"John is very knowledgeable and immediately came up with simple fixes to my swing problems. Was already hitting much better after 15 minutes. Also came up with a plan to hit some of my goals. Will be following up with more lessons!

I played professionally for 5 years. Caddied on the LPGA before opening my own business. I make learning simple - fundamentals first, then learn how to move the body and the club will follow. There are only a few effective ways to swing a club, I teach a swing that is designed around a neutral spine. I want my clients to have the same, heathy swing - no back pain, hip pain, knee pain etc - from when they are 7 years old to 90yrs old without having to change a thing. I teach men and women of all ages - My youngest client is 7 and my oldest is 87. My first client was struggling to break 100, now he shoots in the 70s. I believe in doing the best I can with one person at a time. When they see success, their friends and family will want in on the experience of playing better golf. I also do: physical training, rehab, strategy and mental work for golf

"Zach has been an incredible influence on my son over the past year, not only helping him improve his golf game, swing, and course management, but also teaching him the mental side of the game- confidence, resilience, discipline, and composure. What makes Zach truly special is that he goes far beyond coaching golf. He genuinely cares about the athletes he works with. He has become a mentor and role model my son deeply respects. At 15, those influences matter tremendously, and we are so grateful for the character, integrity, and encouragement Zach continually pours into him both on and off the course.

"My son was just starting out golf when he took his first lesson, I’m happy to say he has improved greatly and can play with me on the course now. He loves golf and loves learning everything he can he has thoroughly enjoyed these lessons

Golf has been my lifelong passion, beginning with my college years at Lindenwood University in St. Louis, where I honed my skills on the course. I gained valuable experience working at Hernan Rey's Golf Academy, refining both my game and teaching abilities. For three rewarding years, I served as a caddie, accompanying players like Tano Goya and Emilio Gonzalez on the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour. Also, I’m currently working for Danielle Kang at the LPGA. These experiences have shaped my deep appreciation for the sport and its intricacies, and I continue to cherish every moment spent on the fairways.

"We love Facu, he coaches our son. He has been able to identify areas of improvement and provides drills to improve his swing.

With over 10 years in the golf industry, I am passionate about helping golfers of all skill levels improve their game and enjoy the sport. My love for golf began on my high school golf team and grew into a career focused on teaching and player development. I am dedicated to creating a positive, supportive enviroment where students can build confidence, consistency, and reach their full potential on and off the course.

With over 50 years in the game, I bring elite playing experience and mentorship-driven coaching to golfers who want real improvement. I’ve played iconic courses like Pine Valley, St. Andrews (Old Course), Muirfield, Winged Foot, Pinehurst No. 2, and TPC Sawgrass — and I teach the strategic insights those venues demand.

"Steve is my husband of only 3 years. We lived on a Golf course in San Diego and played the game Horse on the putting green 2-3 nights a week. He helped me to feel comfortable and confident about what to do on a golf course. I was so nervous always. Now everything is fun. It’s only a game and Steve has shown me not to take it to seriously.

TPI-Certified Golf Expert - Founder of Golf-Ed. - 20,000+ Lessons Taught About Me: I believe golf instruction should bring clarity, not confusion. Too many golfers spend years grinding away at their game without seeing real progress—not because they lack effort, but because they lack the right guidance. I’m Dave Stanley, the founder of Golf-Ed. (educateyourgame.com) and a Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Certified Expert. Over my career, I’ve taught more than 20,000 lessons to players of every skill level, from complete beginners to winning Tour professionals and college scholarship athletes.  My coaching philosophy is built entirely around the "Body-Swing Connection." As a TPI Level 2 instructor in Golf, Power, and Junior development, I don't believe in forcing you into a cookie-cutter, idealized swing model. Instead, I integrate biomechanics, fitness, and swing mechanics to build a swing that actually fits your unique physical capabilities.  When we work together, I use extensive video analysis so you can see exactly what your swing is doing and understand the why behind every change we make. My goal is to cut through the noise and give you simple, actionable feels that you can trust under pressure. Body-based coaching allows for quicker improvement, fewer injuries, and a lot more enjoyment on the course.  Whether you want to fix a stubborn slice, maximize your clubhead speed, or finally break that scoring plateau, I’m here to help you Educate Your Game. Let's get to work!

"Dave has the uncanny ability to see immediately where your swing fault is and give you drills to do at home to get you back in the groove! I never left a session where I wasn't hitting it much better! I wish I could have him watch me hit balls every day. I've taken many lessons over the years and Dave by far is the best instructor I've ever had.
