Here is just one of the many reviews Paul has received.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
MICHAEL DA SILVA, CLIENT
I started lessons with Paul after recovering from a broken arm, needing to rebuild my swing and strengthen my arm.
The technology of the CoachNow app was brilliant allowing me to view my swing, keep abreast of all the small changes, clearly see my progress and even enjoy share the benefits of the video clips with friends.
The personal attention to detail from Paul helped my understanding of the changes he brought about to enable me to improve. This all created a better and more detailed analysis of my swing which took me from a struggling 16 to a pretty decent 9 handicap.
I would strongly recommend Paul and Pure Motion Golf Academy to anyone wanting to improve and understand the dynamics behind their swing. He enabled me to achieve my aim.

Matthew Kilfoil

Matthew learned his golf at Durbanville Golf Club aged just seven and although playing several other sports whilst at Fairmont High School, golf remained his passion. Matthew is a member of the South African PGA. He has had a positive impact on the Pure Motion Coaching Team and on the many young and more mature players he has taken under his wing.

Here is just one review Matthew received from a happy parent.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
CARLO SWANEPOEL, STUDENT’S PARENT
My son, Christian, started golf lessons with Matthew in 2020 aged 6 when he was mishitting the ball, usually with quite a fade. Since then his technique has improved to the extent that he is now hitting his irons with a slight draw which was what we intended. For a now 7 year old he also drives the ball pretty well. His accuracy has improved dramatically by working on his stance and has improved his ability to control his shot.
Matthew as a coach is incredibly patient, softly spoken and has great knowledge of golf. He challenges by creating ‘games’ and tasks which motivate Christian to improve. More recently, he has taken Christian out on the course which has been equally motivating and fun.
His coaching experience and ability ensures that Matthew keeps lessons interesting. This has not only really improved Christian’s game, but has also nurtured a love for the sport.
We have been very happy to refer Matthew to other parents who are just as happy as we have been.
