About Us

 From professional golfer to golf coaching, Dan DeMuth started his career on the links. As Dan coached successful golfers, he realized that their performance on the golf course was strongly influenced by events off the course and their ability to focus on their game.

This led Dan to found Dan DeMuth’s Better Golf in 1997. His methods work – both on and off the golf course. Over time, Dan expanded his coaching to work with business leaders, executives, students, and leaders. Whether working with golfers or those who have no interest in the game, Dan has built a career coaching people and teams to achieve their goals.

In the fall of 2001, the PGA of America recognized Dan’s achievements with groups of business executives using his coaching techniques to improve their life skills working through his golf and motion workshops.

In 2002, the Minneapolis Star & Tribune wrote an article on the front page of the business section entitled “Golf Whisperer Improving Performance.” In the article, Dan’s clients acknowledged how much of what they learned through the game of golf also applied to their business and life skills. Dan was named the 2005 Minnesota PGA Teacher of the Year. Realizing that he was improving much more than just his client’s golf games, Dan changed both the name and nature of his business to Performance In Motion. He has helped scores of individuals and groups discover their unique abilities and strengths both on the course and in the business marketplace.

 “Over the years, it became clear that success on the golf course often led to success in other areas of life. There is no question that our personal, professional, and even our hobbies are connected to one another. I am proud of the unique experience that helps my clients achieve their goals. Integrating mind and body while addressing all areas of clients’ lives is incredibly powerful. Golf? Hate golf? It doesn’t matter. Together, we can –and will - achieve your goals.”
