Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to refine your game, I focus on getting you course-ready from day one. ## Photos and videos - ![I believe golf is for everyone, and I'm passionate about making it accessible.

We use a 'Green to Tee' approach, which means you will be feeling comfortable with real scenarios on the course in just a few sessions, rather than spending weeks just hitting balls at a driving range. My coaching philosophy is simple: golf should be accessible, enjoyable, and rooted in solid body mechanics. I coach at the Karnataka Golf Association (KGA) and Bangalore Golf Club, working with everyone from 3-year-olds to seasoned players. I believe your swing is only as good as your physical foundation. That is why I collaborate with fitness experts to bring traditional Indian training, like Gada and Mugdar, into our sessions. This builds the rotational power, tempo, and balance you need for a consistent, injury-free swing. For those just starting out, my 10-session 'Green to Tee' program is designed to take the intimidation out of the game. We strip away the complex technical jargon and focus on what actually gets you playing a round. I am also deeply passionate about inclusive sports. Through my work with Enable India and the Purple Academy, I use touch and breathwork to teach golf to visually impaired students, proving that sport truly is for everyone. If you are a corporate team looking for a unique off-site activity, I design clinics that use the game to build genuine camaraderie. I want you to walk away from my sessions not just with a better swing, but with a deeper connection to the game and your own movement. ## About Nikki Ponappa I am Nikki, and for me, golf is a spiritual journey of awareness and movement. I bring my love for our land in Kodagu and traditional Indian strength training to help you find your best swing. Let’s get you out on the course.
