"A great golf instructor has the ability to inspire his students with enthusiasm, educate them with solid technical knowledge and encourage them with genuine interest in their well being. John Darling possesses all of these attributes along with tremendous creativity for inventing drills and practice aids to simplify the learning process. I have never met a more knowledgeable and entertaining teacher in my 22 years as a PGA Golf Professional. 

Tom Wischmeyer, San Diego, PGA, Teacher of the Year

"John's given me a broader understanding of the physics of the golf swing and how my body should work through the ball for optimal power and consistency.  Firing my hips properly causes my club head speed to increase which in turn raises my ball speed resulting in greater distance and more consistency, because the faster an object moves the more stable it becomes."

Becky Lucidi, 2002 USGA Women's National Amateur Champion, Two-time All-American, University of Southern California, Big Break V contestant, The Golf Channel and LPGA Tour Member

"I am proud of John and proud to work closely with him.  John's passion for the game and his teaching are unmatched.  He embraces what is difficult by learning everything he can about the subject, but applies it in a very simple, understandable way in his teaching.  As a physical therapist, one of the things that draws me to John is that he is not afraid to challenge the conventional approach to teaching golf.  One of the many things that he shares with me on a regular basis is his desire to have his student's bodies working properly in order to swing the club with efficiency, power and consistency.  In order to further develop this concept in his teaching he has taken the time to become a Body Balance Certified Golf Professional.  By addressing  his student's physical limitations he can speed up the learning process.  This type of teaching is cutting edge... you can always expect that quality from John."
