Golf Academy Teaching Professional Katrina Escobedo joins us after spending three years at Stonebridge Country Club in Aurora, Illinois. Katrina has been playing competitive golf her entire life. She grew up playing in Kentucky and Illinois, was a member of her high school golf team, and also was a member of the Division 1 Western Kentucky University Lady Toppers golf team. Katrina has competed in hundreds of golf tournaments throughout her golf career, and plans to continue playing in many more local and national events.Starting out at Cantigny Golf Club in Wheaton, Illinois, Katrina worked at the Youth Links focusing on youth instruction the very first year the program opened to the public. After college, she spent just over two years working at both Ko'olau Golf Club and Oahu Country Club in Hawaii. Katrina also worked at Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith, and 2 nd Swing, where she gained an expertise for custom club fitting and golf equipment selection.Katrina enjoys working with students of all skill level. "My teaching philosophy is to keep instruction simple and focused on the key essentials of golf. I like to begin by listening to the student to help them identify their goals in all areas of the game. Most importantly, a swing built on sound fundamentals (grip, posture, alignment, ball position and pivot action) is a swing that will consistently perform for a lifetime." She feels that her experience in both playing competitively and learning from other knowledgeable instructors has helped her to understand many significant elements of golf.Katrina is in the process of fulfilling her LPGA and PGA educational and membership requirements.
