Marius recently received the 2009 Golf Magazine Innovator of the Year award and is now writing monthly articles for the Golf Magazine.

"My teachings are not based on theories. My schools apply a scientific yet practical approach to golf instruction through years of research and teaching top tour professionals. I stress the principals and fundamentals of the short game, the ability to score. These principals are proven skills that are successfully implemented by PGA tour players on a weekly basis."
