Private Lessons & Coaches in Lakeland, FL

I train players of all ages and levels, ranging from elementary school to collegiate players. As a former NCAA DI goalkeeper, I prioritize simplistic, practical drills over flashiness. My private sessions begin with a technical and agility warm-up, before gradually increasing to game-realistic drills. Every training is individualized, meeting the unique needs of each player. I strive to give athletes skills which carry beyond a single session, leading to improvement in club/school environments.

"Alexis is fun and engaging. My 12-year-old daughter really enjoyed the lesson and is excited to continue training with her as she improves in the sport she loves.

I bring 19 years of experience playing and learning the game of golf, with a background as a college-level athlete and collegiate golf team player, and extensive competitive experience. During high school, my team qualified for the state championships, and during that same period I competed in high-level matches, including a head-to-head match against Sam Horsfield, giving me early exposure to elite competition and pressure situations. While I have a strong understanding of the technical side of the golf swing, my teaching approach is not overly technical. I’m a feel-based player, and just like I play the game, I teach it—focusing on feel, awareness, and simple keys that translate naturally to the course. I believe great golf comes from understanding what to feel, not being overloaded with mechanics. A major part of my instruction focuses on the mental side of the game, which I believe is often overlooked. I’ve studied golf psychology extensively, including Bob Rotella’s golf psychology work, and I help students develop confidence, commitment, and trust under pressure. I’ve worked with golfers of all skill levels, helping students improve ball-striking, consistency, confidence, and course management. Every lesson is tailored to the individual, emphasizing changes that are easy to understand, repeat, and hold up on the course. My goal is simple: help you play better golf on the course, not just hit good shots on the range. If you’re serious about improving and want coaching that blends experience, feel-based instruction, and a strong mental approach, I’d love to work with you.
