My name is Leonard, I’ve been playing golf for over 20yrs. I’ve worked with juniors to older adults on the fundamentals of golf. Grip, posture, alignment. Let’s get you fixed to play your best golf! Also, please one thing I will say about learning to play is you have to be patient with yourself. Appreciate the good shots but learn from the Miss-hits you can learn more from mistakes then hitting good shots. When you get your swing in the right shape, then you can work on shaping the ball. However, every miss-hit produces a shot shape. So understanding face position relative to swing path we’ll cover as well. See you soon!

"I looked after three girls, all under the age of ten, as a previous summer nanny in Illinois. Stella, 4, and Laney, 6, were the two youngest who were familiar with swimming while using floatie devices. Their oldest sister was already proficient, and needed minimal supervision. While swimming that summer, Laney learned how to swim properly without floaties, and Stella learned how to swim with the use of floaties. Because I was only a summer nanny, I wasn't able to fully teach them all about swimming. Years later, they all swim proficiently due to previous techniques I had taught them and continued practice.

"Sylvio was my tennis coach for about a year. He was exceptionally professional and always came well-prepared to every lesson with notes and tailored insights from our previous sessions. ​He helped me refine both my forehand and backhand strokes, but more importantly, he taught me how to adapt my tactics against different opponents, improve my court positioning, and better anticipate incoming shots. He even created custom flashcards for me to review during matches, which made it much easier to recall specific strategies on the fly. ​His coaching made a massive difference in my game. I highly recommend Sylvio to anyone looking to improve, and I would still be training with him today if he hadn't moved away.

"Hey Coach Dee, Thank you so much for taking the time to speak with the young athletes and parents today! My son of course dreams of playing for the Ducks and in the NFL. It's a pretty special opportunity to heed advice from experienced people to help them navigate their journey. I hope the younger athletes today feel inspired and the high school boys can reflect on how bad they want this and respond appropriately. Either way, one of the greatest joys of parenting is being immersed in the whole experience with them too! I certainly left with so much to think about and converse with my son about, and feeling motivated to be a better version of me as well. Thank you again for your time and thoughtfulness. Wishing the best for you and your family!
