With three decades of experience on the greens and a notable 8 handicap, I bring a wealth of knowledge and skill to my role as a golf coach. I'm proud to be USGTF certified, a testament to my dedication and expertise in this sport.

JUST GOLF. Academy, is a progressive approach that builds on core fundamentals while gradually introducing more complex skills. A successful strategy involves establishing rapport and investigating the student's background in the first lesson, focusing on consistency and introducing short game skills in the second, and moving towards the full swing and course management in the third.

"I wanted to make sure my clubs and my swing were getting maximum performance so I can continue to compete. After a few swings, he decided to work on my club positions right away which seems to be what was causing my left misses. After that we spoke about course management with was something I didn’t think about enough. After we were happy with the swing change we rechecked all of my clubs and made a few weight adjustments to get to my swingweight. I’ll be back soon!

| Tier | Price | What you get |

Miami's near-year-round warm weather keeps outdoor lessons workable in every month except a handful of stormy summer afternoons, which is rare among major US golf cities. The active coach roster includes a Regional Champion, a Division 2 college player from Morocco, and instructors with 10+ years of teaching tenure - meaning students choosing a Miami coach can match by playing background, not just price. The Biltmore Golf Course (a Donald Ross design in Coral Gables) anchors the upscale public segment, while Birdie Golf Studios provides indoor simulator coaching for swing-mechanic work and rain-day backup. With 6 active golf coaches in a compact city footprint, learners rarely need to travel more than 25 minutes from Brickell, Coral Gables, or Coconut Grove to find a strong fit.
| Format | Participants | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Private (1-on-1) | 1 student | $70-$200 / lesson | Fastest improvement and personalized feedback on each swing. |
| Pair or trio | 2-3 students | $40-$90 / person | Spouses, friends, or family who want a shared, cost-split experience for two or three players. |
| Small group | 4-6 students | $15-$50 / person | Lowest cost and most social; less individual feedback. Best as an intro before committing to private lessons. |
| Level | Frequency | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | Weekly | 60 min | First 4-6 weekly sessions build the foundation - grip, stance, swing path, contact. Miami's mild winters mean no weather pauses. |
| Intermediate | Every 1-2 weeks | 60-90 min | Players who can break 100 work on targeted skills - short game, putting, course management at The Biltmore or RC Walker. |
| Advanced | Monthly | 90-120 min | Tournament-focused players (single-digit handicap or aspiring) - swing rebuilds, sequence work, and tournament prep paired with self-driven range time. |

A decade of instruction with reviews highlighting diagnostic skill - slice fixes, tempo work, hip and shoulder rotation. Strong fit for students who want a clear problem-first approach.
Playing golf since age 8 and one of Miami's few active female instructors. 29 five-star reviews; a strong pick for students who specifically want a female coach.

A 1925 Donald Ross design in Coral Gables, paired with the Biltmore Hotel. It's the marquee Miami public option for lessons that want a real-course feel with mature trees, classic bunkering, and walkable layout - great fit for intermediate students who want to learn on a course they can return to alone.
An indoor golf studio with launch monitors and simulators. Ideal for swing-mechanic analysis, off-season work, weather backups during summer thunderstorms, or students who want video review paired with measurable data on club path, face angle, and ball speed.
A short-game and practice-focused urban venue used by Miami coaches for chipping, putting, and wedge work. Good for students drilling short-game weaknesses or beginners who want a less intimidating environment than a full course before moving to The Biltmore.
A coaching-friendly venue that hosts several Miami instructors for swing work and game-improvement sessions. Reasonable choice if your coach is based here and you want continuity across lessons at one home venue.
A neighborhood-park venue offering accessible practice space for beginner lessons. Lower-pressure setting for first-timers, kids, or students who want to grind fundamentals without paying full-course green fees on top of the lesson.
"Charles came in frustrated because every shot he hit was a slice, no matter what club he used. I took a look at his swing and quickly spotted a few key issues: his grip was too weak, the clubface was staying wide open at impact, and he was coming over the top in his downswing...."
"One of my students came in struggling with tempo—he would rush through his backswing and then try to kill the ball with his hands. It threw off his timing and he’d either top the ball or hit it fat. We worked on slowing down his transition, feeling the club load, and using his..."
"Christopher has been an amazing golf instructor. He has taught me a ton about every part of my game, from stance and grip to swing, putting, and chipping. He explains things very clearly and has a lot of knowledge about the sport. I have seen real improvement and would highly ..."
Patient coaches with a track record of clean first-lesson reviews and accessible practice venues. Plan for 4-6 weekly 60-minute sessions to build a foundation - grip, stance, swing path, contact. Miami's mild winters mean beginners can start in any month without weather derailing the schedule.
What to look for: Reviews from beginner students mentioning patience and clear explanations; entry-tier pricing in the $50-$95 range; coaches teaching at venues like J. Fritz and Frances Gordon Park or Paul S. Walker Urbanscape that lower the intimidation factor for new players.
Try Barbara R.Coaches with playing badges (Regional Champion, college-level backgrounds) who can rebuild a player's swing and work on tournament prep. Sessions usually 60-90 minutes, paired with at-home or range drills between meetings, and often run at The Biltmore for real-course conditions.
What to look for: Stated playing-badge presence; pricing in the $130+ tier; coaches who discuss handicap reduction, course management, or tournament prep directly in their listings.
Try Christopher W.Instructors who lead with the specific issue a player walks in with - slice, fat contact, tempo, hip rotation - and design the lesson around fixing that pattern. Good fit for intermediate players stuck in a habit, not learners who need full fundamentals from scratch.
What to look for: Listings or reviews that describe specific student problems and the diagnostic fixes used; 25+ reviews so the diagnostic pattern is visible across many sessions; comfort working with launch-monitor data at venues like Birdie Golf Studios.
Try John W.October through April offers the most comfortable temperatures for outdoor lessons. Summer (June-September) is workable but expect afternoon thunderstorms; morning lessons (before 11am) avoid the storm pattern and the worst humidity.
