For the past five years, I've dedicated myself to teaching golf, focusing primarily on juniors aged 5-17 while also offering lessons to adults of all skill levels. As a certified US Kids instructor and with four years of experience at SCGA Junior, I've honed my ability to tailor lessons that cater to each student's needs and aspirations. My background in high school and college golf not only fuels my passion for the sport but also enriches my coaching with firsthand competitive insights.

With a passion for golf that spans years, I teach real golf not just how to hit the ball. We will be going out on the actual course by lesson 8. I bring a wealth of experience to the fairways as a 7 handicap golf instructor. Specializing in swing training, strength conditioning, and mastering the art of the driver swing, I deeply understand the game's nuances. My dedication extends to perfecting short games and putting techniques crucial for success on the course. I seamlessly integrate my extensive knowledge of 18-hole course play rules, ensuring my students excel in technique and navigating the game's complexities. With years of coaching experience, I pride myself on cultivating talent and instilling a love for the game in each student. Whether honing skills on the range or strategizing for on-course success, I'm committed to guiding golfers of all levels toward their full potential. Please Note: All Cancellations must be made 24hrs before lesson scheduled time. Lessons cancelled after the 24hr window within reason will be charged at full lesson price.

My golf journey has spanned 35+ years. Growing up, I worked at my local course in various capacities, but nothing brought me joy like the summers spent as a junior golf instructor. I competed in junior, high school and college golf. Today, I love teaching all ages and skill levels. I'm eager to share my passion and expertise. I look forward to cultivating your love for this great game. Bring positivity and a smile to your lesson, and we're going to have nothing but fun.
"Patrick’s lessons are always quite helpful, and the pace is nicely easy, giving tips along the way that make it feel approachable. I still need to work on consistency, but I appreciate the steady guidance, you really get a sense of progression.

I'm Katy, and over the past four summer school seasons, I've taught junior golf group lessons in camp clinics, catering to ages 3-18. Beyond that, I've developed my coaching skills through 1-on-1 instruction, working with individuals ranging from 14 to 55 years old. Back in 2017, I had the privilege of volunteering as a health & wellness advisor for a D1 Women’s Golf Team for a semester. On the competitive front, I've played against some top golfers like LPGA Rookie of the Year Jillian Hollis, Jessica Porvasnik, Clare Legaspi, Cindy Oh, and more. Before diving into our first lesson, I always start with an assessment to understand each player's personality, their mental game approach, and the unique ways in which they learn. From that foundation, our inaugural lesson will focus on observation—watching how you swing or play. After which, we circle back to mastering the fundamentals, complete with personalized drills. You get to decide the lesson's focus, be it putting, chipping, short game, or even a 9-hole playing lesson, all based on your golf aspirations. I believe in nurturing from within first. The ideal player I work with understands that a positive mindset is the foundation for a successful physical game in golf.
"In one session, Coach Katy noticed and fixed my problem. From my baseball grip, addressing the ball, to finishing my swing. Now my grip is relaxed, I bow and slightly bend my knees, and finish by hugging the tree. Coach Katy made me comfortable and made funny analogies to fix my problem. Great coaching
