Golf & mental training trip Spain.

The two professionals combine technique training with strategy tips and mental coaching for stress-free, successful golfing with lots of fun!
Spanish Atlantic coast: golf and more on the Costa de la Luz
The Costa de la Luz ("Coast of Light") is located in the province of Cadiz in the south of Andalusia. It stretches for around 200 kilometers along the Atlantic Ocean between Gibraltar and the border with Portugal. The beaches are known above all for their very fine sand and almost endless dunes. The coast is therefore particularly popular with surfers, water sports enthusiasts and holidaymakers.
The region is characterized by a mild climate all year round, with many Central Europeans spending their winters in the area, especially from autumn to spring. At our travel time in October, temperatures are usually above 20 degrees. And there is plenty to discover, for example on our golf-free day. Cadiz and Jerez de la Frontera are only about an hour's drive from the resort. Or how about a visit to a sherry bodega with a tasting? Or a day at the beach? The Atlantic coast is around 30 minutes away by car. Or another round of golf on one of the numerous golf courses in the area?
It's a little further to the Spanish Mediterranean coast, for example to the famous British enclave of Gibraltar with its Monkey Rock (approx. 75 minutes by car) or to glamorous Marbella with its stores and restaurants around the exclusive marina of Puerto Banus (approx. 90 minutes by car). A little further inland is the typical Andalusian town of Ronda with its famous bridge over a deep gorge (approx. 120 minutes by car).

Who is Lois Macintosh?
Lois Macintosh has over 35 years of experience in golf. Growing up on a golf course where her father was head greenkeeper, she has developed a deep passion for the sport and has internalized the intricacies of the game. Her focus is on personalized training methods that combine technique, strategy and game tactics. She helps golfers of all levels to reach their full potential. Lois teaches not only sporting but also personal development. Her philosophy: "If you learn to embrace mistakes, you'll develop the persistence to never give up."
Who is Mike Werder?
Mike Werder, married and father of three children, brings a unique perspective to mental training as a psychologist specializing in neuroscience. His experience from top-class sport and his innovative methods, such as facial expression resonance and emTrace, help golfers to overcome mental blocks, maintain emotional balance and optimize performance through targeted mental strategies. Mike is an expert in building mental strength and resilience and applying these directly on the golf course.
How will our holistic coaching help you on your journey?
