Fueling the next generation of golfers is my passion. With 25 years experience and as a former D1 athlete, I offer tailored instruction to help players unlock their full potential. Expect focused, yet fun sessions designed for lasting improvement.

For nearly three decades, I've cultivated a passion for golf. Although soccer was my first sport as a child and in college, I realized as a young adult that golf was my true passion. I honed my golf skills with every chance I could and eventually began sharing my expertise with other aspiring players. My personal golf training background includes 2 years of George Gankas Golf Academy and putting lessons from Marcus Potter. In my twenties, I began competing in amateur tournaments, with a notable first place finish in a flighted stroke-play event. In my late 20's I transitioned to work as a turfgrass maintenance intern at Cherry Hills Country Club and assistant superintendent at Colorado Golf Club. This golf course maintenance experience has given me an in-depth knowledge of turfgrass, which helps me provide a specialization in greens reading and understanding of course conditions. I aim to blend technical proficiency with an engaging, enjoyable learning experience. My dedication ensures students not only improve their game but also develop a lifelong love for the sport.

With over 15 years of experience playing drums and a strong passion for teaching, I am excited for the opportunity to share my knowledge and skills with aspiring drummers. Since starting my journey at the age of 14, I have performed original music and honed my craft in various bands, currently playing professionally with Castele and Long/Last, as well as participating in several studio projects. My diverse experience in both live performance and studio recording has equipped me with a well-rounded perspective on music and rhythm. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to learn from great teachers and some of my favorite musicians, including JP Bouvet, Joseph Arrington, Matt Garstka, Adam Tuminaro, Justin Scott, Mike Johnson, and many others. Their methods have greatly influenced my teaching philosophy, which emphasizes improvisational freedom and the expansion of rhythmic vocabulary. I believe that each student has unique needs and learning styles, and I strive to tailor my approach to ensure that everyone feels empowered and inspired to grow as musicians. I can teach all levels from beginners to advanced students. Covering topics such as learning the fundamentals, developing an effective practice routine, approaches to improvisation, exercises for creativity, learning songs, composition, recording techniques, and more! Lessons are offered in studio in Monument, and at home in Colorado Springs. I look forward to working with anyone interested in exploring creativity and building confidence in their drumming abilities.

"I have been a self taught drummer for years and hit a skill ceiling. With Tristin’s teaching, I’ve been able to elevate my skills in such a short time. He is very knowledgeable and proficient at what he does. He’s also always down to help out whenever you have questions. He creates great weekly routines to follow that really help hone in on your skills. If you’re looking to learn the drums and become great at it, I’d highly recommend Tristin to be the guy to help you out!
