"Meeting Ryan and giving myself a chance to learn the right way through his teaching is one of the smartest things I’ve done this year along my “learn how to play golf” journey. I’m a late starter at 39 having never really taken golf seriously before, I had initial apprehensions about lessons, thinking I wasn’t ready for them, not having what I thought was a strong foundation. Ryan does an amazing job of giving his students a point of reference with every lesson alleviating any “is this right for me” apprehension and making form and technique resonate. While I have a long way to go (again, only 5 months in) I’m confident enough to go out for a round when I can, to start working on grass. Every lesson has brought and continues to bring significant progress and increased opportunity. Thank you sir, Pretty life changing; I’m grateful for your teaching and guidance.

Beginners are Welcome! If you are a beginner or coming from another racket, or paddle sport, and never played, my lessons are designed to help establish a solid foundation to build on. I began my teaching journey as a volunteer, assisting in community clinics with beginners and mid-level players. My focus is on developing sound fundamentals through the use of drills to provide more confidence when stepping on the court. Either a beginner or you've been playing and want to improve, I truly believe everyone can enjoy the game at any level with sound fundamentals, and a basic understanding of the game. It's a wonderful sport and I'm excited for our first session together! Paddle up! E

"Bill is awesome . I like his coaching style. We got a lot of play time and he taught us here and there during the play or in between the play which made it fun. His instructions were easy to understand and to follow. Highly recommended.

I am a very patient coach and I always keep it simple for my students. I try to give you the least amount of information and thoughts as possible, but the information I give you will make the biggest difference in improving your game. Too many thoughts about a motion will interfere with the effectiveness of your swing. I also incorporate the latest coaching techniques in golf, technology including aboutGolf's premium golf simulator launch monitor technology or TrackMan/Full Swing golf simulator launch monitor technology, and other training aids when appropriate. I really enjoy working with students who love the game as much as I do and seeing the improvement in my students. When someone shoots their best round ever or just has a breakthrough moment during a lesson it is so rewarding! Let me share my passion with you and help you to enjoy this great game even more!
