What is Pilates for Golf?

It is particularly effective for golfers developing core strength through out the body. By conditioning the core muscles at every joint stability, flexibility, and smooth continuous motions gives golf swings, more accuracy, power and speed.

Pilates enhances symmetry of the muscles. Avoiding injuries.

Pilates is a lifelong exercise program bringing the mind to focus, improving posture, programming movement from the ground up and from the center of the body outward.

Testimonials and Success Stories

Charlene Jetter 2/08

Charlene came to me with obvious prior Pilates training. She knew the moves but the specific Pilates training she needed to correct posture alignment while moving had not been addressed. Once she got better postural alignment and correct movement patterns her success was apparent in video analysis of her swing. Charlene graciously shared her before and after videos with me. With your added specific golf expertise Charlene left Maui last season feeling good with some of her greatest golf scores.

Jan Tompkins 11/07 – 5/08

Jan came to me with extreme hip pain and shoulder discomfort. She had considered hip replacement and had stopped playing her beloved sport of golf. The main focus our first season together was correcting movement patterns and strengthening weak core muscles at the hip and shoulder joints. This relieved her hip and shoulder pain so she could return to her golf game. We accomplished our goal so she could golf pain free. She returned the next season still playing golf with no pain but wanting to play better. We worked on the correct firing of muscles needed for golf. The rest is history. Spring of 2008 Jan left Maui knowing she had won the Wailea Wahines low net Club Championship.

William “Bill” Klapp

Bill came to me concerned about his hip stabilization. I suggested to Bill to take my Friday 5pm Golf Pilates Group class. After taking five group classes specifically designed to use movements during golf, Bill’s next golf score was 82. This beat his previous best by nine strokes. He is still improving his accuracy and lowering his index while taking Golf Pilates Group classes once a week.
