I managed the girls' varsity tennis team for two years in high school, preparing them for matches and major competitions alongside the head coach. As a player, I competed in intense district and state-level matches on the boys' varsity team. Additionally, I recruited new members for both teams over the summer and dedicated several hours each week to match play.

With over 25 years of golf experience, a background as a former NCAA athlete, and years of coaching competitive players, I help golfers do more than just swing better-I help them score lower. We’ll focus on the areas that actually move the needle: ball striking, short game, course management, and decision-making under pressure. Dropping strokes isn’t about perfect swings-it’s about making better decisions and executing with confidence. Whether you want to bomb it off the tee, attack pins with confidence, or become deadly inside 10 feet, I’ll help you build a game that holds up on the course—not just on the range. Train like a golfer. Think like a scorer. Go low.

"Felipe is so skilled and a great coach. He teaches in a very unique and effective way. We are so glad we found him.

I’m Goms . My specialty is turning “Wait, what do I do?” into “Oh wow, that actually went forward.” I teach brand new golfers because that’s where the best stories happen through the chaos of their first swings. The kids, the adults, and the brave souls who show up holding the club upside down. I live for the moment your swing finally behaves and we both look at each other like, “Did you see that?” If you’re curious about golf and ready to learn, mess up, and accidentally hit a perfect shot, I’m your coach. Worst case, we laugh. Best case, you crush it. Win-Win situation. Let’s gogoGolf !

"Very helpful and patient.

Pop. Rock. R&B. Jazz. Musical Theatre. And every song on the request list at one of the hottest piano bars in Los Angeles. I'm David Jayden Anthony — and before I tell you about my degrees, let me tell you about where I honed my skills as a commercial music performer: Tramp Stamp Granny's, Darren Criss' legendary North Hollywood piano bar. Every genre. Any song. Any key. On demand. That's the kind of real-world musical flexibility I bring into every lesson. My credentials: a Bachelor's in Songwriting & Music Production from Berklee College of Music (studying under Grammy Award-winning artists in lyric writing, composition, production, and mixing), and a Master's in Musical Theatre Writing from Berklee's NYC campus — where I studied with Broadway legends Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Flaherty, Adam Gwon, and Michael Starobin. Before Orange County School of the Arts had a commercial music program, I built one from scratch — teaching Pop, Rock, Jazz, and R&B, writing original arrangements, and directing concerts for audiences of 2,000+. My students call me 'The Auto-Mechanic of the Voice' — because I diagnose fast and fix faster. I make abstract vocal concepts tangible. I help you understand text and storytelling at a level that transforms your performances — not just your technique. Whether you're a pop singer pushing too hard, a musical theatre performer hunting for the perfect audition song, or a songwriter who wants to finally record something extraordinary, I will move you faster than you thought possible. YES — you can use acting and storytelling technique to create brilliant pop and commercial music performances. That's not a theory. That's what I teach, every session. Rapid results. Real technique. Commercial music first, Broadway when you need it. SuperCoach — Top 3% on TeachMe.to. 5.0 rating. 30 years of teaching, performing, music-directing, and writing. Let's get to work.

"The lesson was quite thorough, with David exploring many techniques, and I appreciated how invested he was in helping me find my voice and achieve a breakthrough. Still, I think continuing to balance and control my own voice will be important moving forward. I’ll definitely look to return for the next lesson, since that lesson really highlighted his attention to detail and genuine commitment.
