Course Objectives

 

This workshop aims to teach the basics of Pilates for golfers   As Bobby Jones once said “your power comes for your core”.  Golf based Pilates will help build a strong core that proves stability and power adding yards to your shots and lowering your score. 

 

Because mind and body work together to provide the many skills needed for golf, an understanding of psychology is important.  This workshop will demonstrate how the human mind forms and processes thoughts and actions that combine to achieve optimum performance
