COACHING PHILOSOPHY - GOLF FOR PERFORMANCE, MINDSET & LIFE
At the heart of Tamie’s coaching philosophy is the belief that golf is more than just a game — it’s a vehicle for personal growth, resilience and connection. As a Certified PGA Professional, former tour player and background in psychology, Tamie blends technical golf instruction with mindset coaching to help every golfer reach their full potential. Her holistic approach supports players in building confidence, improving focus, and enjoying the game more — whether they’re striving to lower their handicap, break 80 or 100, or simply feel more in control on the course.
Tamie meets each golfer where they’re at — adapting her coaching style to support men, women, and junior players across all skill levels. Every session is an opportunity to grow, not just as a golfer, but as a person.
“I came to golf coaching driven by a profound passion for the sport and a desire to share its transformative power with others. The rewarding aspect of coaching is witnessing the growth and development of individuals and enjoying contributing to the holistic development of my students.”
— Tamie Durdin
