These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.
I have been playing golf for 20 years and have been teaching for 5 years. I Enjoy getting people to learn new skills, especially if it is a skill they are struggling with. My proudest golf achievement has been shooting a 71 at Poppy Hills. My favorite golf course is Torrey Pines. When I am not teaching or playing golf, I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, and playing the drums.
"The coach is very knowledgeable, quickly identifies what I need help with, and adjusts the lessons to address even minor issues
Save ~$10-15 per lesson with me by not having to purchase golf balls at the range! Hi there, I'm Blaise! A seasoned golfer carrying a scratch handicap, and a tech entrepreneur by profession. My lifelong affair with the game has not only allowed me to master the nuances of golf but also share my knowledge with budding golfers. Over the years, I've honed my teaching skills having given well over 5,000 detailed lessons. My approach to teaching golf revolves around nailing the basics first, and then progressively moving onto the more intricate details of the game that fit your natural swing. As a former multi-sport athlete, I like to find a students natural athleticism and teach a swing that revolves around what works best for the student. Golf is hard to learn on your own. Many aspects of the game are counterintuitive and often times up means down, right means left...etc. I'll help you skip years of frustration trying to learn these concepts, and get you hitting the ball better than you thought possible. So, let's get started on this exciting journey, gradually improving your game from the fundamentals to the finer strokes, while having a blast. I teach out of a private golf simulator in Redwood City. If you're not familiar with a simulator, it's high end technology that captures every metric of both the ball and club. In my opinion, the golf simulator is the best way to work on your golf swing because you get so much more data than just hitting balls at the range. The simulator also includes a high speed camera that shows the club hitting the ball frame by frame. But mostly, it's just really cool and a lot of fun!

"My lesson with Keith was quite helpful, especially because of how he broke down my swing and pointed out small adjustments that made a difference. Still, I think there's room to refine my approach further. It’s not an overnight fix. Still, the lesson definitely gave me some useful insights to work on.

San Francisco's coastal climate supports outdoor lessons year-round, with mild temperatures even in winter and dry afternoons that suit player development at any level. The 5 active golf coaches (also called golf instructors) combine for hundreds of reviews and a 4.95 average rating, which is one of the highest rating concentrations in the state. The city's golf venues range from the world-class TPC Harding Park, which has hosted PGA Tour events, to the accessible Golden Gate Park Golf Course tucked inside the park itself, so players can match coach choice to the kind of facility they want to learn at. Fog can delay morning sessions in summer, but most coaches build flexible reschedules into their bookings so weather rarely derails a lesson plan for the week. Public access at Harding and Presidio keeps lesson supply healthy for residents who don't have country club access, and the smaller geographic footprint of the city means most coaches are reachable from any neighborhood without a long drive.
| Level | Frequency | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | Weekly | 60 min | First 4-6 sessions build grip, stance, swing path, and contact for new players. |
| Intermediate | Every 1-2 weeks | 60-90 min | Players who break 100 work biweekly on targeted skills - short game, putting, course management. |
| Advanced | Monthly | 90-120 min | Single-digit handicap or tournament-focused players - swing rebuilds and competitive prep paired with self-directed range time. |
A PGA Tour-caliber municipal course on the southwest side of the city with a full practice facility, putting greens, and a championship layout that has hosted major-tier professional events. Ideal for serious improvers who want a venue worth growing into.
