mechanics. But without mental resilience, focus, and emotional control, those physical tools can’t be fully leveraged. Josh has helped Griffin build routines, manage pressure, and develop a mindset that allows him to stay locked in regardless of the situation. That mental edge has elevated Griffin’s performance and confidence both on and off the field.
Josh’s approach is personalized, thoughtful, and rooted in real-world experience. He doesn’t just teach mental toughness—he cultivates it. The Lobo Dojo isn’t just a training program; it’s a competitive advantage. For any serious athlete or parent looking to invest in long-term development, I can’t recommend Josh Paul and The Lobo Dojo highly enough.
