Do you want to improve your golf game?
Do you ever get a stiff back or stiff knees after golf?
Our Pilates classes can teach you how to eliminate pain and stiffness and improve your golf game by focusing on improving your core stability, pelvic stability and hip, shoulder and spine mobility.
Pilates helps to connect your mind and body and will improve your focus during your game. It teaches you how to recruit your muscles correctly and how to activate your inner corset “ core muscles” which will assist in preventing golf-related muscle sprains and strains.
Pilates will improve your golf game by:
. Strengthening your core muscles to reduce pain and stiffness in your lower back allowing for improved posture at address
. Improving spine mobility which will help you to rotate further in the back swing
. Improving shoulder strength and mobility which will help you to reach the right positions in the back swing without putting stress on your shoulder joints
.Stabilising your pelvis which will keep your lower body still while you are rotating into the back swing . A stable lower body, combined with increased flexibility will help you to coil more efficiently in your back swing
. Pilates will also improve your hip rotation so that you don’t overcompensate with your knees or back on your follow-through
The benefit of doing clinical Pilates programs with a physiotherapist is that physiotherapists have done years of additional study learning the best exercises to correct dysfunction, imbalances and asymmetries in mobility and stability so that we can provide the best solutions to improve your overall performance, movement and strength.
