Asian Golf Centre teaching professionals are members of the United
States Golf Teachers Federation (USGTF) who have passed their stringent
tests and certification in one attendance. USGTF is one of the world’s
acknowledged teaching body and leader in the field of golf coaching.
Our teaching instructors are not only armed with full comprehensive
knowledge of the swing, bio-mechanics, the law of the ball flights
but also with the learning behaviors and attitude of athletics especially
beginning golfers and why golfers seeking lessons to play a better
game. We adopted a unique teaching method to impart the why and what
that is vital for the students to produce an efficient swing so that
the club will hit the ball accurately all the times. We also understand
that students come with different learning ability based on their
education, training and profession that they process. Some students
need our instructors to do more demonstrations; some require more
specific explanation and others may need the instructors to assist
them to move the body physically. The receptivity of each
student is different and also at different level during the progression.
There are exception students that who require physiologically helps
and an extra touch to enhance their learning ability.
The goal of our instructors is to help students in the learning and
understanding why they have to make specific body movements in a golf
swing and how to master it in the shortest time. This is very beneficial
because it will enable the students to do all necessary self checking
during their practices. We do not conduct the “control and command”
lessons which the students are told to do this and that with no questions
to be asked. Our lessons include many amazing dynamic drills to
enable the students to enjoy the learning in a much fun and memorable
way, and finishing the lessons with high esteem. We also do not advise
students to swing like our teaching instructors because they have
not gone through the formal training that we have. We encourage
student to swing within their ability to build a strong swing foundation
so as to facilitate the future learning of techniques to hit balls
in all conceivable positions when they play on the golf course.
The goal of students in acquiring lessons and objectives are different.
Men are motivated to hit the ball farther like the tour players
whereas most women are more inspired to produce a graceful swing movement. Whichever their goals are, we can customize the lessons to suit
the student’s passion and inspiration.
Regardless of your athletic ability and playing level, we teach
you to play your game better with more in-depth practical golf swing knowledge
as well as further understanding on the following topics:
