When I turned 22 I felt like my game was missing something. My swing felt great and looked great, but there was something wrong because I knew I wasn’t performing my best and it was very frustrating causing me to stop playing competitive golf altogether earlier in the year.

Our initial work guided me to see how consumed with results I had been. Nikki helped me to shift my focus to being more intentional with my process. He taught me some key principles that became translated into practices both on the golf course and in all other areas of my life. As a result I am more honest with my self and others. I have found more joy in the process of practicing and playing golf and bring a much better spirit to my girl friend, sister, and parents. Quite frankly I have grown to be a more caring and loving human being.

Through our work together I finished 12th in a field of over 300 professional golfers., finished first in a one day professional tournament, and finished tied for 36th in the Asian tour qualifying tournament. In that tournament what is particularly noteworthy was my ability to capture an insight after reviewing my pattern in the first couple of rounds. Through my work with Nikki I am able to examine my process more objectively rather than blaming the greens or slow play or those things outside of my control. In so doing I discovered something about my mindset that I had previously not been aware of. I immediately put it into play and shot 8 under par for the next two rounds.

With Nikki I honestly feel like I am gaining more than any coach in the game can teach you about your swing mechanics. He guided me to trust in my gifts and talents. He has helped me to translate mistakes into gifts that further my growth. I have learned the value of being present on the golf course and inside of each of my relationships with others. If you truly believe you can do it, then Nikki can help you achieve it because anything is possible with his guidance. It’s funny because amongst my peers, who range in age from 20 to 50 we say we don’t need to work as hard when having him as your coach. He has helped all of us to enjoy the journey
