About Christoff

Christoff Els is a native South African and PGA Class A Professional with over 12,000 hours of teaching experience. He has an extensive background in Sport Science and human motor skills, which allows him to bring a unique combination of teaching and playing skills to his coaching platform.

In 2011, Christoff was named as one of the top college players with honorary colors at the University of Pretoria, representing South Africa in the World University Championship.

After college, Christoff found his true passion in teaching and coaching, mentoring with world renown instructors in South Africa, The United Kingdom, and The United States. Christoff has worked with a former DP World Tour winner and currently works with various Tour Professionals.

He enjoys working with all skill levels and golfers who are passionate about the game and have an open mind to change. No golfer is the same and Christoff is excited to help create long lasting improvement to each student’s game. It is so important for his students to know exactly ‘WHAT’ they are working on and ‘WHY’. As soon as they understand that, the ‘HOW’ gets easier.
