PRIVATE LESSONS WITH SCOTT ANDERSON
My teaching philosophy is simple: Golf is not a ‘one size fits all’ sport (and yes, it’s a sport - Golfers are athletes!). Every golfer’s physical make-up and learning styles are unique and as a result, their golf swings should be too! As a teacher, I work with my students to collectively develop a realistic path that puts them in the best position to achieve their goals.
I want my students to embrace their special individual skillset. I strive to ensure that a player not only understands how their golf swing works, but how to play golf. I believe it’s important to provide a fun, inclusive and welcoming learning environment where it’s actually encouraged to color outside the lines by tailoring lessons to each player’s unique skill set and learning style.
Whether it’s their first day playing or you’ve been playing for decades, I enjoy working with students of all experience levels and believe everyone who picks up a club is a golfer. We’ll work together to achieve your golfing goals!

PRIVATE LESSONS WITH JOHN SCANLAN
I like to emphasize the fundamentals when teaching the golf swing, from the setup to the follow through. There are many ways to hit a golf ball and my goal is to get my students to optimize their swing. Not everybody can hit the ball like a pro, but everyone can set up and hold the club like a pro and you would be surprised to know how important this is.
As a PGA Class A Member I can provide lessons that will cover anything you need, whether it’s a simple tune-up, fundamentals, rules, course etiquette or starting from scratch. I enjoy teaching people how to play a game they can enjoy for a lifetime!
