Golf excellence requires a swing that can be constantly reproduced. To achieve this, the golfer must have an efficient swing motion to produce the proper club face alignment, swing path, impact and club head speed. Power Golf Pilates is a golf fitness system that strengthens your core, increases flexibility, improves posture, and builds stability, helping you to hit the ball farther, straighter and more accurately. Power Golf Pilates can help you achieve:
Better overall fitness
Increased strength and endurance
Increased flexibility and balance
Increased club head speed and power
Increased shot accuracy
Less injuries
Power Golf Pilates was developed by PGA Teaching Professional Rick Nielsen. After taking pilates classes to improve a back injury, Rick noticed a marked improvement in his drives and iron shots. He became a Certified Pilates Instructor in 2007 after training at Core Pilates NYC, the premiere pilates instruction studio in the country. He is the only PGA professional in the country who is also a certified pilates instructor. His knowledge of both disciplines is invaluable in delivering the highest quality instruction for each and every client regardless of age, fitness levels or skill.

Fitness Evaluation Screenings
Fitness evaluations consist of a series of functional muscle
screens designed to evaluate the body’s ability or inability to perform
in a golf swing. This directly correlates with a player’s swing faults.
We have evaluated hundreds of professional and amateur golfers to
determine the most effective physical screening process. After
identifying the golfer’s biomechanical faults, flexibility, strength and
balance; a custom golf fitness program is then designed around the
player’s physical limitations to improve the body’s performance as it
relates to the golf swing.
The complete fitness evaluation consists of a detailed
report outlining the results of the golfer's physical exam and assigns
them a “fitness handicap”. A custom workout program is designed based
upon the results of the physical assessment. The client has access to
their custom workout program via the internet. They receive an
individual username and password to access their exercise program and
evaluation results. All exercises are able to be viewed via video clips,
or can be printed out and brought to the gym. In addition, we will give
you access to various articles on fitness, equipment and nutrition
along with other golf related topics.
The results
of the program have proven to be tremendous in lowering a golfer’s
handicap. The exercises help you to gain greater distance, accuracy and
balance, along with better posture. Not only will the golfer’s body have
the physical ability to get in better positions, the life time swing
faults due to physical limitations are now corrected and the final
result is a better golfer and lower scores.
