Teaching Philosophy

I believe great golf coaching starts with understanding the person in front of me — not just their swing, but their body, their lifestyle, and their goals. My background as both a TPI-certified coach and a qualified personal trainer means I look at the whole picture: if your body can't move into the positions the swing demands, no amount of swing tips will create lasting change. Through a professional physical screening process, I identify the specific restrictions, power leaks, or mobility limitations that may be limiting your performance — and then we fix them, on and off the course. I use video analysis to give you clear, objective data so you always understand exactly what's happening and why. But beyond the technology and the technique, I care about making golf genuinely enjoyable and accessible for everyone. As an ostomate myself, I know first-hand that the game can be played and loved by anyone, regardless of what life throws at you. My sessions are always friendly, supportive, and focused on real, lasting improvement — not quick fixes.

About the coach

I'm a PGA Professional and TPI-Certified Golf & Fitness Coach based at St Mellion Golf Estate in Cornwall. My coaching combines technical golf instruction with a deep understanding of how the body moves — something most golf coaches simply can't offer. As a qualified personal trainer with a TPI certification from the Titleist Performance Institute, I conduct professional physical screenings that pinpoint the exact restrictions, swing faults, or power leaks in your game. From there, I build a personalised programme designed to unlock new potential — whether that means more distance off the tee, better consistency through the bag, or faster recovery between rounds. At St Mellion, I work with golfers of all levels and ages, from complete beginners to more experienced players wanting to take their game to the next level. I'm also a proud ostomate — and that experience has shaped who I am as a coach. It's taught me resilience, perspective, and a genuine passion for helping people break through barriers, whatever they might be. If you're ready to understand your game better and play with more confidence, I'd love to work with you.
