"Hello! I took a private lesson with Phil & he was amazing! He helped me dissect each part of my game, from dinking, to serving, to paddle grip & backhand. He was very patient explaining the "why" behind each technique. I will be taking more lessons over the summer! Phil, you are a great instructor! Myriam B.

I bring 19 years of experience playing and learning the game of golf, with a background as a college-level athlete and collegiate golf team player, and extensive competitive experience. During high school, my team qualified for the state championships, and during that same period I competed in high-level matches, including a head-to-head match against Sam Horsfield, giving me early exposure to elite competition and pressure situations. While I have a strong understanding of the technical side of the golf swing, my teaching approach is not overly technical. I’m a feel-based player, and just like I play the game, I teach it—focusing on feel, awareness, and simple keys that translate naturally to the course. I believe great golf comes from understanding what to feel, not being overloaded with mechanics. A major part of my instruction focuses on the mental side of the game, which I believe is often overlooked. I’ve studied golf psychology extensively, including Bob Rotella’s golf psychology work, and I help students develop confidence, commitment, and trust under pressure. I’ve worked with golfers of all skill levels, helping students improve ball-striking, consistency, confidence, and course management. Every lesson is tailored to the individual, emphasizing changes that are easy to understand, repeat, and hold up on the course. My goal is simple: help you play better golf on the course, not just hit good shots on the range. If you’re serious about improving and want coaching that blends experience, feel-based instruction, and a strong mental approach, I’d love to work with you.
"Amazing! Loved his coaching ! Super amazing skills :)

"Alan is top notch. Professional yet approachable. I've golfed plenty over the last 30 years, but never had any instruction and struggled to be in any way consistent. Alan figured out immediately what my main issue was on the first lesson, and by the end of the hour I had much improved. He also gave me guidance on what to work on to improve when I'm on my own.

When I first arrived in Florida, the ocean's vastness filled me with fear. But as I delved deeper into its mysteries, I realized my fear stemmed from the unknown. Through surfing, scuba diving, sailing, and paddleboarding, I've forged a profound connection with Mother Ocean. Each wave carries a lesson: to embrace the unknown, to work with life's currents rather than against them. One of my most valuable lessons is that the best surfer has the most fun. Join me for an unforgettable experience on the water, where we'll conquer fears, learn life lessons, and, most importantly, have a blast while exercising!
"Kimberly helped me get over my fear of the ocean by teaching me water safety and holding my hand every step of the way. Now I love surfing and the ocean!!!"

"My wife and I had been playing pickleball for a few years and felt stuck in our ability to improve further in the game. Our desire to increase our skill level led us to Jim who was teaching/coaching at Veterans. We were very happy with his approach from the get-go....he listened to our frustration in our abilities in detail, then observed as we played, sat us down for review on what he saw (things we never noticed on our own about our technique ), then started with drills to improve and helped us with our "mental game" - while playing a match and strategies. We would highly recommend Jim if you are looking for a coach/instructor to move to the next level.
