Combine The BODY and GOLF Technique – for Best Results!

It is very Exciting to Be Adding Fitness Training to my Services.  While continuing to train for my personal fitness goals, I am studying for my TPI Certified and CanProFit Certified so I can deliver to you more comprehensive and impactful golf instruction with the fitness element to enrich your LIFE and Golf Skills.

While I am continuing to develop the dynamic golf/fitness lesson programs for 2013, I am very pleased to be working with some of the top Fitness/Health trainers in Canada.

March 1, 2013 – TPI CERTIFIED

I have just complete my exam for the TPI Certification http://www.mytpi.com

What does this do for you?

I will be adding to my programs a functional mobility and stability assessment which is golf specific to identify possible root causes to any swing flaws or compensations.  How this is beneficial for you, to more accurately identify the causes of your loss of power in the golf swing or directional and consistency issues. If we can identify causes that could be body related, then we can more easily work around this or address this so you can see more efficiency in your game.

What are YOU here Fore?

What are YOU here Fore?

We are all on the journey of life to Experience and Learn… who we become and how we choose to do this is as significant and unique as the snowflakes that fall from the sky… collectively we can make a difference in our own very special way. So much of life I can relate to how we play our golf game…

We are all so very unique and have such diverse paths we choose to take, yet we are walking down the same fairway…

What are YOU here Fore… is just a reminder that we do not all play the sport of golf for the same reasons and when we choose to, how we plan it out is quite different, yet it usually matches our lifestyles …

This is the beauty in golf.. because we are all so different and have so many individual reasons to be sharing the golf course with each other… it always interests me on the often colourful stories that each of my students have in their life and golf games.

My first question to you when I first meet a new students is…

What are YOU HERE FORE…

Rather than assume the obvious, which is to improve your golf game… most answers I find go much more deeply and have very specific experiences which brings you to this place of desired improvement through the search of knowledge…

I will look forward to sharing with you throughout the season of wonderful tales and adventures of both triumphs and challenges that I share with my students…

I know what I am HEAR for… just this! To listen, to learn and to share to make this a better place for all who wish to venture out and experience THIS GAME, a better game…

“Let’s Play Great Golf” is much more than fixing a slice… but it may be just the beginning… the path is long and it can be the most amazing journey! I look forward to sharing it with you 🙂

Golf in the Kingdom

There is a wave of enthusiasm amongst my students… they are keen to get back at it and many are keen enough to have travelled to the south with the warmth and sunshine guiding their way.

I believe it is in the goals we set for ourselves which give us the best direction to enjoy a full life of fun and fulfillment.  It is way to easy to live day by day and discover the time has slipped past us.   As I am a big believer of living in the present, the here and now… it sometimes does not seem compatible with planning and setting goals…

However, if you look at your calendar, the days are there!  When someone says, hey let’s do THIS. on such n such a day.. if you say yes… this is planning, it’s a goal and you write it down to make this happen… then all of a sudden, you are there, in the moment ENJOYING every second of the event…

That’s how I see planning and goal setting… it is a road map to making LIFE HAPPEN with INTENTIONS….

BRILLIANT SUNSET

There are way too many accounts of my past years where I wonder… what the heck, where did that go?

But also on the other hand, some years were so filled with events it is unbelievable to imagine how did I get so lucky to get to do and experience so much…

Life is what you make of it, the first thing is to recognize the DESIRE to DO, then PLAN and then ACT…

My favourite word is YES….

LET’S DO IT and then Live Life to the Fullest…
