			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1052" title="3 Day Golf School " src="http://www.ritson-sole.com/wp-content/images/curriculums1.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="273" />Classes are half-days only. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Choose mornings 9:00 am to 12:30 pm, or afternoons from 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm.</strong></p>
<h3>Day 1</h3>
<p>We start off inside the golf school with an introduction and discussion between student and instructor on the student’s level of play, amount of play and goals the student would like to accomplish during his/her school. Then, a program developed by a leading sport psychologist on the mental aspects of golf and a personality profile are done. This helps the student understand the learning process and also reveals the learning style of each student. The results of the personality profile enable the instructor to adapt his/her teaching style for each individual. Once that is completed (approx. 45 minutes), the students are taken out and video taped while hitting balls with a 5 iron. Back inside the viewing room, the instructor reviews the tape with the student to determine which aspects of the full swing they will be working on and why, and how this work will achieve the desired results. Afterward, the students are taken back out to the practice tee and given drills to start them on their course to improvement. The remaining time will be spent working on these drills.</p>
<h3>Day 2</h3>
<p>Students start off on the practice tee with drills from day one. After an hour of work on the full swing, the instructor will change to either pitching and bunker shots, or chipping and putting. Whichever on these is not done on Day 2 will be done on Day 3. All of these shots are video taped and towards the end of the class the students will return to the viewing room to watch the tape. They’ll observe changes which have taken place and they will see which areas of their swing need further work the following day.</p>
<h3>Day 3</h3>
<p>Work begins with the woods, then we move to either chipping and putting, or pitching and bunker play. Final viewing is done at the end of the day, questions are encouraged and a practice plan is discussed.</p>
<p>A personal CD is given to the student to take home for continued practice, and information from our follow-up service via the internet is also provided.<strong><a href="http://www.ritson-sole.com/golf-school-tips/" target="_self"></a></strong></p>

		<description><![CDATA[You get a total of 7 hours of personalized PGA golf instruction covering both long and short game, plus video swing analysis and a take-home CD with custom drills for continued practice. Great 2-day getaway!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1054" title="2 Day Golf School" src="http://www.ritson-sole.com/wp-content/images/curriculums2.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="273" />7.0 hours of instruction at our learning center, 3.5 hours per day. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Choose from either morning, 9am to 12:30 OR afternoon, 1:30 to 5pm.</strong></p>
<h3>Day 1</h3>
<p>We start off inside the golf school with a brief discussion between student and teacher on the student’s level of play, amount of play &amp; practice, and the goals that he/she would like to achieve with their golf. Then we head to the practice tee where the Instructor video tapes your swing (without any directions at this point from the teacher &#8211; we want to see your natural swing).</p>
<p>Next, you&#8217;re taken into the viewing room where your Instructor will provide video analysis. This will determine which aspects of the full swing need improvement, and personal practice drills are prescribed and explained. Afterwards, the student returns to the practice tee and spends about an hour on full swing drills specific to their needs.</p>
<p>Following that, you&#8217;ll begin to work on pitching and bunker shots or chipping and putting (whichever of those is not covered on the first day, will be done the second day).</p>
<p>Some video taping is done for both long &amp; short game work and, towards the end of class, the students return to the viewing room for video analysis. They&#8217;ll observe changes that have taken place, and the Instructor will discuss what needs more work on the following day.</p>
<h3>Day 2</h3>
<p>Students begin working on the practice tee with woods and irons for full swing shots. After approx. one hour, they will change to focus on two aspects of the short game &#8211; if they covered pitch shots and sand play on the first day, they will do chipping &amp; putting today, or vice versa The Instructor gets a little more filming done with both Teacher and Student correctly executing short game shots, and then students are brought inside for final viewing. Questions are encouraged and practice plans are discussed. A personal lesson/drill video tape/CD is given to the student to take home for continued practice, and information on our follow-up services is provided.</p>
<ul>
<li>If the student is joining a 3-day school already in session, then his/her itinerary will match the itinerary of day 1, 2 or 3 as described in our 3-day school curriculum.</li>
<li>You may be requested to arrive 30 minutes before regular class starts, to give us time to video tape your swing and provide analysis, so that you&#8217;re &#8220;up to speed&#8221; when the rest of the class arrives.</li>
<li>If the student is the sole attendee in a 2-day school, he/she has the option of choosing to spend more time on either the long game or the short game. The Instructor will also make helpful suggestions as to the curriculum if the student needs guidance.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1053" title="1 Day Golf School" src="http://www.ritson-sole.com/wp-content/images/curriculums4.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="273" />3.5 hours of instruction at our learning center, either 1:30-5pm OR 9am-12:30pm.</strong></p>

