I took golf bio-mechanics in University but since I never played golf at the time, I never fully understood the complexities, the subtleties, and the difference between an efficient swing that delivered Effortless Power, versus a swing that was flawed, and inefficient that produced Powerless Effort.
Most people will never make it on to the PGA Tour, but many have taken up the game because of past-on memories from a family member. BUT, to remain injury free, enjoying the round, and keep coming back, a person MUST develop balance in their bodies; top must match the bottom, side to side, as well as front to back. It is paramount that all three quadrants are all on the same page and able to load the body in such a way to be able to take that kinetic energy that's stored on one side of the body, and with the slightest effort, now be able to transfer that stored kinetic energy into a down swing and release that power into that little tiny innocent white object we call a GOLF BALL.

TPI has designed a training program to allow even the higher handicap person to drop several strokes per round continually.
"There are thousands of ways to swing a golf club, but only ONE WAY to swing efficiently"--Titleist Performance Institute.

What I've designed is to maximize a person's strengths, while decreasing the weaknesses, and this allows any person to develop an efficient swing sooner than just hitting thousands of golf balls at the range which is the worst thing and only magnifies the swing flaws. I went from a +50 Index in 2007 and currently a 2.5 today, and this is with 19 serious lower back injuries and two dislocated pelvises. I also qualified three years in a row for the GTNAS in Niagara Falls in 2011, Doral and the Blue Monster in Oct 2013, Big Bear GC in Victoria 2013.

Develop fitness, balance, core, and flexibility first, and the swing will take care of itself.
