Staying fit is as important as honing the perfect swing. The experts at National Capital Fitness will get you into a program tailor made for you. Ask us today how we can assist you in achieving your goals on the links and for your personal well being.

There are two components to playing golf. Mechanics (20%) and mental (80%). Graham's years as a successful, competitive tournament player have provided him with a keen insight into both of these disciplines.

If you are stuck and can't take your game to the next level, you might want to think of investing some of your practice time in an individually designed coaching program. Graham will be glad to sit down with you to discuss your needs and availability. All coaching programs include a fitness evaluation and consultation with a personal trainer from National Capital Fitness.

Associate Teaching Pro, Frédéric Jacquet, CPGA

Frédéric Jacquet is a 25 years old professional golfer and a member of the CPGA (Canadian Professional Golfers Association). He was born and spent most of his life in Paris, France, where he developed his love of golf.

After competing in various junior tournaments throughout Europe, Frederic moved to Canada with his family when he was 14 years old and eventually became a professional golfer. Frederic has a special interest in improving his basic game and wishes to share his knowledge with his students.

Frederic will offer advice in both improving your game and developing and achieving your goals within the sport. His teaching method not only involves attaining a repetitive swing, but also aims to improve one's short game, which is the easiest and fastest way to improve your score. Through strong technique gained in practice, anyone can be confident in their short game; it is not only reserved for top athletes.

Frédéric has a French Masters Diploma in economics with a specialisation in athletics at Paris 9 - Dauphine, and a bachelors degree in management from Ottawa University.
