Consultant: Jonathan Wallett

Jon is a certified and qualified Sport Psychology expert, and a member of the British and Swiss PGA. He has directed golf academies in the UK, Switzerland and Australia, and taught or lectured golf in Japan, Australia, UK and Switzerland.

Jon has written teaching articles for different golfing publications and has been the author to a host of different videos, DVDs, coaching workbooks and mental training CDs.

Jon was formerly coached by one of the world's leading coaches, Denis Pugh, from 1992 to 1997, and attributes many of his teaching theories learnt from this outstanding coach.

Jon says "A lot of young players have talent and the possibility to be a champion. But often this talent is like a diamond that's inside a mine - it lies deep within, so the skill of the teacher is to be able to mine this diamond of genius or talent and then constantly refine and polish it so eventually it becomes the finished article".

He adds "Our main job as coaches is to improve performance. At our disposal we use a whole host of tools and therapies, and do not employ a one angled approach - we adjust our coaching to our students, not ask our students to adjust to us".
