Aaron has joined EMGA’s team of coaches as Head of Junior Instruction. Monday to Friday Aaron visits schools across the midlands getting children into golf. At the weekends Aaron coaches the EMGA junior programme at Morley Hayes to over 50 juniors and growing and believes that East Midlands Golf Academy will be the number 1 for Junior Golf in the Midlands.

Aaron’s main beliefs are that anyone can improve at golf whether they be 8 or 80 and believes that clear communication between the student and the teacher is the key area to improve performance. Aaron is a qualified NLP practitioner which means he has extensive tools on communication that will enable you to learn better and help you shoot lower scores. Video analysis is available at no extra cost in all Aarons one to one lessons and believes this can give the student a clearer understanding of what they are both working on at a certain time.

Stewart has learned and practiced the ability to use computer analysis in order to help you with a greater understanding of the swing process and will offer feedback and support to further your game, at no extra cost. His motivation for teaching comes from his commitment to the game and Stewart is eager to make a difference to your game, and is looking forward to a new challenge in his career here with us at Morley Hayes.
