Private Lessons & Coaches in Apollo Beach, FL

I played professional golf for several years, achieving top three finishes in multiple tournaments across Florida. I qualified past the first stage for both the Web.com and European Tour/Challenge Tour Q-Schools. My foundation in the sport was built at the David Leadbetter Golf Academy in Orlando, where I honed my skills and passion for the game.

With a +1.9 handicap and a strong background in collegiate golf, I placed 3rd in the MDJUCO Championship and graduated from the Golf Academy of America. I am a certified instructor with Go Gator Golf, dedicated to helping players improve their skills and achieve their goals on the course. My passion for golf and commitment to instruction drive me to support golfers of all levels in reaching their full potential.

My name is Ethan Williams I’ve been playing competitive golf for over six years, and it’s been a journey filled with growth, grit, and some incredible milestones. In high school, I competed in three state championships and played in numerous AJGA tournaments, where I earned a few major wins that helped shape my competitive edge. Now, as a collegiate golfer, I bring that same drive and experience to my coaching. My goal is to help players of all levels elevate their game—whether you’re just starting out or looking to sharpen your tournament performance. I coach with a focus on fundamentals, course strategy, and the mental side of golf, because I know firsthand how important those elements are to success. I also use a full Swing Kit in my coaching sessions, which gives us access to real-time data like swing speed, launch angle, ball flight, and more. It’s a game-changer for tracking progress and making smart, data-driven improvements. If you’re ready to take your game to the next level, I’d love to help you get there.

My Philosophy: Simple Swings = Consistent Swings Golf is already hard enough—why make it harder by adding extra moving parts? The fewer variables in your swing, the easier it is to repeat. And repeatability is the name of the game. In fact, “golf” should be Scottish for “repeat”… though we all know it’s probably more like creative insanity. That’s why I use video analysis to capture those sneaky extra movements that creep in and mess with your consistency. When you can see what’s holding you back, it becomes way easier to fix. Curious what your swing’s really doing when you’re not looking? Book a session and find out—your scorecard will thank you.

"Thank you Brandon. This was way less stressful than I expected lol

With a passion for music that spans decades, I began my journey in piano teaching in 2006, conducting private and group sessions. My musical voyage began even earlier during my high school days at Smithfield High School in VA, where my exceptional talents were recognized by my choir director, leading me to pursue higher education at Shenandoah University Conservatory. There, I earned my BM and MM degrees in Piano Performance with a minor in organ, shaping my profound understanding of classical music. Over the years, I've honed my skills in chamber music and music theatre, amassing 26 years of experience accompanying and coaching singers, as well as a decade in ballet dance accompaniment. Notably, I had the privilege of performing at Carnegie Hall in 2014 and continue to enrich my musical journey by collaborating with local bands and performing at prestigious events.

From concert halls to your home, I bring 12 years of professional piano experience. As a former professional pianist, my passion is nurturing musical talent in students of all levels. I tailor my teaching to individual needs, fostering both technical skill and artistic expression.

My passion for piano transcends mere performance – it's about igniting that same love in others. As my main instrument is percussion, I started on piano 10 years ago and have been on and off for the past 6 years. With this experience and my other music teaching endeavours, I guide students of all levels, fostering their musicality through engaging and personalized instruction.

I'm a skilled pianist, composer, and teacher with over 20 years of experience in jazz, blues, ragtime, and classical piano.

I specialize in helping students of all ages and levels not just play the piano, but truly understand the music—building lasting confidence, solid technique, and expressive freedom.   I'm not just a pianist, but a versatile musician.

Around the same time, I studied jazz and classical theory, composition, and arranging while earning college credits at Oakland Community College.   After moving to Florida, I began performing professionally at age 26, booking regular gigs at restaurants and venues throughout the local area. Since then, I’ve composed over 30 original works in jazz, classical, and ragtime styles. My musical interests have also grown to include modern production, using the Yamaha MOXF8 and Montage to explore synth-based sounds, ambient textures, and chill lounge music—perfect for students drawn to both traditional and contemporary approaches.   My teaching style is student-centered, encouraging, and highly adaptable.
