Home / Winter Programme

Winter is when the work gets done.

No competitions. No card in your hand. Warm, dry, and every ball measured. Come out in March sharper, instead of starting again.

The problem

Most golfers lose the winter.

The clocks go back, the course gets wet, and the clubs go in the garage until March. Then the first few rounds of the new season are spent getting back to where you finished the last one. That is five months gone, every year.

Nothing is at stake

You can change something properly when there is no medal card in your hand. A swing change that costs you shots for three weeks costs you nothing in January.

The session always happens

Indoors, on a mat, under lights. Rain and frost cancel outdoor practice all winter. They do not cancel this.

Change needs repetitions

Nothing sticks in two lessons. Ten sessions across five months, with practice time between them, is what actually moves a pattern.

£780, or two payments of £390.

The same thing bought one lesson at a time comes to £960. The programme price is what it is because the dates are committed up front: they go in when you join, not one at a time as you remember to book them. The programmes that work are the ones already in your calendar in November.

Book your first lesson

Book your first lesson online and we will put the other nine in the diary at that session. Nothing to pay when you book. Spaces are limited, so the dates go to whoever books first.

Honestly

It is not for everyone.

It suits you if

  • You play enough that a bad season annoys you.
  • You have had lessons before and the changes did not hold.
  • You want to know what is actually wrong, rather than collect tips.
  • You can commit to roughly two sessions a month through to March.

It is not for you if

  • You are brand new to golf. Start with a single lesson and we will see where you are.
  • You want one fix before a trip. That is a single lesson, not a programme.
  • Your winter is already full and two sessions a month is not realistic. Half-finished is worse than not starting.

Book your first lesson. We will plan the rest together.

Pick a time for your first session. We will look at your game, set the plan for the winter and put the other nine lessons in the diary. Nothing to pay when you book.
