About Josh

Two decades on the lesson tee. One through line.

I've spent two decades teaching golf to players of every age and level. Beginners, club players, juniors, scratch players, serious competitors. The through line has always been the same. When players love the process, they get better. When they don't, no swing fix lasts.

Good Swings Happen came out of doubling down on the kids. I founded GSH to bring this philosophy specifically to young athletes. A South Bay junior academy and indoor performance hub built around joy, fundamentals, mental game, and development that lasts.

Today, I still teach players of every age, lead Junior Player Development for FlowCode (an industry-leading mental game training platform), write The EDGE Playbook for parents and coaches, and speak to teams, schools, and brands who care about doing this right.

The work

Three lanes. One philosophy.

In their words

Josh's approach is the rare thing in junior golf. He cares about the swing, but he cares more about the kid.
