RAIN OUTS
*Classes cancelled due to weather will be made up following our summer season in August/September. Should you not be able to attend one of our make-up dates, you will receive golf course credit to be used towards a future program. Cancellation decisions will be made an hour prior to the class start time via an email sent to participants.
LEVELS
**Please note classes beginning with “1” are level 1, classes beginning with “2” are level 2 in our progression based programming. Confirm your class/dates/times before registering.
Adult Development
Level 1
This class is all about helping you get comfortable being uncomfortable. One of the things that make golf one of the most difficult games to learn and excel at is that we are constantly on display. We typically play with friends or family, and that fear of a poor result paralyzes and inhibits our ability to learn and improve. Once we have some understanding of what we are TRYING to do, we can give our brain and our body a chance to execute it.
Think about when you learned to drive a car. This process started in a classroom understanding the rules of the road (golf course). Then moved into a behind the wheel portion with a certified instructor (our professionals). Finishing with flying down the highway (that perfect effortless swing). The process of understanding golf and the golf swing will take a similar approach. Putting is where we learn the variables which we control, and the ones we don’t, that affect where the ball goes. Chipping, where we introduce the ball in flight, and full swings, where we get the train barreling down the tracks.
Come and enjoy the process of understanding the game and the golf swing in a non-intimidating, compassionate environment.
Level 2
Still picturing that shot you hit on the range in level 1 and you’re hungry for more?
Take the mindset of “lifelong learner” and sign up for this class. Once you enjoy the process of understanding, the results will flow. This class dives deeper into the basics covered in level 1. Participation in level 1 prior to participating in level 2 is encouraged but not required. Information taught in level 1 will be referenced during this class.

Adult/Junior
Ages 8-15 (All Levels)
One of our most popular classes of the past is returning to VLGC (formerly Parent/Child)! Come learn the fundamentals alongside your junior. Whether it’s children, grandchildren, nieces of nephews, this is a family program!
Progress and learning can accelerate when you have a partner to turn to with questions. When you are both looking for and are beginning to understand the same elements of the golf swing, we believe that learning can speed up and retention can be achieved faster. Also for a lot of us, spending time together is a big reason we play!
We hear it all the time, “I want to help my junior get better but I don’t know how to help!” Learn the body movements that create your own effortless and efficient golf swing throughout this course. Come with an open and curious mind and discover talking points and drills to help you and your junior start down the road of continuous improvement.
PLEASE NOTE! You must register at least two students for this class (1 adult and 1 junior). You may register as many combinations of adults and juniors as you would like.
