Play Golf at Monterey Park Golf Club

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.

"Working with Katy has been an outstanding experience and a true catalyst for improving my golf game. She brings a rare combination of technical expertise, patience, and clear communication that makes even the most nuanced swing adjustments easy to understand and implement. Her coaching style is highly personalized, she takes the time to analyze my strengths and weaknesses and builds a plan that delivers real, measurable progress. Beyond the mechanics, she’s helped elevate my confidence and overall mindset. Every lesson feels purposeful and motivating, and it’s clear she’s genuinely invested in her students’ growth. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to take their game to the next level

For four decades, I've lived and breathed the game of golf, even competing on the mini-tours. I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience to help golfers of all skill levels elevate their game and unlock their true potential on the course.
