Golf is for all, and I am here to prove it. My coaching style focuses on movement, touch, and breathwork to make the game accessible to every student, regardless of ability.

A look into a golf clinic for blind and deaf golfers, celebrating Enable India's 25th anniversary. We started with breathwork to center the mind and body before diving into the joy of hitting the ball.

I believe golf is for everyone, and I'm passionate about making it accessible. Here, I'm working with a visually impaired student, using a hands-on approach to help her feel the correct posture and swing path. It's an honor to share this beautiful game.

Coaching visually impaired golf enthusiasts with Enable India is a truly humbling experience. Here, I'm using touch to guide a student's grip, helping them feel the club and its position.

A key part of my adaptive golf coaching is demonstrating posture and movement through physical guidance. This helps students with vision impairment build muscle memory for their swing.

About Golf for Everyone: Inclusive Coaching

When I coach students with vision impairment, we do not rely on visual cues. Instead, I focus on kinesthetic awareness, physically guiding your grip and helping you feel the swing path. We use rhythmic breathing to sync your mind with your body's movement before you strike, building confidence through touch rather than sight.
