POSTURE: The S-Posture is a swing fault that can be caused by the player creating too much arch in their lower back by sticking their tailbone out too much in the set up position. Can lead to lower back injuries. C-Posture is used to describe a posture that occurs when your shoulders are slumped forward at address and you have a definitive roundness to your lower back.

BALANCE: The ability of the golfer to maintain an erect position throughout the swing.

STABILITY: How stable a golfer is with their swing? Common swing faults that are found with most golfers are usually a sway or a slide. This is defined by too much lateral movement away or towards the target line during the swing.

MOBILITY: How much mobility a player has throughout the golf swing? A player that usually lacks mobility in the golf swing will hang back. The golfer will have a lack of power and a lack of consistency when striking the ball.

POWER: Training for power is training safe ways to move quickly.  Power is dependant on mobility and strength.  Being without either component usually causes inconsistencies.

COORDINATION:  Improving coordination promotes a more desirable swing path.

ENDURANCE: Increasing endurance avoids mental mistakes.

TESTIMONIAL

“I enjoyed the workshop.  I love Golf and also love golf specific workouts.  I think the TPI system is quite unique.  The assessment/evaluation is one of a kind in my estimation.  Besides the evaluation— I think the next most important piece is at least a
follow-up visit or two.  You must be accountable within the next couple of weeks to do the exercises because of the follow-up visit or test from the instructor...that is key to get in the habit of doing the exercises”  —Thomas 

12-STEP ASSESSMENT
Identifies the areas in your body that are restricted in your golf swing and weaknesses from past injuries or lack of use.  Assessment is followed up with exercises to ensure proper form.
