PGA Golf Professional and TPI Certified Instructor

Jeremy Cabalka was born and raised in Middleton, Wisconsin, and graduated from the Professional Golf Management program at Mississippi State University in December of 2002. After graduation, he moved to Arizona to pursue his career in golf, working at the prestigious Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, where he was elected into membership as a PGA Class A Professional in 2005.


Now serving as the General Manager at Pleasant View Golf Course, Jeremy brings over 25 years of instructional experience to his students. During the winter months, he trades fairways for snow as a Level III certified snowboard instructor and Education Staff Member with the American Association of Snowboard Instructors, continuing his commitment to helping others grow through movement and sport.


Throughout his teaching career, Jeremy has been fortunate to work with and learn from some of the best in the business. One of his most formative experiences was his time with the Kostis/McCord Learning Center (now the Grayhawk Learning Center), where he helped lead junior and women's programs. Since returning to Wisconsin, Jeremy has fully embraced TPI’s philosophy of individualized swing efficiency:


“We don’t believe there is one way to swing a club; we believe there are an infinite number of ways to swing a club. But we do believe that there is one efficient way for everyone to swing a club, and it is based on what they can physically do.”


Jeremy is a passionate, student-focused instructor who works with players of all skill levels—from beginners to advanced competitive golfers. His approach blends real-world experience with industry-leading education and technology.

  • What is TPI?

    What is TPI?

    TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. For over twenty years, TPI has gathered the world’s largest technical database of the game’s top Tour professionals as well as every-day golfers. TPI collects 3D motion capture, force, pressure, launch monitor, strength, power, and movement data on every player that visits the TPI campus. Using this data, TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a golf club in the most efficient way possible. Conversely, TPI determined how physical limitations in a player’s body can adversely affect the golf swing and potentially lead to injury. This relationship is what TPI calls The Body-Swing Connection and is the foundation of all professional Certification courses offered by TPI.


    TPI’s Mission

    TPI’s mission is to educate golfers and industry professionals on the Body-Swing Connection through its one of a kind TPI Certified educational program.


    TPI’s Philosophy

    TPI believes that golfers should match their swing style to their movement capabilities. The philosophy is simple:


    There are an infinite number of ways to swing a golf club. However, there is one most-efficient way for each player to swing a club and it is based on what they can physically do.


    TPI’s Assessment Screen

    If you don’t assess, it’s just a guess.


    To achieve an efficient swing, a golfer must first be screened. A proper screen involves an assessment of swing mechanics, biomechanics, physical fitness, movement quality, current health, and injury history.


    The TPI movement screen is a simple test to quickly evaluate a player’s physical capabilities. The results of that assessment are used to determine how technical elements of the player’s swing could be related to what their body can or cannot do. Once this screen is finished, the results are used to create a plan unique for that golfer. The plan may include fitness training, physical therapy and treatment, coaching of swing mechanics and biomechanics, nutrition, mental strategy or all of the above.
