I've been wanting to understand golf on a deeper level for a while, and she created such a comfortable and encouraging environment where I could ask questions...even the ones that felt a little silly...

Thank you so much Michelle! The epic 5 star reviews is a telling sign that you are an incredible coach and appreciate your guidance!

Had my first trail lesson with Sean today. He was very different from what I was expecting; in a…read moregood way. He is very detailed about understanding the basic and theories of swing so my swing can be repeatable. It is like breaking down the "physics" of golf by bits and having you to understand why each bit is important for a good swing. A little note form my lesson today: Gear 1: body Gear 2: arms Gear 3: hand and clubs - They should be lock, unlock, lock OR unlock, lock, unlock. NO 2 connecting locks or unlocks. Stage 1: gear 2 movement, gear 1 and 3 lock. Make sure the swing up is above the plane (or above "water level") then swing down plane. Armpit is connected to the body and not loose, loose of arm and body will cause gear to loosen up. Stage 2: arm swing with hip movement finish; or 3 quarter swing. Starts with stage 1, finish with hip rotation forward, left hip on top of ankle (weight forward). And slight head tilt.

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.

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!

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!

Sometimes there can be a 1 to 5 yard difference from the posted yardage. You will need a Sand Wedge and Putter, a 3rd club could be a 60 degree or a PW.

Sand is so compacted and hard it makes shots more difficult than they have to be . There are also no ball washing stations on the entire course ! They have a bucket of water one the first hole !

They also have a cafe I am looking forward to trying eventually. There is also a pro shop that is fully stocked with everything: Clubs, apparel, golf gear, and even a grip shop. I highly recommend Monterey Park Golf Course!

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.

Before I forget, they are a cashless facility. Sometimes I buy golf clubs at the thrift store. I'm not sure if they rent them, but you could always ask. What made my last visit so fascinating was the employee working at the driving range. I didn't know where I could buy a Tee for the mat, so I took the chance and asked the worker if I could buy one there. He said I'll bring one down for you on my way back down. I said thank you and deep down I was so grateful it was going to make my experience so much better. I am a woman who has been golfing since high school. I have never taken a lesson although I love the sport. I've only ever stuck to the driving range. It's my thing. Someone once told me no one is a professional out here unless you have a green blazer. lol I got the joke

Alhambra golf driving range and course are an excellent place to start learning how to golf…read more The range has a shot tracer that you can connect to your phone to track all of your shots. It can get quite busy during peak hours and especially in the summer. There is also an area to practice short pitch shots and a sand trap. A bucket of balls cost a bit more than the average range but the shot tracer is well worth it. The 18 hole course is a bit better than your typical muni course. Greens aren't in the best shape but they are decent for the cost of the round. There is also a proshop with all you need and more to play a round. I highly recommend Alhambra Golf course!

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.

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.

People's Yoga in Monterey Park (near ELAC) exceeds my wildest dreams. This single studio with wooden-floors and plants is homey and yet located on the second floor of a plaza and across from the metro station (Atlantic stop). It's truly a delight - not to mention the one and only Latina-owned yoga studio is the area (if not LA?). My favorite class is "Body Soft" on Thursday nights at 7pm with Diane. This class is for those that want to ease into yoga (a.k.a. Beginners) or those who need to chill from a long work week. But...please don't meditate into sleep. Yes, rarely does snorting ensue. On-site parking is available and the studio provides all the equipment and even water, just bring your own water bottle. Pre-registration is recommended as the studio only accommodates so many people. If the single class price is steep for your budget, check out their packages as they offer a built-in discount. Also, first timers can try out a monthly on a discount. For the yogis or yogis in training, you may be interested in their training program. Personally, I'm not a fan of virtual movement classes because I prefer to be in-person, but for those on a shoe string budget that may an option. Either way, I LOVE People's Yoga! Shout out to Leah and Lauren, co-founders, Latina mama business owners, and yoga instructors. Their dream to open this brick and mortar became a reality years ago and has been going strong for years.
