"My coach was amazing, the session was fun and I can’t wait for the next one!

I began playing golf at the age of 14 and went on to become the MVP during my junior and senior years in high school. I earned a scholarship to a Division I university, where I competed in a highly competitive NCAA environment. My coach, who had worked with professional players like Kite, Watson, and Weiskopf, imparted valuable knowledge about golf's mental game and mechanics. My coaching journey began when my daughter insisted she wouldn't play varsity golf unless I coached. For the past 10 years, I have coached girls' varsity golf, mentoring several players who have advanced to collegiate Division I schools. My approach to coaching is informed by my own experiences of learning from mistakes and mastering the game. I work closely with my students, helping them understand and overcome the challenges of golf physically and mentally.

"I loved how Paul’s coaching experience with beginner women shines through in his lessons. His approach makes learning golf approachable and enjoyable. The session was smooth and well-paced with nothing needing improvement. If you're new to golf or looking to build confidence, Paul's lessons are definitely worth trying out! ⛳😊

"Had a great time out with coach Aaron learning the fundamentals of

I’ve been passionate about tennis for over 20 years, thanks to my father who introduced me to the game at a young age. I earned my coaching certification from The Professional Tennis Registry in 2021 and have since coached for Nike Tennis Camps, Smoke Rise Country Club, and offered private lessons. As a former Division II college player, I also volunteered at an afterschool program, where I had the chance to teach kids tennis alongside a local coach. This experience, along with four years of coaching at Reading & Requests, taught me the value of listening to students and using positive reinforcement to foster rapid improvement. In my lessons, I focus on mastering the six basic strokes, keeping score, proper hand placement, and understanding the rules of the game. My classes are designed to be dynamic, fun, and structured for maximum skill development.
