ANNIKA Academy offers packages for 2012
By Kiel Christianson
ANNIKA Academy's 2012 Golf School packages are some of the most unique in the world of golf. These deals aren't cheap, but the experiences they provide — not to mention the world-class instruction — will not soon be forgotten by any golfer able to spring for the tab.
Located at Orlando's Reunion Resort, the state-of-the-art, boutique Academy is led by Annika Sorenstam's long-time personal coaches. And with the new packages, Annika herself is part of that instructional team.
"The ANNIKA Academy presents a one-of-a-kind opportunity for golfers to learn the game from the teachers who were so dedicated and influential during my career," says Annika, an eight-time LPGA Player of the Year. "The attention to detail we give to all aspects of the game, along with club fitting and fitness, provides a truly unique, holistic approach to instruction."
New to the menu of instructional packages for 2012 is the 'Player's Package.' The program includes three hours of instruction on three consecutive days; 54 holes of golf; and full-service breakfast daily. Groups are limited to no more than eight guests, fostering an intimate guest-to-instructor ratio and environment conducive to learning. Prices start at $1,900 per person.
