Choose from either a 30 minute or one hour tailor made private lesson with one of our Golf Professionals. During the 30 minute session your Golf Professional will be able to help you with any aspect of your game from driving to putting. The one hour lesson is more suitable for new golfers who require a more detailed lesson or for players who wish to cover more than one aspect of the game.

Our philosophy ensures that your commitment to improve is rewarded with our commitment to assist you. As well as instruction on your swing you can expect guidance in key areas such as custom fitting, physical conditioning, injury prevention and treatment.

To encourage you to practice, we will give you free unlimited use of the Academy driving range facilities on the day of your lesson.
