Two lessons with Jon - game changing.

Much better ball-striking leading to big gains in distance. He keeps it simple so practicing is way more efficient and effective. Calm and encouraging demeanor. I’m starting to enjoy golf again. Highly recommend Jon.

Had a fantastic few lessons with Jon.

His use of technology, targeted homework drills, and encouraging teaching style was exactly the refinement I needed. I’m already seeing improvements in my consistency—can’t recommend him enough as one of the best I have worked with.

Jon doesn’t just teach; he listens, encourages, adapts and inspires.

One of his true gifts is that he is able to ascertain each student’s learning style and tailor his language and teaching tools for a unique learning experience. Jon has a way of meeting you exactly where you are. His lessons are as fun as they are educational.

A True Beginner Pathway for Young Golfers

Not every junior golfer is ready for competitive training.

Beginner youth golf programs must focus on:

  • Coordination and athletic movement

  • Balance and sequencing

  • Basic swing mechanics

  • Confidence building

  • Understanding how the game works

Junior golf lessons for beginners should never feel rushed. The goal is not perfection — it’s progression.

What Junior Beginner Golf Lessons Include

1. Grip, Setup & Fundamentals

Every junior beginner starts by learning proper:

  • Grip pressure and hand placement

  • Athletic posture

  • Alignment basics

  • Ball position awareness

Teaching these correctly from the start prevents bad habits that are difficult to fix later.


2. Movement-Based Swing Development

As a TPI Certified Golf Professional (Level 2 Junior), instruction is built around how kids move — not forcing them into adult swing models.

Using TPI principles, beginner youth golf programs focus on:

  • Age-appropriate mobility

  • Rotational sequencing

  • Balance training

  • Simple, repeatable movement patterns

Young athletes develop naturally when instruction matches their stage of growth.


3. Technology That Makes Learning Easier

Even in junior beginner golf lessons, technology plays a role — but it’s used appropriately.

TrackMan (Level 1 & 2 Certified) helps simplify ball flight concepts by showing:

  • Launch direction

  • Contact consistency

  • Distance control

Swing Catalyst force plate technology introduces balance awareness and weight shift in a way kids can visually understand.

Instead of guessing why the ball curves, they see it. That accelerates learning.


4. Short Game & Course Introduction

Junior golf lessons aren’t just about full swings.

Beginner programs also introduce:

  • Chipping basics

  • Putting fundamentals

  • Simple scoring games

  • Golf etiquette and safety

For many kids, learning how to play the course builds confidence faster than range sessions alone.
