Private Lessons
At Willow Springs, we offer various packages for private lessons. Lessons are by appointment only and we ask that you book them at least two weeks in advance. Lessons are available for purchase separately or as part of a package—buy 4 lessons, get the 5th lesson for free.
Private lessons, group lessons, and clinics are available for all ages and levels of abilities. We provide feedback with notes and video analysis of your golf swing. Students learn the fundamentals through drills, exercises, and positive reinforcement. We recognize that everyone has a different learning style, so we teach using visual, auditory, and kinesthetic devices and aides.

Chuck Sperandeo, as long as I can remember, some sixty years, I have played and been a student of the game of golf. By they age of six, I caddied for my parents, both of whom were club champions. I remain indebted to my father for his lifelong instruction and guidance. I soon became a class “A” caddie allowing me to caddie in local PGA Pro AM tournaments. I also worked part-time during summers at the Pro Shopand for the greens keeper at Forest Park Golf Course. It wasn’t long before I was taking golf lessons from the local pros. While in the USAF, I played on golf teams at Langley AFB, Va. and Eglin AFB, FL. For many years I have instructed in the junior Golf Programs and adult clinics at Forest Park Baltimore, Turf Valley Golf Club and Country Club, Fairway Hills, and Wilde Lake High School Columbia, MD. I custom fitted and made clubs working for Golf Galaxy. I played in all levels of championship competitions at Forest Park Golf Course and Turf Valley Golf and Country Club.
