TPI - Amazing!!

I just returned from a TPI Level One conference in Providence, RI. This is the first time I have attended a seminar and left charged up; ready to practice, research, and promote what I learned!

Many of you may not be familiar with TPI, which stands for Titleist Performance Institute, so here's a little background: two professionals (a golf professional and a medical professional) got together and started this wonderful program that helps medical pros, fitness pros and golf pros understand how to diagnosis the limitations of a golf swing. Level One is medical, golf and fitness professionals all in the same room. They train us all to 'speak' the same language and work together to help our students get better at golf.

How many of you have taken a golf lesson where the teacher has asked to you do something and while you try very hard, you just can't seem to do it? What if I told you that achieving that goal (being able to perform that 'drill') is as simple as adding an exercise to your fitness program? This training program teaches golf pros, medical pros, and fitness pros how to 'screen' students for injuries, weakness and limitations they may have in their body that are actually preventing them from being able to do what we 'pros' are asking! How great would it be for your certified TPI golf professional to screen you and say, "Well, Mrs. Habercamp, I want to send you to my certified TPI fitness pro so they can show you some exercises that you can do to improve your range of motion, which will in turn allow you to swing the club better, and start improve your playing ability."? I think it would be outstanding!

If you have interest and/or time, check out the TPI website (www.mytpi.com) to see how you can contact a certified TPI instructor and start working on your game today! If you are in the south east florida area, please come and see me as I am now TPI Level One certified.
