About
The Garcia Golf Academy is now an authorized Lynn Blake Certified Golf Instructor. Communication is foremost to learning, and by asking my students their goals, wants, and needs, I can better service them. I teach a solid foundation, grip, posture, alignment, and the basic laws of geometry. Golf at its core should be fun; my purpose is to increase my students' golfing skills and their enjoyment of the game. I enjoy seeing the look on a students face after they've hit a good shot, won a tournament, or reached a higher level in their game My golf teaching education comes from Gregg Mchatton, PGA (ranked in the top 20 of California's best teachers) and G.S.E.D., instructor of the book "The Golfing Machine" by Homer Kelly. I was also taught by Bruce Hamilton, PGA (ranked in the top 100 best teachers in the USA by Golf Magazine). I am a member of the National Professional Golf Instructors Association (whose sole purpose is to teach golf) and an instructor for National Golf Schools who run over 50 golf schools in America. For more information, please visit my website, and feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

Just had my first lesson with Dave and found him to be very knowledgeable, professional and helpful. His videos of my grip/swing showed me specific areas where I can improve. I'm looking forward applying what he is teaching me.

I learned how to grip the "grip" right. I understand what is a club now. I understand how to hit the ball straight and sounds better when I hit it too. I will continue learning golf with Mr. Dave Garcia. I felt like he really cared and felt like he really helped me. Overall, everything about me improved.

Davie Garcia is a very good golf instructor. His use of technology and hands on teaching is exemplary. Slowly, with Dave's help, I am throwing off the shackles of a 1970's style swing and learning the modern, rotational swing. I couldn't be more pleased.
