Timothy is excited to be a part of the Calabasas Country Club team as their Director of Golf Instrucon. He brings with him over a decade of experience and a lifetime of passion, with a hunger to create lasting experiences.
"Getting a lesson with Timothy was quite helpful, especially since I’d say the lesson highlighted some useful areas to focus on. Though, I’d still like to see more emphasis on my swing mechanics to really feel confident. Anyway, definitely worth trying if you want a balanced approach to improving your golf game.

With kids it's all about fun. From putting games to hitting a ball on the range, enjoying the experience is always my key focus. Proper golf manners and learning how to work with others is also important when picking up the game, as I have learned myself. These lessons go far beyond the golf course and that is my overall goal when working with kids. Patience and gentle persistence is my main approach to achieve this.
