Teaching Philosophy
Our instructor believes instruction should be based on accomplishing students’ goals. Students and the instructor should work together to determine what the students’ goals should be, develop an agreed upon plan, and follow that plan.
Swing Philosophy
To effectively make solid contact consistently, the golfer must be in balance throughout the entire swing. The golf swing is different for each person and instructions should be given taking a golfer’s physical characteristics into consideration.
