PGA Teaching Professional
A former touring professional golfer and fully qualified PGA Teaching Professional, Paige also holds a double degree in Psychology and Sport Coaching and Exercise Science. This unique combination enables her to coach not only the golf swing, but also the person behind it.
Paige’s coaching philosophy is simple: how you think, feel, and lead yourself determines how you perform on the course, in competition, and in life. While technique remains important, confidence under pressure comes from clarity, regulation, routines, and trusting yourself in the moment.
