Teaching Principles:
My philosophy is one that I adapt the golf swing for the individual person. I believe that golf should be fun and if I can adapt the fundamentals of the golf swing to each individual person than he or she will have fun, too.
I have a disability known as Essential Tremors which affects my hands. In turn, I have had to learn how to play golf with it, so I believe that anyone can learn how to play the game of golf.
