What separates you from other golf coaches? First off I'm not a golf professional. I once was but left to do my own thing when I decided the standard coaching system was not for me.
I have based my coaching ideas on personal experience, scientific study and my interest in what I call natural learning. I have blended this knowledge to come up with what I think is a complete golf coaching model.
I don't have anything against PGA professionals, I simply found conventional instruction based on too many ideas and perceptions. There was also too much contradiction. This led to confusion and ultimately poor play.
Getting away from traditional thinking has allowed me to discover learning strategies and systems that have had a profound influence on my golf game.
What makes your coaching style so different? I don't prescribe to "technical only" theories. I strongly believe that your golf swing is only part of the equation. For this reason I don't spend much time talking, reviewing or analysing your golf swing.
I teach people to learn naturally. Most people can throw a ball, walk, talk and drive a car to a high standard. I help show you how to apply your instinctive skill to your golf game.
This hidden inner talent will allow you to realise your full golfing potential and have more fun on the golf course then you would ever think possible.
Once you can play more instinctively and naturally it becomes far easier to make changes to your golf swing.
Where are you located? My teaching studio is located at 146 Burwood Road Hawthorn. Direct number is (03) 9815 1878 or 0403 372 261. Look for The Ladies Tee Golf Shop, near the corner of Power Street

Can I learn more about your coaching methods? The best place to learn more about me and my coaching ideas is to visit my golf blog. It contains more detailed lessons and coaching tips.
Are any top players using your method? I have been credited with teaching Aaron Badelley his putting routine. I did this nearly 10 years ago and hadn't fully developed my concepts or ideas. I'm grateful to Aaron for his recognition and support.
I don't have any 'famous' professional golfers using my system. Although I do believe that most of them use some of my concepts unknowingly.
In recent times I've been approached by local professional players, Pennant players and single figure players. This has been a great test of my coaching ability and one that I've enjoyed. Most importantly, what I do can help ALL golfers and is not aimed at any specific skill level.
Do indoor golf lessons really work? I think indoor learning is the perfect environment for my system. With a big part of my ideas based around thinking less and playing more, the removal of normal golf course environment makes learning much more effective. I have found that golfers find it easier to ignore ball flight and swing mechanics and place their attention on more important areas while playing inside.
Lesson availability and comfort are not affected by the weather. Which is also a good thing :)
Lessons can progress to the golf course once learning systems are mastered.
How much can I expect to improve? This obviously depends on the student. I firmly believe that all golfers can improve after one lesson. I also don't evaluate performance on score alone. Some golfers report that enjoyment and easiness of play has improved although score (or handicap) remains the same.
The learning process can be a slow and steady one. This is normal. It would be great to say you'll drop your handicap by 8 shots. This is neither real or believable. I prefer to say that you'll make significant gains in learning and enjoyment. This can only help you play better.
If you don't fix my swing how can you help me? The easiest way to describe what I do is to say I teach you to play golf like you drive a car.
Most people drive a car with confidence (perhaps over confidently?) and high skill. Golfers can spend years playing horrible and ugly golf - they never experience the same easy and natural style of their driving ability.
Once you can learn to trust your subconscious learning capabilities your golf swing will change naturally. It's just that you won't be trying to do so. This process will increase your confidence and remove self-doubt.
You also won't be taught anything mystical, new age or associated with NLP. You won't be asked to meditate, do relaxation exercises or stand on your head. All lessons are golf orientated and involve you learning to swing (chip or putt) with your golf clubs.
How are you different from sports psychologists? I describe myself as a natural learning expert. I don't pretend to be a sports psychologist. I like to focus on the blending of physical and mental skills.
Can I work with you and a regular coach at the same time? Yes. Some clients like to work with me in conjunction with a swing coach. I don't interfere with any technical aspects you may be working on and will only compliment them.
