CENTERED GOLF
 Centered Golf is a program designed
specifically for golfers of all skill levels.
Substantially improve your game by learning positive
thinking and physical fitness exercises tailored for golf
from the self defence styles of Aikido and Tai Chi. These
easy-to-do exercises build you up as a golfer while
improving your overall balance, health and
fitness.
Often when people pickup a golf club, they forget
movement basics and whale away at the ball. Aikido and Tai Chi
movements allow your muscles to be more relaxed and reveal how
your body works best without stress or tension.
Centered Golf helps you
to...
• Improve your balance & power
• Quiet your mind & Up-grade your mental
game
• Increase your relaxation, flexibility and range of
motion
• Refine your touch for putting and the short
game
• Enhance your enjoyment and appreciation of the
game
MindBody
Coordination
In golf, each side of the body is asked to do different
tasks. By applying martial arts that emphasize balance and ease
you learn how to address each shot with a renewed sense of calm
and relaxation.
The better you can maintain your balance during the
high-speed movement of the downswing, the better your golf.
Balance also helps by providing elasticity to your muscles.
While overall strength is an asset, the key is to turn strength
into speed while staying in balance.
Tiger Woods has practiced Tai Chi exercises since he was
four years old. And martial arts are increasingly being used by
both men (Phil Mickelson) and women (Annika Sorenstam) to
straighten out their game.
Our Approach
Whatever degree of golf accomplishment you have, Tai Chi
and Aikido exercises can help improve your balance and power.
This approach promotes a healthy integration of all parts –
body, mind, emotions and spirit.
