BEGINNERS INTRO TO GOLF PROGRAM
Learning golf should be fun and rewarding.
Beginner golfers thrive with an instructor who patiently breaks down techniques step-by-step, ensuring a solid foundation for understanding, repetition, and ongoing development.
Starting on the green and progressing back to the tee builds confidence while achieving noticeable improvements. This structured approach accelerates understanding of the skills needed for a full swing, similar to advancing through levels of education.

The Beginners Program is also available for 2 Students , also as a package of 4 lessons of 70-minute duration, and costs $480.
Golf is a challenging game that demands patience, practice, and realistic expectations. The first lessons are critical to learning effectively and building confidence through successful, repeatable strokes, setting the stage for meaningful progress and enjoyment.
Since June 2020, the Beginners Intro to Golf Program has taught over 350 students, making up 42% of Lortan Golf’s new learners. Of these, 64% continued with the Follow-up Development package, designed to transition beginners onto the course.
Michael Lortan is dedicated to teaching golf in the simplest, most effective way to help new players enjoy and succeed in the game.
Let’s Get Your Golf Going!
The Beginner Golf Teaching Program
Start small. Finish strong.
The fundamentals of grip, posture, ball position and aim are the foundation of every stroke. Learning the fundamentals and then applying them as part of the pre-shot routine to the simplest and smallest stroke – putting - enables the new golfer to begin confidently.
Adapting what was learned with putting, the golfer will then learn to chip. Following that, the teaching of the pitching stroke will introduce the fundamental movements that make up the full swing.
By the end of the fourth lesson, the golfer will be hitting shots on the range with ½ to ¾ swings.
Need Golf Clubs?
We’ve got you covered.
For students that have yet to acquire clubs, the necessary Men's or Ladies clubs will be provided for use during the lessons at no extra charge.
For practice outside of lessons, it will be important to own your own set of clubs. Michael is happy to help with general suggestions and sellers for used or new clubs.
Student access to golf information guides to supplement the skills learned.
The swing is not the only golf skill the new golfer will be required to learn.
The beginner will need to know about what features make up a golf course, what clubs to use, what other equipment needed, and an overall familiarity of golf terminology.
Playing requires an understanding of the rules that govern play, and the etiquette that demonstrates respect for other golfers. When playing in a group, learn how the handicapping system helps lesser skilled golfers to compete against more advanced players. There’s even a guide to help the new golfer to navigate the first few rounds until he feels comfortable.
All these skills are available to the new golfer as part of the beginners program.
Lortan Golf Students may access documents that cover all these aspects and can be downloaded at no charge, with a password. CLICK HERE if you are a beginner student and would like to request a password.

“I wholeheartedly recommend Lortan Golf as we’ve had a great experience working with Michael. I was looking for an activity I could enjoy with the kids and we signed up for a group class with Michael. We are beginners to golf and he has made this a truly enjoyable experience for all of us. Michael is extremely knowledgeable, provides great insight and feedback, and is absolutely great with the kids. We find ourselves talking about golf all the time, and are always looking forward to our weekend lessons”

“My first golf lesson with Michael was a fun and enjoyable experience. He takes the time to make sure you understand the concept and how it can affect your game before moving onto the next bit. He is methodical in his teaching and truly enjoys what he does. I'm looking forward to my next lesson with Michael.”
— Jason H
“He really wants you to learn. He breaks down the techniques step by step so that you can learn and understand. Always goes that extra mile (more like extra 10 miles). Such a gentleman, amazing personality, professionalism and teacher skills. I was a zero in golf and in just 3 classes I am at a point where I would’ve never imagined I could reach in such a short time.”
