I have an associate degree in Golf Course Management and a Masters in Public Administration. I worked on cruise lines like the Caribbean, Carnival Cruises, etc, for 10 years as a Golf Professional. The cruises were in Europe, the Caribbean, the US, and Hawaii. I taught lessons on sea days, set up tee times in port, and played with passengers. After the cruise lines, I worked at golf courses, mainly teaching. I enjoy teaching beginners to advanced players. I will accommodate individuals if they are more comfortable learning in groups. I'm experienced in using the V1 system for video analysis of the swing.

" Ina was terrific for me. Before Ina my handicap was 30 plus or minus 5. After a couple of lessons, and a few weeks of playing and adhering to Ina’s easily applied weight distribution and maintaining spine position, I am happy to say golf is much more enjoyable. My handicap dropped to 20 plus or minus 5 now. I shot an 86 last week on a par 72 course which is my career best. Before Ina when topping or chunking shots I had no idea what I did wrong. Now when I occasionally chunk a shot I know why it occurred. It is easily corrected by reverting back to what Ina taught in those two lessons. Now my goal is to shoot for a 10-15 handicap. I can’t believe how much she has made this game so much more enjoyable. Don’t get me wrong I still get frustrated at times - but I am much more consistent and playing better than ever before. Next up will be a couple of lessons on chipping where my game is the most inconsistent at present. No matter what your level is I strongly recommend Ina for anybody desiring improvement and finishing a round with much more satisfaction.
I’m a professional golfer currently competing at a high level, with a +5 handicap and a collegiate background from UCSB.

I’ve also had the opportunity to work alongside some of the biggest names in the industry. I’m excited to share my knowledge with you and help you enjoy the game while reaching your full potential.
"Absolute stud! Knows his way around golf and has really helped improve my swing. Can’t wait to keep working with him.
After working at my local golf course growing up, I went through the PGA Golf Management program at New Mexico State University. From there I started working as teaching professional at Golf Made simple teaching 3 day classes to 4 golfers at a time. I’m Then promoted to Lead instructor trainer teaching the new instructors how to properly teach and coach classes. Now I teach full time at several different venues.
"I really appreciated Reyes’ patience and clear instructions throughout the lesson. He was great at spotting mistakes and explaining how to improve, which helped me understand my game better. If you want a golf lesson with solid guidance and clear feedback, Reyes is someone you should definitely learn from. Give his lessons a try and see the difference for yourself! ⛳🙂

The roster includes a former D1 athlete, a coach with both a golf-course-management associate degree and a Master's in Public Administration, and a 1-handicap player with 25-plus years of competitive experience. Several coaches teach across both Phoenix and Scottsdale, so students who travel between the two cities for work can keep the same coach.

91 reviews highlighting an unusually warm, confidence-building teaching style. Strong fit for nervous first-timers, couples learning together, and anyone who has been intimidated by traditional country-club coaching environments.

D1 college athlete with a perfect 5.0 rating. Strongest pick for competitive juniors, college-bound players, and adults working on tournament prep who want a coach who has played at a high competitive level themselves.
A resort-style 18-hole course in central Scottsdale with full practice facilities (driving range, short-game area, putting green). One of the more accessible resort venues in the city and a strong choice for both beginner playing lessons and intermediate course-management work.
An 18-hole course in north Scottsdale with a quality public-access reputation. Useful for intermediate and advanced students who want to practice on a layout that demands real course management, including elevation changes and strategically placed hazards.
A par-65 executive layout in south Scottsdale, ideal for beginner on-course transitions and short-game-focused playing lessons. The shorter routing keeps round times under 3 hours, which works well for after-work lessons and quick playing assessments with a coach.
Public 9-hole course with a lighted driving range, which is unusually useful for evening lessons during summer when daytime temperatures are extreme. The lighted range extends practical practice hours into the night, and the 9-hole layout supports short on-course lessons.
Indoor simulator venue in Scottsdale with launch-monitor bays. Essential for summer afternoon coaching when outdoor temperatures push past 110, and useful year-round for detailed swing-mechanic analysis (clubface, attack angle, swing path) that range work alone can't reliably capture.
"What fun! Having a lesson from Rita! She exudes passion for teaching. My wife never held a club before last May and wasn't sure why we were going 50 miles to a driving range. I'd kept the lesson a secret. I wanted an instructor who could ignite a passion for golf. Rita was per..."

Scottsdale has an unusual concentration of warm, confidence-building coaches who specialize in players intimidated by traditional country-club golf culture. The right coach here can take a complete beginner from never-held-a-club to enjoying nine holes within a small block of lessons.
What to look for: Reviews from spouses, partners, and first-time learners specifically. High patience-mentioned review count and a willingness to teach at beginner-friendly venues like Continental or Coronado.
Try Rita R.Scottsdale's depth of resort-quality courses and competitive-tier coaches makes it one of the best US markets for advanced students. Multiple coaches have D1 or 1-handicap playing backgrounds, which matters when the goal is tournament prep rather than casual improvement.
What to look for: D1 college athlete or low-handicap (sub-3) playing background, comfort teaching at Stonecreek or Orange Tree, and reviews from advanced students working on specific scoring goals.
Try Mike P.Several coaches teach across the broader Valley, including both Phoenix and Scottsdale venues. Useful for working professionals who split time between the two cities and want to keep the same coach for consistency.
What to look for: Multi-venue listings spanning both Phoenix and Scottsdale, high review volume (100-plus reviews indicates the coach has scaled), and willingness to teach at both indoor (Loft Golf Studios) and outdoor venues.
Try Robert M.Scottsdale's peak coaching window is November through April, when temperatures are perfect and snowbird demand pushes coach calendars full. Book 2 to 4 weeks ahead for weekend morning slots December through March. Summer (June through August) requires pre-9am outdoor sessions or indoor simulator work at Loft Golf Studios.
