KARYN'S PEERS & PLAYERS HAVE THEIR SAY
I first started working with Karyn when we met through the Scottish ladies training squads. I have always enjoyed the way that Karyn has structured her coaching sessions as she makes them challenging and fun. Karyn has always been 100% supportive and committed in my golf game. I have learned so much from Karyn about the game over the years and I would not have been as successfulI without having her by my side as a mentor. Not only am I proud to call her my golf coach but also a lifelong friend.

Karyn is a dedicated and passionate coach that is invested in the individuals development. She is able to develop a rapport and trust with her students that encourages a healthy environment and presents opportunity for the player.
"Karyn's approach to coaching is far broader than most coaches i have come across. She works with players as individuals to develop technical skills but also develop their ability to play, score and importantly, enjoy golf as best they can. This is done whether you are a nervous beginner just trying the game, or a professional golfer.
Karyn has the ability to communicate with all types of player, and person, and to help their understanding while making the process collaborative and fun."

I’ve known Karyn for over 15 years and I still remember those special times when she was a great coach with the Scotland squad. From the cold mornings during practice to the champion winning squads she produced. She championed the success of many of today’s Scottish professionals. Her unique style of making practice both fun and educational still brings a smile to my face today. I, along with many of my peers are so lucky to still call her a friend and colleague.

Karyn is an inspirational individual and the best coach I have ever had a lesson from. She is the only coach that I have walked away from having enjoyed the session and a total understanding of what needed to be improved and why. Karyn has the ability to always get the best out of you and has inspired so many players to go on and achieve fantastic things both on and off the golf course.

I have worked with Karyn for over 10 years. During our time together she has given me an in depth insight to what I want to achieve from my golf game. Her technical knowledge is second to none and every lesson I have had has been fun and engaging. She has helped me mentally with goal setting and instilled in me a strong mental attitude to take to the course. She is a coach who will celebrate your successes and pick you up when the game gets tough. She has invested in me and my goals while being a good friend at the same time. I am thankful to have someone like Karyn guide my career and I look forward to achieving many more goals with Karyn as my coach.
