“Teaching students how to have fun is our top priority. The golf skills will follow”

“We all have different physical limitations, levels of coordination and levels of development. To try and teach all golfers one swing model does not work. Golfers need to understand the fundamentals and how to balance them with their individual abilities”

Traci Zonneveld

Traci’s teaching philosophy is not a cookie cutter approach to the golf swing. Individuals are different, therefore the approach to lessons are based on the student’s goals and encouraging a proactive role from the student in the teaching process. Lessons are taught in an environment where learning is fun, informative, and developing a lifelong appreciation for golf.
