"As someone who has never taken a golf lesson before, I wasn’t sure what to expect—but you made the entire experience incredibly comfortable from the start. Being a family friend, I thought I might feel a little awkward or out of place, but it was the complete opposite. You were professional, patient, and surprisingly good at explaining things in a way that made everything feel simple and doable. I appreciated how you broke down the basics without overwhelming me, and how you gave feedback that was encouraging rather than intimidating. What really stood out was how natural the lesson felt—like learning from someone I trust, but still getting the kind of quality instruction I’d expect from a seasoned coach. By the end of the session, not only did I feel more confident in my swing, but I actually understood what I was doing and why. For a first lesson, that meant a lot. Thanks for making the experience such a positive one. I walked in unsure and walked out excited to keep learning—couldn’t ask for more from a coach or a friend.

With over 20 years of experience in competitive golf, I bring a unique perspective to coaching. I started playing at 3 years old, won numerous junior tournaments, and made my first hole-in-one at age 5. By 14, I had collected over 100 tournament trophies and was competing in professional mini tours, which eventually led me to play Division 1 golf at Cal State Fullerton. My career has included college coaching, professional caddying, and now more than 5 years of dedicated instruction for players at every level. To give my students every advantage, I use a Foresight GCQuad launch monitor, the same technology trusted by PGA Tour players and major club companies. It provides precise feedback on ball speed, spin, launch, club path, and carry distance, allowing us to track progress, spot swing patterns, and dial in exactly how far each club goes.

"Blake was a great coach! He was very helpful and I love how he can work with any person. He was also very helpful in short game and long game! Would recommend!

Kevin Nguyen is a pickleball coach who blends his athletic background and business acumen into a unique, structured approach to player development. A former varsity tennis player, Kevin rediscovered his passion for racket sports during his two years in Austin, Texas—the pickleball capital of the U.S.—where he immersed himself in the sport’s competitive and community-driven culture. Before coaching, Kevin spent years building and training franchise systems, where consistency, process, and performance were key. That experience now shapes his coaching philosophy: create clear frameworks, build strong foundations, and develop repeatable habits that lead to long-term success. Through his programs, Kevin helps players not only understand how to improve, but also why each step matters—just like training a high-performing team or franchise partner.
