Beginner training plan
Your first lessonIntroduce oneself to one another and get an understanding of the student's goals. We'll discuss the fundamentals such as grip, stance, and what a proven successful swing looks like for most. Students will begin learning the rules and etiquette as well. Additionally, the coach will send a written recap after the lesson, highlighting what was covered.
Lesson 2-3Reiterating the importance of the student's goals to the coach. Making the lessons about you, the student. There will be a judgment-free zone during the lessons. A place to be you. A place to improve at a pace suited to the skill level of the student. During this lesson period, we'll continue to work on grip, stance, and swing mechanics. We'll be introducing the fundamentals of chipping, putting, and learn a few high-level techniques aimed at making the game more fun while shaving strokes. The instructor will introduce various coaching aids and drills into the lessons. Additionally, the coach will send a written recap after the lesson, highlighting what was covered.
Lesson 4-10During this period we'll begin making improvements toward knowing the club distances. Meaning you'll learn to choose which club to use from any distance away from the target. We'll continue honing in on the appropriate grip, stance, weight transfer, and swing mechanics. This period will also be a confidence-building experience. Accomplished by distance control, accurate reading of greens, and working to better understand golf course management. The coach will use proven practice drills to strengthen any weakness in the student's game. Additionally, the coach will send a written recap after the lesson, highlighting what was covered.

I felt there was ample time during the lesson, which let me really focus on specific areas like making my swing more natural, though I think more iron improvement is needed. It's encouraging to see such patience and attention to detail from James, and I might come back to work on those consistency issues. Still, I appreciated the relaxed pace, which made practice feel manageable and less stressful. If you're open to gradual progress with a calm, supportive approach, Iโ€™d consider trying James.

A member of the Colorado Golf Association and boasting a USGA GHIN Handicap in the single digits. I'm now focusing on helping others. From receiving repeat special invitations to prestigious events like the Golfweek US Senior Challenge to participating in PGA-sanctioned events, I've now transitioned into coaching. Hailing from Ventura County, CA, I developed an enduring love for the game from a young age. Today, I find myself even more passionate about golf, honored to coach others professionally. With patience and understanding, I tailor my instruction to each golfer's unique learning style, swing, and goals, ensuring the easiest route to success. Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, I'm here to help you elevate your game and follow your passion for golf.
