Short History
Recognized in Montreal,
Canada as one of the top
instructors, Rafael Kalamat
is acknowledged as a drill
and method teaching professional.
Rafael's students list ranks
highly with amateurs as well
as professional golfers.
Having played golf for 23
years, Rafael has developed
a systamatic yet simple
teaching method for golfers
of all levels. However, it
was Rafael's passion for the
game that led him to such
establishments as the
Professional Golf Management
Institute in Toronto, The
Royal Montreal Golf Club,
The Falcon Golf Club, The Golfologist
Academy and The Challenger
Golf Club.
Originally Rafael began his
career in 1995 studying
kinesiology & bio mechanics
for golf and then working at
Dorval golf club under the
supervision of Bruce
Eaves, Verna Glaude, and
Patrick Maltais. Junior
Development programs such as
The Royal Canadian Golfers
Association's Future Links
program was the start
of Rafael's teaching journey. He soon
learned his real interest
was kinesiology, technique,
and the assistance and
benefits of technology for
golf lessons at
Humber College. There he
established golf schools in
Oakville while studying
under P.G.A. Tour
veterans Bob Beauchemin &
Ken Tarling.
