" The Get Golf Ready classes are so well designed and instructed. After finishing all of the four level classes, the full courses don't see as big anymore. The instructors are very experienced, the golf course is very beautiful and well maintained. Worth every penny of your money, especially the level 3-4, where you can play on the beautiful course. "
