I can't recommend coach Abraham enough. He's incredibly patient, very knowledgeable, and genuinely…read morecares about helping you improve. Since working with him, my golf swing has improved significantly, and he has a great way of breaking things down so the game actually feels simple and approachable. He's down to earth, easy going, and makes every lesson feel relaxed rather than overwhelming. Overall, he makes learning golf an easygoing and enjoyable experience. If you're looking for a coach who knows the game and knows how to teach it, he's the one. He'll provide you with real time data by using his mobile device to capture your lesson. He also provides feedback via videos, photos, and example through his app. Thanks Abraham for giving me the confidence and support to get out on the golf course.

His teaching style is relaxed yet focused, his approach is respectful, and the results have changed my game. You don't have to be a member at LMGC to take lessons from Dan, just call the pro shop and work with them to find a time on his calendar that works for you. The day of your lesson be sure *not* to wear jeans, and show up early to get warmed up on the range before the lesson. Even if the driving range is set up on mats, lessons with Dan are on grass. Crucial, that. Dan's rates are reasonable, and he always gives me a full hour lesson. On Wednesdays and Saturdays he sets up a digital video camera/laptop combination that enables him to do real-time swing analysis during your lesson. If you are a golf geek you'll relish the opportunity to see yourself in super-slow-motion with lines drawn in for swing plane at address, takeaway and impact. At the end of every lesson we review everything and go over the four or five keys to focus on. He always takes time with me to make sure what we covered has sunk in, and will be repeatable when I'm playing or practicing on my own. In addition to lessons on the range he also does walking lessons on the Lake Merced Golf Club course. Most importantly are results: Dan has helped my game immensely, and has been fun to learn from while doing it. When I finally do break 90 this guy is going to get at least half of the credit.

Hubby & I've been wanting to improve our golf game for quite sometime. What motivated us to…read morefinally do it was the Living Social offer. Yes, I experienced the same with Mitch not returning my message. It's because he's busy teaching. I sent him an email instead, and he promptly returned my phone call. Since then, you book your lessons online. Just take a look at his availability. Easy. Hubby and I spent an introductory hour with Mitch. We liked his style of coaching and his explanations made a lot of sense. We felt so comfortable with him that we signed up for 12 hours of semi-private lessons with him on the spot. We are still his students. Forget the text book techniques. Mitch can evaluate you and offer tips and help to improve your golf game for sure. I've told Mitch over and over that I can use a mini-Mitch when I'm on the course. He's the best. I didn't realize how good he was until I read his bio weeks into our lessons. I'm glad. His credentials are awesome! I think I woulda been way too intimidated.

There are a million different tips and tricks on how to improve your golf game on the internet…read more.. videos, step by steps etc, and I've tried em all. The thing is, none of these resources can watch your swing with an experienced eye like Mitch's. I considered myself an advanced amatuer, having only been playing for about a year, but was feeling like I had hit a plateau in my game. I bought a lesson 3 pack from Mitch and I feel that having completed 3 1 hour lessons with him my game is on track to improve significantly. Mitch has an easy going no attitude approach to helping you work on your game, and is very good at listening to you about the areas that you would like to improve and then focusing on those. Highly recommended for anyone looking to take their game up a notch, and their handicap down.

I'm really glad I signed up my daughter for these soccer lessons. Each week, she engages in a…read more40-min session, where she gets to interact with others kids, and learn developmental skills appropriate for her age group. They learn things like stop, go, wait your turn, and following direction. They learn how to work in a group, and also to work independently, or with partners. They learn to run, kick the ball, but do other things like kick the cones, run around the cones, etc. The activities from week to week change, nothing's really ever the same. She's not learning soccer moves or how to play soccer, per se, but rather just developmental things that are fun and important for kids and their learning. The classes are setup by age level. I will say that my daughter is one of the younger ones in the class, and I do find it harder for her to follow direction compared to the other older kids. There are no makeup classes which is the only bummer, except when it gets rained out. Oh well. I love the little soccer shirt they provide on the first day of class with their name on it, and you can also upgrade to get soccer shorts and socks (so cute) for an extra $20. The locations are spread out across the city, but I love that the one I go to is within 5-6 min drive of me, and the parking at Golden Gate Park is very plentiful at Mother's Meadow each week I go! The coaches, Brian and Jesse, are wonderful, so passionate. They're so amazing with all of the kids, they're very patient, kind, and also help with redirection. They're very enthusiastic, and have lots of energy. What else could you want from a soccer coach?! They also can remember your child's name from week to week, they have great memory! I would highly recommend SF Tots to your child to get them out of the house and learn new things with this fun and engaging soccer class.

My daughter was okay for a while, but she got super scared. She preferred a female instructor. But the guy at the front told us she was not ready and shouldn't be there if she can't work with any teacher. (She actually earned a ribbon that day with a female instructor.) If you know anything about child development, they need to feel safe. Secondly, I simply asked if we could transfer credit. The response was issuing an automatic refund for the credits, deleting my account and canceling the class she was enrolled in. The person answering emails did not even issue a refund for the cancelled class until I realized I couldn't have access. I did NOT approve of any of these things. Their response was "the instructors also noted that she had anxiety." I sent my daughter to swim school because she was anxious in the water, and I wanted her to learn swim safety. When I asked to speak to a manager, the entire staff began ignoring my emails and calls. I will NEVER send or recommend anyone here again. Their service is appalling.

I even drove there and ran into a young women closing up and told her what I wanted to do and please pass on my number to the person in charge. I gave her my number she gave me a new phone for the Club which was correct. I left a message for a return call and never received one. I called the same number to try again Nada! I even called the Pacifica branch to get the correct number and again incorrect information. Sorry to say the gifts will be going elsewhere. There is a lot of kids that are in need and I have a lot of people that love to help but this has been a joke. Last year I asked for a list of 30 names, ages and male or female to get an appropriate gift for the child. After 5 or 6 phone calls I had to finally threaten because they did not give me the list that if I didn't receive the list that night I would be giving him elsewhere. Last minute I received 50 names not 30 which I worked on and was able to fill. Hope they get it together, Terry G

He would text us detailed insightful reports afterwards to let us know what she needs to focus on. And best yet, he makes it fun and a great role model for my daughter. Brandon might be young, but he has been golfing and competing ever since he was little. So he knows what's helpful for a young junior golfer like my daughter. We are lucky to have met him!

This is a very long past due review on Coach Brandon. My son's been playing golf for few years now…read moreand he enjoys it very much. Over the years, my son has had few coaches who worked with him privately beyond classes such as Operation 36, Nike golf camps, First Tee, etc. As parents, this has been our first experience where a coach brought us into light on what exactly are our son's strengths and challenges are in great details. Most private instructions are good that includes a short but detailed explanation on what is working and what is further needed. With Coach Brandon, he goes the extra mile with not just a detailed explanation in person but provides a better understanding for the player and parents with videos and a comprehensive write up of lesson planning, what's working, what needs improvement and how to get there in what timeframe. Coach Brandon is gentle with little humor here and there. He's a great role model to a young player as he's not just a coach but a player himself. Because he's also a player, he understands the ups and downs of playing golf first hand and can translate its relevancy and impact to a student who's eager to learn and improve. Thus far, we've been very impressed with Coach Brandon's skills and approach. As a parent of a son in tween stage, Coach Brandon's been a prefect match to our son.
