"I had a fantastic golf lesson with Renée! She quickly analyzed my issues and used videos to show me what she was going to change about my swing. In the span of one hour, she literally added 50 yards to my drive!! I can't wait for my next lesson!!

Testimonials

"With a slight change of grip, Renee cured a slice that had been deemed incurable by my golf buddies. This achieved more than a laser straight golf shot. Renee is seriously terrific. Best golf lesson I have ever had."

- Randy E.

"I must say I was very lucky to have discovered Renée. She is an amazing coach and has a lot of great tools/techniques to fix any problem you might have in your swing. I highly recommend her to anyone, from a novice to a seasoned golfer looking to improve their game. The only thing is you need to lock down appointments early, as she's quite popular and her schedule fills up fast."
