Golf is all about “muscle memory.” My first 10 years of golfing were based on my own swing, and I could not improve enough during that time. Then I met an instructor who tried to fix my “form” for next six months. Do you think I was fixed? Yes and no, because it actually took me almost two years after those lessons to truly adjust. Why 2 years? Because my muscles were stuck to the 10-years-old form and resisted not to get adjusted! Why do I share my experience? Because a beginner should start golfing with an instructor, regardless of the lesson fee. Whoever is certified can teach you how to perform a proper golf swing. The only thing you need to do afterward is repetition on your own at the range. The more you practice, the faster your muscles memorize the movement. Golf is all about “muscle memory.” And muscles must be memorized in right way! Since I got my swing fixed—not perfectly, but very close to a standard form—I have been giving lessons to friends and their friends. I was finally certified by USGTF last September. My rate is low because I am new to TMT, but I have already met a good number of students within a handful of months. I teach not only how to swing, but also how to practice on your own. Golf is “practicing,” and that is everything. Without practicing between lessons, you will need to invest much more time and money, because you are not using enough of your own time to improve. People say a tour pro hits 10,000 balls to adjust a single point in their swing. Then how many balls do you think you need to hit? Of course, you are not a tour pro, but you still need to hit as many balls as possible for your muscles to memorize the movement. With my 25 years of experience and structured drills you can practice by yourself after each lesson, I can help you improve step by step. Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions.

"The lesson with Hasan was quite focused and helped me understand some key positioning tips, though I still think I need to work more on dribbling. Still, I’m optimistic about improving my control in future lessons and might give him another shot.
