Erik grew up playing golf from a young age, at the Cochrane Golf Club. Throughout his youth he played many sports, including golf, swimming, hockey and football.

Erik earned a scholarship to the University of Calgary, where he played football at the collegiate level . Competing as a high-performance athlete taught him invaluable lessons in discipline, perseverance, and resilience. He is a proud member of the 2019 Vanier Cup championship team and a graduate of the University of Calgary.

Throughout his six years as a student-athlete, Erik developed a deep understanding of movement efficiency, and performance optimization. His knowledge of kinematic sequencing and body control has seamlessly translated into golf instruction, allowing him to help students improve their swings by understanding the mechanics behind efficient movement.
