Leo’s teaching method is not about any specific swing system but will take what you do naturally and build upon it. When your fundamentals are sound (grip, posture, alignment, ball position, etc.) he will begin the process of improving your golf swing and lowering your scores.
Leo’s ultimate goal is simple: “to provide you with the best personalized golf learning experience.”
