Golf instruction has never suffered from a lack of information.
It has suffered from a lack of understanding.
The FMM Academy was built to help golfers understand why great swings work, how different players generate power, and which movement pattern fits them best.
This isn’t a collection of random tips.
It’s a structured educational platform built around one simple goal:
Helping you understand and own your golf swing.
THE FMM JOURNEY
Every golfer follows the same journey. These exact steps are derived from 12 years of coaching, seven swing changes on myself (five successful and two failed), and connecting with nearly 10,000 golfers along the way.
Understand Your Swing Challenge
What’s in the way?
You need to understand this because half the challenge is simply stopping the wrong behaviors.
I cover this in my educational material through what I call Swing Killers—the observable and, more importantly, the non-observable reasons behind faulty movement.
But here’s the trick.
You don’t fix it.
You develop into something better.
Development Route = Pattern Choice
Here’s the thing. And my biggest contribution to the golf world:
There isn’t one golf swing.
There are different swing patterns, each built on its own power protocol and its own set of matching components.
Hogan doesn’t do the same as Nicklaus. Tiger doesn’t do the same as Tommy Fleetwood.
Which pattern fits you is a combination of your natural perceptions of movement and the players who inspire you. The goal isn’t to force yourself into someone else’s swing. The goal is to match you to a swing pattern that allows you to perform naturally.
Take the Pattern Quiz below and discover which Forgotten Master Moves pattern fits you best.

Educate Yourself before the Swing Change
Most coaches guard their knowledge like dragons guarding a pile of gold. At least the ones who know something worth knowing.
I’d rather do the opposite.
Instead of drip-feeding information through endless lessons, I’ve built complete educational courses around the different swing patterns. They’re available through YouTube Memberships or as standalone Skillest Courses ($29/month on YouTube or $99 per course on Skillest).
Because Education First makes the entire swing change journey smoother. When you understand why something works, you stop chasing random fixes and start building a motion that actually belongs to you.
Train with Clear Pattern Steps
Got your pattern? Educated enough? Let’s dive in.
Every educational model follows a crystal-clear step-by-step progression. You always know what comes next and, more importantly, why it comes next.
If you’re the do-it-yourself kind of golfer, this is for you.
If you’d rather have hands-on guidance along the way, I’m there for you too through Skillest.
Clear steps. Clear understanding.
Now it’s grind mode.
Shape Your Trajectory – Own Your Swing
I’m not done once the swing is understood.
True love for ball striking lies beyond the basic motion. It lies in exploring different shot shapes, different trajectories, different clubs, and different ways of solving the game.
Every pattern eventually leads there.
Because that’s when you stop feeling like someone who’s trying to swing correctly…
…and start feeling like a player.
START THE JOURney – FIND YOUR PATTERN
Your inspirations and your subconscious view of the golf swing matter more than anything when it comes to making a lasting swing change. The goal is to find the pattern that fits you best. That said, once you’ve built a solid understanding, it’s absolutely possible to mix and match elements from different patterns.
About 50% of my students find their pattern almost immediately and stick with it. This is most common among lower-handicap players, who already have a reasonably functional swing and simply need a better blueprint.
Around 30% use one pattern to solve a major swing issue before naturally progressing into another. That’s a common path for mid-handicap golfers. Why? Because mid-handicappers often need to solve a significant power issue or movement flaw first. For example, the Trail Power Hitter can be an excellent way to rebuild the downswing, while the Big Arc Swinger later becomes the preferred set of playing feels.
Another 10% are here because they simply love the art of ball striking. They enjoy experimenting, exploring different movements, and understanding how great players create speed. For them, the journey is just as enjoyable as the score.
And then there’s the final 10%. They simply don’t fit. I’m perfectly comfortable saying that. It’s also why I see it as unethical to price the educational material too highly.

REMARKABLE 2 LESSONS RESULTS
Oskar started by studying the educational material for several hours, and then we continued with hands-on coaching. He went from shooting 84 to 74 in ONE WEEK because he was able to eliminate all the garbage from his mind and simply focus on his talent.
Let’s see where this takes us after lesson three. I believe sub-par is only the beginning for this young lad.
And by the way, it truly doesn’t matter whether you’re young or old. The same principles apply to all of us, just as they have for over a century. 🙂
Congrats, Oskar. You have been released from mechanical prison.
The FMM goal – HELPING 10 000 GOLFERS
I’m well on my way to my first 1000 students within FMM. This is just the start. Spread the word if you will 🙂
Also, I now and then appear in media although it’s not my favorite space. Eventually I’ll make use of all the very honorable requests I get from podcasts and such.
With the said – Justin Tang and Jesse Perryman were kind enough to have me on their show, Flaghunters Golf Pod. Quite a humbling experience, since coaches like Mike Malaska, Jim Hardy, Sean Foley (coaching Tiger for a stretch), Bradley Hughes, Pia Nilsson, Gabriel Hjertstedt and many more have frequented the discussion over the years.
A big thank you to Justin and Jesse for the possibilty to spread my vision and philosophy of the golf swing. And by the way – it was the Trail Power Hitter pattern Justin tested with such cool results.
