"I had my first golf lesson with Gary and it was a great experience. He was very thorough and took the time to work with me on my driver, hybrid, and irons. He explained things in a way that was easy to understand and made adjustments that immediately helped my swing. You can tell he really knows what he’s doing and cares about helping you improve. I’m looking forward to continuing lessons with him and getting better at my game.

Zoe
Golf has been my faithful companion for 26 years, a journey that began later in life at 37 years old. Despite starting later than most, I've maintained a single-digit handicap for most of my playing career. In 2021, I achieved a significant milestone by clinching victory in the Ctamtour (Connecticut Amateur Tour), a testament to my dedication and skill on the course. Through countless rounds, I've come to appreciate the multifaceted nature of golf – from driving and irons to chipping, putting, and course management. Teaching this beautiful game brings me immense joy; I firmly believe that it's never too late to start one's golfing journey, and I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and love for the sport with others.
"Amazing Coach! Outstanding lesson!!
Niraj
I’ve spent over twenty years studying and teaching the true mechanics behind a powerful golf swing. My coaching goes far beyond “copy this angle” or “hold the club like that.” I help golfers understand where power comes from, how speed is created, how rhythm is controlled, and how to remain mentally steady under pressure. My approach blends psychology, physiology, and physical mechanics with the principles of Taichi and meditation. This fusion helps players move with clarity, relax unnecessary tension, and generate natural, efficient power. My writing on this philosophy has also been featured in Golf Digest. Every golfer is built differently—different height, body shape, flexibility, rotation speed—so every swing I teach is uniquely tailored. I focus on giving players the tools to self-adjust and self-improve, instead of relying on rigid, mechanical “positions” that only work when perfectly copied. If you want to truly understand your swing—not just imitate one—I can help you rebuild your game from the inside out. (I also hold certifications with US Kids Golf and the Positive Coaching Alliance.)

"I’ve worked with a lot of trainers, but Coach Josh stands out because he actually listens. He knows how to motivate without overdoing it, and he knows when to challenge you versus when to build you up. My confidence has gone through the roof because I’ve learned to trust my skills and stay composed under pressure. The way Josh explains things makes it all click, and he holds you accountable in a way that feels respectful, not harsh. I’m not just a better player now, I’m a smarter one too.
