Teaching Principles:

My goal is to make my students of all skill levels consistent golfers. I do this by focusing on three areas of their swing: control, balance, and tempo. Every student is different and I adjust my teaching style to fit each individual. I keep things simple and relaxed. It has been my experience that people learn faster when they are comfortable and enjoying themselves.

Teaching Principles:

My goal is to develop a positive impact position for my students while taking into consideration your body type, flexibility and core strength. Since the impact position is the "moment of truth" in the golf swing, I believe the key to a positive impact position is the ability to hit down on the golf ball with a fundamentally sound swing plane and face angle to produce consistent and predictable ball flights.

Teaching Principles:

I believe ALL golf instruction should make sense to the student. I spend a lot of time interviewing my students to determine what their goals are and to make sure we can achieve them together. Video is a valuable tool to help the student see and understand any changes that we make, and using the v1 system to e-mail their lessons to them is great tool for me as the professional and the student so they can refer to the lesson as often as they need to.
