About the coach

My name is Anthony, a PGA of Canada Class A professional and Head Coach at A1 Golf & Performance. I’ve been fortunate to coach golfers of all levels from juniors picking up the game, to dedicated amateurs, collegiate athletes, and direct mentorship with touring professionals. My reverse engineering methodology has helped players from around the world sharpen their skills and achieve their goals, and I love the mix of both online and in-person coaching.

My background in sport science, fitness and psychology has a big influence on how I coach and communicate. I view golf as an athletic pursuit, and every strategy I build reflects that. The game has given me the chance to travel, connect with passionate students, and work with golfers across every skill level — and those experiences allow me to constantly discover unique methods best suited for specific individuals.

I approach every student as a unique individual. Each golfer brings their own athletic background, learning style, and ambitions. My role is to pinpoint the key adjustments that will make the biggest difference, then present them in a way that’s simple, actionable, and easy to apply. For me, coaching is about connecting the dots — breaking the game down into clear steps that lead to lasting progress.

Ways to Succeed
An accurate assessment of what to improve.
A clear understanding of how to practice with purpose.
Consistent, precise feedback to stay on track.

How We’ll Work Together
We’ll start with a Zoom call so I can learn more about you and your game.
You’ll then send me videos of your swing (usually a down-the-line and face-on view, plus any stats you may have).
From there, I’ll provide a detailed video analysis, outlining what to work on, why it matters, and how to train it effectively. I’ll also assign specific drills and practice “homework.”

We’ll stay in regular contact with follow-up videos and feedback to make sure your practice time translates into real improvement.
