"Let us help you improve the most important part of your golf game:
YOUR BODY!"

Are you looking for improvement in your golf game that hours of practice and new clubs have not provided?

 

Do you want to play more consistent, powerful, and pain-free golf?

Golf Facts:


wFor every physical limitation a golfer possesses, their chance of performing a mechanically sound golf swing decreases.
w
Amateurs, due to improper use of the body, create greater forces and torque (compensatory moves) than professionals, but create one-third less clubhead speed, creating a shorter distance off the tee.
w
Each time a golfer performs an exercise promoting a swing flaw, the body's neuromuscular system is altered, and the flaw becomes habit.
w
Appropriate sequencing of the hips, torso, arms, and clubhead are the keys to creating POWER & CONSISTENCY, resulting in lower scores!
 

The Front 9


Our certified Golf Performance Specialist will determine your personal golf needs through the following:

wGolfBody Screen:  30 minute, 40 point screen of the golf swing at 4 key stages:

  • Address
  • Top of Backswing
  • Impact
  • Finish

This information is condensed into a GolfBody Index (total number of compensatory factors) and Power Index.

w Musculoskeletal Screen:  60 minute session identifying the causes of the information gathered in the GolfBody Screen.  Chipping, putting, and measurement of swing speed are also analyzed.

After the completion of the 2 screens, each golfer will have created a Golf Profile, and will be given an individualized home exercise program specifically addressing their problem areas.

A Re-Evaluation will be performed 4 weeks later to check progress and provide the opportunity to make any necessary changes to ensure success!
 

The Back 9

Golf-specific, one-on-one training, where golfers
 "Train to Engrain"

w40 minute one-on-one sessions with our Certified GolfPerformance Specialist.
wEach session is individually designed based on the golfer's personal goals and results
          from the Front 9 Screens.
wSessions may include focus on:  flexibility, strength, balance, power, tempo,
          coordination, kinetic sequencing, postural stability, and weight transfer.
wEvery golfer will have the opportunity to work with various fitness and golf-specific
          training equipment, including an indoor hitting net to help 'feel' the improvement!
