The Academy at Bella Collina

Unlocking the “Perfect Golf Swing”

“Welcome to the inaugural class of The

Academy at Bella Collina,” commented Jim Kroll, Director of Golf, and PGA Professional at Bella Collina. “Our teaching philosophy is simple. We take what the student does naturally, and try to make it better. We are not here to completely overhaul and re-invent your golf swing.” You can just imagine the relief that came across the room of 16 golfers, looking at this Academy as being a challenge to fit in. “Over the next two-days, our goal is to take the swing that you have developed over time, refine it, introduce specific mechanics to help you improve, and ultimately increase your overall consistency” Kroll commented. “Ask plenty of questions, have an open mind to changes and with some focus and determination, you will notice immediate improvement in your game” Introducing the balance of the teaching staff, we knew we were in good hands. Dan Hatcher – Head Professional at Bella Collina. Dan is a Class A Professional, serving his apprenticeship certification at the iconic Bay Hill Club and Lodge in Orlando, Florida. Dan’s proficiency to diagnose the golf swing gives you the confident assurance that you are quickly on the road to improvement. Todd Meena – PGA Golf Professional. Todd has been ranked as a top golf instructor in the state of Florida by Golf Digest Magazine for over 15-years. He was also featured on The Golf Channel’s “Academy Live.” Todds enthusiasm for the game as a former member of the European Tour and his ability to quickly analyze your golf swing are a perfect fit for any student. During your time at the school, make sure to take plenty of notes as we all did, using the extensive handbook given to all students which covers all of the core aspects of “The Academy”. Course management and individual swing drills are also highlighted in the manual which many golfers tend to struggle understanding and implementing. At the conclusion of daily instruction, all students are invited to play a round of golf on Bella Collina’s magnificent Sir Nick Faldo design. The golf course boasts impressive views including dramatic elevation changes that will test both your skill and creativity. The club is proud to be one of the top private golf courses in Central Florida, offering members and guests access to world-class amenities coupled with exceptional service.
