ABOUT ME

COACH ERIK OF EJS GOLF

THE SCIENCE OF BETTER GOLF

About Me

As the founder and head coach at EJS Golf in Scottsdale, AZ, I’ve dedicated over 25 years to perfecting the art and science of golf instruction. My name is coach Erik Schjolberg, and I’ve made it my mission to ensure that every golfer who steps into my teaching bay experiences measurable improvement from their very first lesson. I’m not just a golf coach—I’m a relentless advocate for my students’ success, committed to turning every swing into an opportunity for growth.


My approach is simple yet powerful: I focus on making you a better striker of the golf ball, utilizing cutting-edge technology like the Trackman 4 Launch Monitor, GRF Analysis, 3D Video, Hackmotion, and more. Each tool I use is selected with one goal in mind—helping you reach your full potential. I don’t believe in the idea that you have to get worse before you get better. Instead, I believe that with the right feedback and the right approach, improvement should be immediate.


Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching a diverse range of golfers—from PGA Tour Players and college athletes to high-level juniors and dedicated amateurs. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt my teaching methods to fit the unique needs of each golfer. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, I guarantee results as long as you’re committed to putting in the work.


At EJS Golf, I don’t just teach golf—I coach golfers that want to be their best. My science-driven, feedback-focused approach ensures that every lesson is a step closer to mastering the game. When you train with me, you’re not just learning how to swing a club; you’re learning how to train effectively, how to change motor patterns efficiently, and how to achieve lasting results. Your success is my success, and I’m here to make sure you become the best golfer you can be.

I utilize video during each lesson to show each student where they start and what progress is made at the end. They are sent a 5-10 minute video lesson along with a detailed practice plan within 24-48 hours of each lesson. This video shows them their swing, reminds them of what to work on until our next lesson, as well as which drills will help them accomplish their goals.

Apostrophe

I've taken multiple private lessons with Erik and he's been by far the best swing coach I have ever worked with. He has the ability to dissect your swing and make small changes for big improvements. What I love most about his lessons is they go far beyond the 1 or 2 hours you're with him. He follows up with videos of how you can improve at home and on the range. The value he provides is absolutely worth the cost of his sessions. I would recommend any golfer at any level who truly wants to get better to go see Erik.”

- Reanol H.

Apostrophe

Erik is the best! and that is not an exaggeration. There has not been a single lesson where I haven't walked out and felt like a far better golfer than before. What can't be praised enough is the effort and dedication that Eric puts into each of his students, as his approach to fixing and improving my golf swing was specific to me. While teaching, Erik takes the extra time to truly dive into what he is trying to convey rather than just telling you, allowing for a better understanding. Beyond the instruction at the course, Erik sends specific drills to you from an app that allows for slow motion replays, letting you break down everything and work on your game at any time. I genuinely mean it when I say that I would recommend Erik to anyone wanting to improve their golf game, as he is not only a top not instructor but also a top notch person who cares about his students.

- Brennan K.

Erik is flat out a great coach and mentor! I highly recommend him! Working from the ground up, my swing is healthier and smooth! I wanted a coach that shared the same main principles as the late Tony Manzoni and Erik hits the mark! Found Erik by listening to the Golf Smarter podcast by Fred Greene and connected with EJS Golf through the Perfect Motion app. Erik is motivated and incredibly gifted at his craft!
