Just think about it. Golfers always favor one side of the body when approaching the ball and taking their swing (I assume you’re no different), which leads to a consistently lopsided game. Do you hold your breath? Lose your concentration? What is your body alignment?<\/p>\n
All of these things are addressed in the Pilates Method which focuses on concentration, centering, core strength, posture, alignment, breath, flexibility (including rotational flexibility) and a uniformly developed body.<\/p>\n
Stability in the pelvic and shoulder girdles translates into better balance.<\/p>\n
A strong core coupled with stability and increased rotational flexibility leads to a better balanced golf swing and increased power to the club head.<\/p>\n
Add in proper breathing, increased body awareness (i.e. posture, alignment and which muscle groups are being recruited to perform the task at hand) as well as a more focused approach, and it all adds up to a more biomechanically correct stance, swing and, ultimately, improved efficiency of movement for a lifetime of enjoyment on the course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
