Teaching philosophy...
Starting with the basics of proper balance, good foot work, alignment of the spine (posture) and a good connection with the club (grip), virtually any person can become a consistently better golfer! When the basics are applied, they build a "swinging of the club." Once the proper posture is achieved, the position of the club head improves through the hitting area and club head speed will increase, giving the golfer more consistency and distance. Applying some of these same basics to the short game will improve this area as well. Remember that is takes time to build a repeating swing, and when you finish a lesson you will have a much better understanding of what to do even if you can't produce that "perfect" swing immediately.
