For the past five years, I've dedicated myself to teaching golf, focusing primarily on juniors aged 5-17 while also offering lessons to adults of all skill levels. As a certified US Kids instructor and with four years of experience at SCGA Junior, I've honed my ability to tailor lessons that cater to each student's needs and aspirations. My background in high school and college golf not only fuels my passion for the sport but also enriches my coaching with firsthand competitive insights.
"Kerry was very patient and great at explaining what I was doing wrong and gave me stuff to work on while I’m at home or at the range myself

Imagine your swing becoming effortless and powerful. I'm a lifelong golfer with 25 years of experience, including competing on mini-tours. Let me share the secrets to unlocking your true potential on the course, from beginners to experienced players. My passion is guiding students to achieve their goals with a fun and supportive approach.
"On my first day with Byron, from my start of a few warm up swings and not being able to hit the ball consistently and minimal control, within the first 30 minutes of guidance on grip, stance, swing, and encouragement, I was able to swing better, get the ball in the air more frequently and relatively in the right direction. Byron is patient and provides feedback throughout, along with tips and guidance to take a break in between swings if some shots aren’t great or need to try a different club then go back to the one I was having some difficulty with. Looking forward to continuing with Byron.

"I’ve been taking lessons with Coach Chae for a few months now, and the progress I’ve made is incredible. Before working with him, my golf game felt frustrating—I struggled with consistency and often felt unsure about my swing mechanics. Coach Chae helped me break down my swing into manageable parts and focused on building solid fundamentals. What I appreciate most is his patient coaching style. He takes the time to watch my swing carefully and gives detailed feedback without rushing. His drills are practical and directly translate to better performance on the course. Since starting with Coach Chae, my ball striking has improved significantly, and I’ve lowered my scores by several strokes. My putting and short game have also seen great improvement thanks to his targeted practice routines. I now approach each round with more confidence and a clearer understanding of how to play smart golf. Coach Chae is definitely the coach you want if you’re serious about improving and enjoying the game more.
