Golf Biomechanic Certification Intensive

In the US, golf equaled swimming for participation with 16% of Americans actively participating — that's 43.5 million people! The fact is golfers will do anything to hit the ball longer and lower their handicap! Golfers regularly spend as much as $4,000 on a set of clubs, hoping for an extra few meters on their drive. The golf industry generates billions of dollars in sales every year!

But despite all the technological improvements in golf equipment, the average handicap for both males and females has not dropped in the past 16 years. Fifty-five years ago, golfers were winning tournaments such as the US Masters Championships with a score of 279; a score that would win many major tournaments around the world today! So much for golf technology.

What golfers are now discovering is that the clubs don't play the game, the golfer does! The only way to achieve a lower handicap is to improve the function of the golfer: the person who actually swings the club!

That's where the exercise specialist or golf pro can help. By becoming a certified Golf Biomechanic and learning how to improve performance in golfers by addressing golf-specific conditioning needs, these professionals can expand their skills to include a whole new niche.

Golfers need this service to reduce the incidence of injury. Did you know that 53% of male and 45% of female golfers suffer from low back pain, and 30% of all touring professionals are playing injured at any given time? The sport is also rampant with wrist problems, which is not surprising, considering the lack of core conditioning in most golfers, leading to overuse of the arms.
There are numerous certifications for many different things — few of which guarantee competence. To be awarded the C.H.E.K Institute seal of approval, you must prove that you have the hands-on skill that separates you from the rest. Paul Chek is well known for saying that "knowledge is not power, applied knowledge is power." As a certified Golf Biomechanic you will have demonstrated that you can apply the knowledge learnt in this course; your earning potential will be far greater than your competition and your results will prove it!

Holistic Lifestyle Coach

Optimal Health and Fitness Through Practical Nutrition and Lifestyle Coaching, this has produced life-changing results in both students and their clients. The course examines the symptoms of disease and stress and shows how they can be prevented through principles of proper eating, exercise and stress management. You will understand why every meal, every bout of exercise and every late night has a hormonal consequence. This course will show you how to use tools such as in-depth questionnaires to assess your clients and determine their readiness for change. In short, this course goes beyond the basics of anything you have learned in any type of ‘lifestyle coaching course’. This is wellness coaching the C.H.E.K way. An individual’s health lies in their own hands; you are simply there to show them the path.
