Coaching Philosophy
Telling someone what to do, is not sharing information, it is limiting someone to the knowledge of the instuctor. What if a person’s ability is more than the instuctor knows?
I have been coaching for 16 years, these years have taken me on a journey of self discovery, which has shaped my belief of what I know to be the most effective way to support people to achieve what they want through coaching.
I strive to share the learning experience with the person I am working with. As a golf coach I want to help and develop people to maximise their experience within the game of golf. I have found that for a person to reach what they are capable of, their whole person must be in balance. I work with the person using the vechicle of coaching, to assist the person to be aware of what they can be, by being balanced. By growing a person’s exsisting knowledge and facilitating their awareness, they access the ability to be self sufficent and can self manage themselves and their performance.
I work with a large range of people, from New Zealand’s best amateur players to new golfers and everyone in between. Although the needs of this vast group are different, they all want the same thing ‘SUCCESS’. The coaching style allows the person to be a part of the learning process by sharing the experience, rather than being ‘told what to do’.
Remember nothing is taught, everything is learnt. How can YOU truly learn from someone else’s experience? I’m looking forward to meeting you and sharing your next learning experience. A golf lesson with a difference.
The coaching experience is about asking the student what they want, then exploring how to achieve this together.
History
Once I became a qualifed NZPGA professional (1996) I was involved as assistant manager for Premier Driving range, but found my passion was for teaching golf. This is the point I started on my journey of coaching. In 2000 I went to J.K.'s World of Golf and spent eight years building up to the position of Director of Coaching. It was here that I got invloved with elite player development coaching. I was a High Performance Coach for NZ Womens golf, then a High Performance Coach for NZ Golf. During this time I also was apart of the Carded Coach program run by the New Zealand Academy of Sport. I spent four years in the carded program, which exposed me to a wealth of information, which has shaped and guided me to the path of coaching I use and explore today. In December 2008 (still present) I moved to Takapuna Public as Director of Coaching. This provided me the opportunity to start Coaches Inc and develop the pathway of coaching.

What will Arron offer you
My point of difference is that I will not 'tell' you how to play golf. I will work with to support you as a whole person, by coaching you to find the balance within yourself. As I am mindful that play to ones ability is more than just the golf swing, it is a number of skills.

Referral Reward System
Referral business is by far the most important way to connect with new clients. Its extremely important to me that I acknowledge and thank those who recommend my services.
