My work within the area of golf instruction covers all aspects of the "game". Golf is multi-faceted, and thus requires patience, a soft touch, a soft approach to enculcating the dynamics of the sport. Having "played" the game for 30 plus years, i have observed various "teaching" styles, and have incooperated many aspects of these into my instruction format. i am a firm believer that golf is more than advancing the ball down the fairway, onto the green and sinking the putt. It mandates, certain acceptable behaviors, called etiquette, which is not stressed enough in todays instruction. I have successfully taught for 4 years through The First Tee Program of Central Arkansas, thereby, allowing me to have interworking relations with youth to adults. Golf is the greatest game ever devised, i love the game so, and do my best to present that in my teaching.
Swimming: learned to swim at age six, began competative swimming at age 8 and continued until i was 38. I have taught many age groups, and many styles/ stroke forms. It is my firm belief that everybody needs to know how to swim, not competatively necessarily, but to have basic grasp of the skills necessary to keep one alive in the body of water which they may find themselves in: lake, river, pond, ocean, pool. My style of teaching is hands on, in so far as is necessary, with the full understanding that i will teach to the necessary acceptance of my pupil. Swimming is physically demanding, therefore, i like to know that my pupil(s) have the necessary stamina to last a half hour or more in the water.
within the confines of golf, i like being outdoors, playing on some of the most beautifully designed peices of terrain on earth, the challenge of the game, the pleasure derived from doing well, watching the advancement of skill levels: knowing i can only play myself, and it is a game that can never be "won", in that sense, only improved upon.
