Meet the Instructor

rose sofio golf pro

Hi, I'm Rose Sofio

I love helping golfers get better in a way that actually sticks and makes the game more fun to play.

Golf has been part of my life from the start. I played varsity in high school and went on to compete at the University of Minnesota. After that, I wanted to understand not just how to play, but how people truly improve. I earned my Master’s in Kinesiology with a focus on biomechanics from Auburn University, where I also taught golf as a Graduate Teaching Assistant.

Today, as a Hall of Fame inductee and LPGA Associate, I’ve spent years coaching at the collegiate level and working with golfers of all skill levels.

My approach is simple. I do not just tell you what to fix. I help you understand how your body moves and why it matters, so you can build a swing that feels natural and holds up on the course.

What sets my coaching apart is the balance of high-level expertise and personal attention. My goal is for you to leave each lesson not only swinging better, but knowing exactly why you are.

Let's make you a better golfer today!

Why Work with Rose

Experience That Translates
From teaching university golf courses to coaching collegiate athletes to working one-on-one with beginners, I've seen what helps players improve—and what holds them back.

Education You Can Trust
A Master's degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Biomechanics means I understand why certain movements work. I don't just tell you what to do; I help you understand how your body creates a better swing.

A Player's Perspective
As a former University of Minnesota varsity athlete and four-year high school golfer, I know what it feels like to compete, to struggle, and to break through.

How long does a typical lesson last?
Our lessons typically last one hour, but we offer a variety of lesson lengths and packages to suit your needs. 
 
Do you offer lessons for women and men?
Yes, Rose provides lessons to both women and men. Her unique background and understanding of the human body allows her to customize lessons and technique to harness the most power from your body - whether male or female.
