As a total noob to golf, I needed an instructor to show me the way. I found Yumi on Yelp! and…read morepromptly gave her a call. She was able to fit me in her schedule and I got a lesson with her right away. She taught me the basics from putting to full swings in a very easy to understand kinda way. Additionally, she also offered video analysis, which was a neat application where you can actually see your swings and stance on a screen. I appreciated her patience with me while I asked her repetitive questions. I will definitely continue my lessons with her until I can confidently play by myself. Overall, highly recommended!

I have taken a few golf lessons with Yumi and my swing has improved dramatically ever since. Yumi…read moreis a certified PGA pro and utilizes video tools to expose flaws and analyze every aspect of my golf swing. Yumi is also very helpful in suggesting different methods to correct minor flaws of my swing, which includes stance, proper way of holding the club, wrist movements, etc. Now, I have more confidence in launching the ball further and straighter. In golfing, all you need is consistency and hitting the ball straight, right? Each lesson lasts for about an hour but most of the time goes beyond the hour mark. I would definitely recommend all avid golfers take lessons from Yumi. Totally worth it!

I felt like I was getting a hands-on instructor who makes lessons easy to understand. By the end of my first lesson, I was putting like never before.

Nowndale is truly an amazing golf instructor…read more The first lesson alone helped me so much. He explains everything so clearly and is very patient. I love the fact that the lessons are indoor and has cameras so that he can show me and I can see what I need to change and work on. AND there's free parking !! Something I was worried about with getting lessons was not getting my money's worth. Sometimes instructors can be very chatty and I don't feel like I'm getting an actual full hour's worth of a lesson. If that is something you're concerned about, please consider Nowndale! Every time I come in for a lesson, it is jam packed with information and practice time. He really focuses on the lesson and your improvement. I feel very comfortable asking him questions (even if they feel silly) and he'll kindly answer and help me understand. I really have nothing negative to say. I have had 5 lessons and each one has been a very positive experience. I still have a lot to learn, but I can definitely say I have improved a lot since starting lessons.

I don't want to sound like I'm hyping Nowndale up.. even though that's quite literally what I'm…read moredoing.. but everything that I say here is my complete honest thoughts. I had a previous golf coach, but he wasn't great and I started plateauing and did really, really bad. I got frustrated with golf and I didn't know how to fix my mistakes.. and my ex-coach wasn't helping either so I paused lessons with him. Then my friend recommended me his previous coach, so I went to Nowndale and after just ONE lesson, my game started improving right away I was shook!!! After 2 lessons, my form looked so much better and I kept looking forward to seeing Nowndale the next week after. It was the only thing getting me thru the week, the lessons with him. He's so, so good at explaining the mechanics of the golf swing and how to get you to do exactly what you need to do for the perfect swing. I ask so many questions during my lessons and he's so patient with me and answers all of them, and encourages me to point out my own mistakes and explain to him how I could correct them myself. He genuinely wants to see me improve, and even during my practice sessions when I get frustrated and text him, he tells me to send videos of my swings to see what I'm doing wrong to help correct me. I have recommended him to my friends as well and I really really hope he can stays here for the long term because I am for sure not going anywhere and at this point I feel like I NEED his expertise and lessons to get to where I want to be in golf. He's truly a golf pro and everytime I see him swing I have no words

After taking almost a year off from training and feeling like I hadn't really learned anything…read morebefore, coming back to train with Sean has been such a refreshing experience. I started with zero experience--I couldn't even hit the ball at all. Now I can properly swing, and I actually understand what I'm doing. Sean's teaching approach is incredibly detailed and thoughtful. He started by breaking down the fundamentals--especially posture and setup. At first, I honestly thought, there's no way I can hit the ball like this. It didn't make much sense to me as a beginner. But Sean was very patient and methodical. He walked me through each movement step by step, starting slow and focusing on the mechanics. Then, he gradually helped me connect everything together into a full swing. Once I understood the progression, everything suddenly clicked. What once felt unnatural became clear and doable. I now feel more confident, more aware of my body mechanics, and actually excited to keep improving. If you're someone who feels stuck or confused about your swing, Sean will absolutely help you build a strong foundation and truly understand the game.

The honeymoon phase is over and I have moved on. Sean is good at golfing, but I think his coaching…read morecan use some work. As a beginner, it's fine, he teaches the fundamentals real well. As I continued with him, each lesson got more layered and confusing. I felt I was learning a tour level swing and it shouldn't be this complicated. At the end of the lessons, there was never any game plan. Just a "keep working on it", which didn't feel sincere, and he moved onto the next student. All the teachers there are in the $120-$150 range so it's not cheap. Spend your money wisely, and don't go for lessons every week. It also takes time and reps to get what you learned. I feel that was part of the problem, and was not stopped.

When I first arrived early to my first lesson, I got a glimpse of him teaching a 5 year old kid who had an awesome golf swing already. He was encouraging and incredibly patient with the kid. When it was my turn he immediately diagnosed my swing problems and gave me helpful tips and drills to work on at home. Every week I now look forward to spending an hour with him dialing in my golf game. I highly recommend Coach Keith to golfers of all skill levels and ages. He is truly a one of a kind instructor who not only loves golf, but loves teaching and sharing the game with others.

I knew I could not get the results I desired on my own, so I looked up golf coaches and found Keith. I have been taking lessons for over a year and not only have I become a better and more knowledgeable golfer, I have had the opportunity to golf with others that Keith works with that are golfing at a similar level as me. I am also able to go out with other players confidently!! He is patient and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend!!!

He asked me to show him one swing & he took a video and just dissected the swing. And instead of giving me 1000 different swing thoughts, he really simplifies the game. He'll have me make one little tweak and he'll say exactly what the ball will do. Then he'll have me make another tweak and he'll predict correctly what the ball will do. He's really a wizard with it! I'm excited to see how my swing will look differently with the 10 sessions I purchased!

Very first swing after Alex's input, I look like a real golfer! Highly recommended and booking more lessons. Yes lessons are worth it especially with Alex.

Strictly reviewing the golf course. My friends and I book this course because we always see…read moreopenings early Saturday mornings. The layout of the course is pretty fun but you never know if your ball is going to end up in a dirt patch or not! When we were checking in, the guy who was checking us in for the carts was pretty rude to us as well. Also we were given a cart with a flat tire which we didn't notice until we got into the fairway of the first hole.

What's up: First time here, even though I pass by this golf course all the time. We heard that…read morethere was a cafe that served up some pretty good food, so we decided to check it out. Parking: Plenty of parking in their private lot up front. Environment: This review is only for the Whittier Narrows Golf Course Cafe. The cafe is located immediately to the right after you enter the main building (right next to the posted bulletin board). There are a handful of booth seating inside located on the left and the order counter is on the right. The menu is located overhead. We placed our order and grabbed a seat at one of the tables. There are also tables with umbrellas outside the cafe as well. Once the food was ready, the staff member brought it over to our table. The food came in to go containers so if you don't finish it like me, you'll be ready to take it to go. Utensils and condiments are located on the table that's right in front of the cold drinks fridge. What was ordered: - Sausage Breakfast Burrito (tasty and yummy salsa on the side. Also came with a couple hash brown pieces) - Orange Juice (Minute Maid bottle) Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. I'll admit, we were kind of skeptical, but the food was surprisingly pretty good. And the price was not too bad for what it's worth. Credit cards are accepted.
