Eric Yoo grew up in Orange County, where he attended Cerritos High School before earning a degree in Exercise Biology and Biomechanics from UC Davis. He later served as a Tournament Director and Head Golf Professional at golf clubs throughout Southern California, gaining extensive experience in both golf operations and player development.

Eric is a PGA Class A Member and a Level 3 USGTF Teaching Professional with more than 18 years of coaching experience. He specializes in mental game performance while providing comprehensive instruction in all aspects of golf, including putting, the short game, and the full swing. He also incorporates advanced technology into his teaching, using high-speed video analysis and launch monitor data to help players better understand and improve their performance. His expertise has allowed him to work with many ranked junior golfers and collegiate athletes.

Eric believes that every golfer has a unique swing. His teaching philosophy centers on helping players understand the physics of the golf swing and the laws of ball flight rather than simply trying to create a picture-perfect swing. He emphasizes that while sound mechanics are important, lasting improvement also depends on developing a strong mental game. With this emphasis on improving our relationship with our mind, practices will be efficent and course perfomance "scoring" will improve at all levels.

In addition to private instruction, Eric founded one of the first junior golf programs in the Inland Empire "IEJGA", developing players of all skill levels running junior group classes, seasonal camps, and monthly 9 hole tournaments. He is passionate about growing the game by helping both aspiring competitive golfers and beginners build confidence and develop their skills. Beyond teaching golf, Eric strives to instill valuable life lessons, encouraging junior golfers to overcome challenges, build resilience, and enjoy the game for years to come on and off the course.
