Teaching Academy


The Fundamental Golf School....
     preparing golfers for the game of a lifetime!

Our staff of highly trained and experienced instructors is dedicated to teaching players of all ages and skill levels the fundamentals of the game of golf.  We have created an environment where men, women, and children can comfortably learn at their own pace either individually or in small groups.

Through the use of a state of the art video analysis system, players are able to see strengths and weaknesses of their swing, compare their swing to that of their favorite tour professionals and see the dramatic improvements that they have made over time!
