"Made incredible progress in our first lesson together - excited to see where things go!

I’ve been golfing for over 30 years and as I grew older I’ve learned to maximize what I have. I’m 5’6” and though I consider myself an athlete, I do believe a good swing can be achieved by good fundamentals and what I call positioning. By ingraining certain aspects of a swing, we can continue to improve by doing. I’m just a low-handicap golfer who want to teach average golfers good fundamentals as a takeaway, so you can start to improve on your own. I’m not a teaching professional, but I was a design instructor at an art school for over 17 years, I hope I can make improving your golf game fun.

"The lesson was quite helpful in pointing out specific aspects I need to work on, especially with my putting stance, though I still feel there's room for improvement. Megumi made some useful suggestions that I plan to focus on in future lessons. Still, I’m cautiously optimistic about making steady progress, and I might give another lesson a try soon.

James's input really clarified some key points, which I hadn’t fully understood before. Though I still need to practice more, I feel more confident about improving my swing and avoiding those mistakes again. It’s encouraging to see tangible results from just this one lesson, and I’ll definitely try to build on what we discussed. If you’re looking for someone who helps you pinpoint specific issues and guides you without rushing, it’s worth trying James out.

After a couple of years as a playing professional, he went through the PGA training in the UK and became a teaching pro at Blackmoor GC in Southern England. Michael then took a job with well renown European Tour teacher, Jamie Gough at this golf school in Cape Town.

Michael also spent time caddying/managing on the European Tour in the 2005, he has done 3 TPI classes through the Titleist Performance Institute as well as many other classes, courses to grow his knowledge.