<p>Near the end of the class, the teacher will film you again and you&#8217;ll both return to the viewing room to see what changes have taken place, and to discuss future practice routines. Finally, the Instructor will give the student a take-home CD or video tape, which contains the lesson, drills, and analysis for the golfer&#8217;s future referral.</p>
<ul>
<li>If the student is joining a 3-day school already in session, then his/her itinerary will match the itinerary of day 1, 2 or 3 as described in our 3-day school curriculum.</li>
<li>You may be requested to arrive 30 minutes before regular class starts, to give us time to video tape your swing and provide analysis, so that you&#8217;re ‘up to speed&#8217; when the rest of the class arrives.</li>
<li>If the student is the sole attendee in a 1-day school, he/she may choose the focus of the instruction. Instead of full swing work, the student may choose to work only on an aspect (or two) of the short game, and our Teaching Pro will be happy to comply.</li>

		<description><![CDATA[Our Golf School Alumni curriculum is for graduates of our 3 Day Golf School who have a handicap of 24 or less. In this continuing studies program, our PGA golf instructors work closely with you to identify weaknesses in your swing and develop custom drills to help you reach your improvement goals.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1055" title="Golf School Program for Alumni" src="http://www.ritson-sole.com/wp-content/images/curriculums3.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="273" />The Alumni Curriculum is for graduates of our <a href="http://www.ritson-sole.com/curriculums/3-day-golf-school/">3 Day Golf School</a> only.</strong></p>
<p>This program is available to golfers with a 24 or lower handicap. (Golfers who can break 100 for 18 holes fairly regularly.) Players who don&#8217;t regularly break 100 receive much more benefit from developing their skills at the range with their Instructor. The repetition of correct technique and constant attention of the Teacher is required to take your game to a level that warrants course management work, therefore, we recommend that these players retake the regular 3 day program.</p>
<p><strong>2 HALF-DAYS at our learning center, PLUS a 9-hole on-course lesson.</strong></p>
<p><strong>First Day</strong> (9am-12:30pm) If you&#8217;re joining day 2 of a 3-day school already in progress, you may be requested to arrive 30 minutes before regular class starts (8:30am instead of 9am) to give us time to video tape your swing and provide analysis, so that you&#8217;re &#8220;up to speed&#8221; when the rest of the class arrives. We&#8217;ll advise you in advance if we&#8217;d like you to report at 8:30am. Next you&#8217;ll spend an hour on full swing drills on the practice tee, followed by work on pitching and bunker shots OR chipping and putting. Towards the end of the day, more video analysis will highlight improvements as well as areas of your swing that need more work the following day.</p>
<p><strong>Afternoon of first day</strong> at approx 1:30pm: In a 9-hole, on-course playing lesson, the Instructor helps you with course management, club selection and shot-making strategies.</p>
<p><strong>Second Day</strong> (9am-12:30pm) More work, for about an hour, at the learning center on full swing drills. We then move to pitching and bunker shots OR chipping and putting (whatever was not covered on day 1). Near the end of the day you&#8217;ll join your Teacher inside the classroom for final video viewing, discussion of practice plans, and info on our follow-up services. Student is given a personal CD of the lessons for follow-up practice.</p>
