Hi, I'm Reco, a proud Wounded Warriors Vet. With a 0 handicap (Scratch golfer) and a background in teaching, I'm eager to offer an effective and enjoyable learning environment. Let's refine your game together!
"Amazing instructor! My daughter loved him!
Raised amidst the picturesque landscapes of Sweden, I embarked on my golfing odyssey at the age of six, laying the foundation for a lifelong passion. Earning a coveted scholarship to UC Davis in California, I further honed my skills on the collegiate circuit, blending academic pursuits with a love for the game. From the age of 17, I've shared my expertise as a golf instructor intermittently, cultivating a deep understanding of the sport while nurturing aspiring talents. With a penchant for power and precision, my trusty driver remains my favorite tool, propelling me towards new heights on the fairway.
"I loved how Alexandra is patient and adjusts her teaching style based on my needs. The lesson felt personalized and easy to follow, which made practicing more enjoyable. If you want to improve your golf skills in a supportive environment, Alexandra’s lessons are definitely worth trying. Looking forward to more sessions! ⛳🙂
With over 15 years of golfing experience spanning the US, Ireland, Scotland, and the Caribbean, golf has become my life's passion. I relish the game's history and every facet of instructional golf. I'm committed to sharing the joy and benefits of golf by imparting technical skills, feel, and fundamentals to help others excel and enjoy this remarkable sport. Join me in the journey of improvement and lifelong learning through the art of golf instruction.
"The lesson with Alex was very good, I don’t expect dramatic changes overnight I appreciated how he explained some key aspects of my swing clearly, which got me thinking differently about my approach. I might need a little more practice, but I think I’ll see progress if I keep working at it. If you're looking to improve your basics, Alex's lesson is worth trying.

Experienced golf instructor with the ability to introduce the game to the most novice beginners or tweak the experienced, competitive swing. I’ve been playing golf my entire life from the time my father brought me to the driving range & his clubs were as tall as me! The game is easy, but it can also be as hard as you want to make it. I like to start from where you are and enhance your game as much or as little as you’d like!
"K.C. Is very practical, engaging, and fun to learn from. He really knows his stuff and I look forward to future lessons from him!
For three decades, I've navigated the greens as both a competitor, reaching the Mini-Tour level, and a passionate instructor. My approach blends technical expertise with a deep understanding of the mental game, empowering students of all levels to refine their skills and unlock their full potential on the course. I believe golf is a journey of continuous improvement, and I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
"Dan was great! He’s very knowledgeable and very good at noticing even the slightest of details in your swing that results in unfavorable outcomes. Definitely recommend!
I have been playing golf since I was 9 years old and have won several tournaments over the years. I know how to have fun on the course but also understand the technical aspects and techniques that come with each part of the game. We will not only work on your swing but also mindset and how to think and make the right decisions while on the course. Let me help you drop some strokes.
"Great attitude and awesome ability to simplify the golf swing!
Former collegiate golfer and caddie at Augusta National. Taught by my father Jim Dent, who led the PGA tour in driving distance 12 consecutive years in a row with 13 tour victories!
"Whoa, that lesson clarified weight transfer in simple steps, plus solid driver tips. I’ll sharpen short game and approach shots next, and I’m already planning to book again soon.

"I was really impressed with Heidi. Rather than giving me a hundred things to work on, she noticed a couple of issues that if I can correct will fix most of the other issues that I have in my swing. She is very knowledgeable with the mechanics of the golf swing and is obviously a professional instructor. I am so happy to have found Heidi.
I love the game of golf and would enjoy teaching younger/beginner golfers the tips and techniques I wish I would’ve known sooner. I’m by no means a professional but I’ve been playing since I was five years old. I already taught all my friends how to play so I thought this would be a fun way to earn some extra income while doing what I love.

Reviews consistently mention a relaxed, comforting demeanor that lands well with first-time players, adult learners, and anyone who's been nervous about taking their first golf lesson.
| Format | Participants | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Private (1-on-1) | 1 student | Fastest improvement, personalized feedback on every swing. |
| Pair or trio | 2-3 students | Spouses, friends, or family who want a shared, cost-split experience. |
| Small group | 4-6 students | Lowest cost; less individual attention. Good for casual players or as an intro before private lessons. |
Tampa's subtropical climate supports outdoor golf year-round, with mild winters that draw snowbirds from cooler markets and consistent dry seasons that limit weather-related cancellations. That mix gives students real choice based on what they want from the lesson - whether it's fundamentals, swing rebuild, or competitive prep. Tampa's summer afternoons get hot and frequent thunderstorms roll through from June to September, so most coaches book lessons early morning or late afternoon during the wet season. Tampa is also a strong city for adult learners because the bay-area public-golf culture is welcoming to first-time players and the surrounding venues offer multiple difficulty levels, so students can progress without changing instructors or facilities.
| Level | Frequency | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | Weekly | 60 min | First 4-6 sessions build grip, stance, swing path, and contact for new players. |
| Intermediate | Every 1-2 weeks | 60-90 min | Players who break 100 work biweekly on targeted skills - short game, putting, course management. |
| Advanced | Monthly | 90-120 min | Single-digit handicap or competitive players - swing rebuilds and tournament prep paired with self-directed range time. |

"Jay P. Melvin's detail and IQ about the game is like none other. Been to many golf teachers and no one could get me right but him. He truly cares about his students where he will put the time in you as long as you put time into the game. If you want the most value for golf les..."
