“Outstanding Golf Instruction from Ricardo – Highly Recommended As someone who had never played golf before—aside from one round of mini golf over 20 years ago—I wasn’t sure what to expect when I signed up for lessons. From the very first lesson, Ricardo exceeded all expectations. His patience, deep knowledge of the game, and exceptional teaching skills helped me progress from a complete beginner to someone who now understands proper stance, swing fundamentals, and how to make solid contact with the ball. Ricardo has a remarkable ability to break down complex movements into simple, achievable steps. He creates a supportive learning environment that builds confidence, making each lesson both productive and enjoyable. Whether you’re a total novice like I was or an experienced golfer looking to refine your game, I highly recommend Ricardo for players of all levels. You won’t find a more dedicated or skilled golf professional.”

That lesson was pretty helpful, mainly because we really focused on my driver mechanics, which was quite useful. Though I might need to revisit some of the same stuff next time, I appreciated the steady approach. Ricardo's approach definitely highlighted what I should work on to get more consistent with my drive. Still, I’m hopeful that with continued practice, I’ll see further improvement. If you’re into honing specific parts of your golf game, Ricardo’s worth giving a try.

Ricardo’s lesson was quite helpful, especially with the drill to stop early extension and keeping my right knee flexed, those tips really made a difference. We also went over my takeaway to reinforce better habits, which I appreciated. Still, I’m hopeful about checking how I progress on those points and working on my chipping next time. If you're looking for someone who focuses on specific aspects like this, I’d suggest giving Ricardo a try.

The lesson was quite good overall, mainly because Ricardo was really patient and took the time to give useful tips. I never felt rushed, which helped me build some good momentum. Though there's still room to get more consistent with ball contact and control the backswing better, I left feeling like I made some steady progress. If you're looking for a focused approach with a natural teacher, I think Ricardo's worth trying out.

The lesson with Ricardo was quite good, I’d say. His support was genuinely helpful, especially since he was great at pointing me in the right direction. Though, I think advancing more in certain areas could really make a difference, but for now I feel like I have a solid foundation to build on. Still, it’s promising to see how I improved, and I might consider trying him again to continue sharpening my skills.
