Baden Schaff, a leading PGA teaching professional was frustrated with the restrictive nature of his business. He could only teach students who lived nearby and was limited to working within his scheduled coaching hours. Meanwhile, Alan Gao, an amateur golfer with a knack for coding was frustrated because he wanted to compare different golf teachers to see which one provided the best lessons for him.

So, Baden and Alan did what any great entrepreneurs do, they joined forces to build a tool that they wanted to use. Baden wanted a great analytical tool to use during his lessons at the golf range, a tool that helped students get more out of each lesson and instructions they could take home with them. Alan wanted a tool that let him send videos of his golf swing to coaches and get an online analysis. So together in 2017, they built Skillest.

Skillest is great for coaches and students. For coaches, Skillest provides a platform to find students from all around the world and take your business global.
