Teaching Philosophy

My coaching philosophy is simple: teach golfers to teach themselves. Most golfers are guessing with their swing, and my job is to show you exactly what's happening, what needs to change, and how to build a reliable, repeatable pattern. I combine modern technology, video analysis, and structured practice to help you make lasting improvements — not just short-term swing changes. I draw on my background in sport psychology to help students understand their own games at a deeper level, giving them the knowledge and tools to diagnose problems independently and keep improving long after our sessions together. Whether we're working on your takeaway, your ball striking, or your course management, every lesson is built around clarity, simplicity, and practical drills you can actually use. Golf is a game played on the course — not the range mat — and I want every student to feel confident and capable wherever they play.

About the coach

I'm a PGA Professional and golf coach based in South Manchester, working with golfers at Prestbury Golf Club, Adlington Golf Centre, and online with students all over the world. I qualified as a PGA Professional in 2018 and have spent a decade working in professional sport, bringing a structured, evidence-informed approach to every coaching relationship.

I've completed over 9,000 online lessons, helping golfers of all levels hit it further, lower their scores, and develop more consistent swings through video analysis and personalised coaching plans.

If you're ready to stop guessing and start playing better golf, I offer a free swing review or consultation so we can build your plan together.

Mastering the Backswing

Building a Powerful and Balanced Backswing This video series focuses on creating a backswing that maximizes power, control, and consistency. A great backswing is more than just turning your shoulders—it’s about coordinating your body, arms, and club to achieve the perfect position at the top. We’ll cover the key elements, including proper weight transfer, maintaining spine angle, and achieving the right club and arm positioning. You’ll also learn how to avoid common pitfalls like overswinging or losing balance. By the end of this series, you’ll have a backswing that sets you up for a smooth transition and a powerful downswing, improving both your accuracy and distance.

Mastering the Takeaway

Mastering the Takeaway for a Consistent Golf Swing This video series dives deep into one of the most critical parts of the golf swing: the takeaway.

We’ll break down the mechanics step by step, starting with grip and posture, then moving through shoulder rotation and proper club path. You’ll learn how to avoid common mistakes, like early wrist hinge or overactive arms, and develop a smooth, controlled takeaway that sets you up for consistent ball striking. Whether you’re a beginner refining your fundamentals or an experienced golfer seeking more precision, this series will help you build a reliable and repeatable swing.

Alignment Basics

Alignment is a cornerstone of a successful golf swing. Proper alignment ensures that your body and clubface are positioned to direct the ball toward your intended target. Misalignment can cause compensations in your swing, leading to inconsistent shots and missed opportunities. By focusing on alignment, you build a foundation for better accuracy, improved ball striking, and greater confidence on the course. It’s a simple but critical element that can elevate your game.
