The Northern California Institute of Golf provides an athlete-centered approach to improving a student’s game. Golf Coaches are trained to understand not only technical swing techniques but perhaps more importantly, the human skills of golf. We build long-lasting, trustworthy relationships while having the student understand the most important aspects of the game and practice habits for effective results.
Improvement in golf happens through a systematic “Step by Step” process focusing on development that allows golfers to develop and participate no matter what level they currently may be and no matter what their golfing aspirations and goals might be. What step are you on? What step would you like to achieve? Follow the Northern California Institute of Golf’s “Step by Step” approach and reach your true potential!
