"The lesson went well, really, focusing on one section at a time meant Emily wasn't overwhelmed, which was quite helpful for her first time back on the court. Though I hope her forehand starts resembling her previous shape soon, I appreciated how the approach was measured and clear. Still, I think with a bit more attention there, her technique could really improve. Ryan's way of breaking things down makes a difference, if you're thinking about trying him out, I’d say he's worth considering to see how steady guidance can support your game.

I help beginners and improving golfers build confidence, learn golf fundamentals, and make focused progress from the first lesson onward. Whether you are new to the game or working toward lower scores, I can tailor our time to your goals, including driving, irons, wedges, course management, and on-course decision-making. I am a single-digit handicap golfer with 12 years of playing experience, and I compete as part of my high school team. I have been trained by PGA Championship winners and multiple Division I coaches. Using advanced data metrics from my FlightScope launch monitor, I help connect your swing, ball flight, and measurable results so we can identify clear areas to work on. I teach online and in person at Moscone Park Golf Practice Area, Presidio Golf Course, and TPC Harding Park in San Francisco, as well as Pruneridge Golf Club in Santa Clara. I provide clubs, equipment, balls at hitting bays, and a launch monitor. Range balls and course fees are paid by the student onsite. Bring your clubs if you own them and a good attitude.

"I've had the pleasure of working with Brock for a few months now and have improved from a 22hcp to a 16hcp. He has been great in terms of reinforcing proper fundamentals in my technique but also tailors instruction to my swing, which I greatly appreciate. Highly recommend Brock to anyone looking to improve!
