Hi Mark, just wanted to say a huge thank you for today.
Everyone took something good away from your tuition.
We had a drink in the bar afterwards and they were all buzzing.
Just the kind of reaction that I love after my sight loss clinics.
Hope to catch up with you soon.
Cheers JK

Hi Mark,
I wanted to sincerely thank you for the past two days we spent together. Both Marco and Manuel were truly happy and felt they learned so much.
Giving Manuel the opportunity to play is something that reminds us exactly why we do this job – it fills us with purpose and energy. You were absolutely fundamental in making this possible, and we are deeply grateful.
Thanks again for your passion, commitment, and for inspiring all of us.
Kind regards,

Hi Mark,
I just wanted to drop an email to say thank you for last Friday. I had a great time and speaking to a few of the members after they only had positive thoughts on it too! I managed to get out on the course after for quite a while and it was extremely impressive!
You mentioned that you may have some bits we can send to the members who attended about some reflection? If you send it to me, I’m more then happy to forward it on to all those that attended.
Once again, thank you for taking the time to put on the event, it was extremely eye-opening. We’d definitely love to do more in the future!
Kind Regards,
Tommy

“Hi Mark
Just a short note to say thank you for delivering a very insightful and thought provoking seminar today to the team at London Golf Club.
Your passion and energy for coaching really is evident in the way you presented today.
“Learning from the edges” (hope I got that correct) is a great phrase to explore movement patterns within golfers and one to lean on more often in lessons.
I hope our paths cross again in August, but in the meantime I hope you have a successful season.
Regards
Paul”

“Mark..It was a pleasure to meet you, and I’m sure that Golf NZ will continue with the great work you started to change lives of people living with disability. I wanted to thank you for the time you spent with GolfNZ in late 2023. I learnt a lot and have documented the key aspects to ensure it contributes to Golf New Zealand’s work in this space moving forward.
All the very best!
Ngā mihi”

“Hi Mark,
Brilliant to hear that you have managed to train as many as 50 PGA coaches, and the PGA of Iceland is embedding the LFTE programme into their Framework. When I had my first visit to Iceland last May, educating their coaching workforce was one of their priorities so its really great to see the progress that has been made.
Thanks to you and Tony for supporting Iceland with this, they are a progressive federation with good people so I know they will really appreciate the support as well.
Sounds like it could make a really good case study in the future too.
Thanks again,
Gavin”
