Teaching Philosphy
To teach each person individually a simplified golf swing that takes into consideration the student’s goals, motivation and physical ability.
To develop successful relationships with my students based on trust and cooperation.
To develop self-sufficient players that have a keen understanding of their swing and swing tendencies.
To contribute to the enjoyment of the game by teaching people to have realistic expectations and goals and how to work toward them.
I believe that correct grip, posture and alignment are the foundation of a good golf swing with correct weight transfer being the key component that contributes to solid golf shots. The analysis of impact alignments and ball flight will determine the in-swing flaws that need to be addressed.
Keys to My Success
Listen to each client
Have a positive, fun personality
Teach the impact drill focusing on solid and straight shots and then progressing to a longer swing as the student sees and feels that same solid shot
Teach each student how to PRACTICE with a PURPOSE
Explain the 'WHY' of every adjustment
