Pilates4Fitness Frequently Asked Questions

Every golfer, amateur or professional, wants to improve their golf game. Pilates has become the hottest trend for athletes, most particularly professional golf.

For example, did you know that Tiger Woods has a Pilates Instructor?

Pilates helps the golfer by strengthening and balancing the core muscles of the trunk, at the same time helping to prevent injury, especially to the back. The player is constantly bending over the ball twisting the body in one direction during a round of golf. This action causes overuse of the same muscles resulting in muscle imbalance; the lumbar spine takes the greatest toll. Pilates restores balance, realigns the body and restores normal, natural movement patterns.

Golfers will learn how to position their body correctly, how to breathe effectively and to be aware of increased tension. Golfers will learn to recognize “cheating mechanisms” where the wrong muscles are used to create movement. We take your swing weaknesses and turn them into swing strengths!
