I am Jon, I am 47 years old and have been playing golf since I was 5.

A career in Hospitality Management (latterly Soho House) has taught me so much; learning to manage, teach and coach an array of different people from different cultures. This in tandem with playing and coaching sports (mainly football and golf) has given me a clear direction that it is time to put it all together and become a full time Golf Coach.

As a golfer my game is still a work in progress and a journey of discovery, but I have always held a handicap between 1 and 4. I like to create the right base in my own game and walk the walk; sharp routines; good course management; and etiquette. I have even won a few decent things along the way so understand how to make  the most of all components of your game.

While I am still in the early days of my coaching career, I retain a confidence that I can help golfers of any standard improve their game using solid technique, good skills and core values. I’m also confident that I can do this while always  maintaining positive and energetic relationships with clients, whether they be  adults or kids. I have just completed my WGTF Level 1 and 2 Certificates and am close to achieving Level 3.

I like to teach as much on the Course as at the range as in the end it gives a better understanding to both client and coach what the right direction and starting points are before making the right plan.

As well as teaching experienced golfers I also love working with beginners and kids (channelling my inner 8 year old!) so I feel comfortable working in most situations. I have my DBS checks and  Safeguarding certificates available on request.
