ABOUT JOHN
John Souza, PGA
Director of Instruction
Shaker Ridge Country Club
802 Albany-Shaker Road
Albany, NY 12211
​
John was born and raised downstate and moved to the Capital Region after graduating from St. Bonaventure University with a degree in finance.
​
He started in the golf business looking for a weekend job, which turned into the Assistant Professional position at Stadium Golf Club in 2003, which then became the Head Professional Position (2006-2017).
​
It was during his time at Stadium than John began teaching and growing his teaching business, as well as his knowledge of the game.
​
As the love of the game pushed him more toward teaching, he became involved with TPI and NASM to learn more about the body, injury recovery, and corrective exercise as a way to better understand golfers swings and to help more effectively.
​
As of 2026, John is the current Director of Instruction at Shaker Ridge Country Club!
