Breathe

Number 1 way to improve your performance

The easiest and most effective way to be athletic is by controlling your breathing pattern. By controlling your breathing, you are able to

Release anxiety
Increase awareness
Be athletic

Yes, it's that simple! Sadly, most people do not pay attention to their breathing techniques, which causes them to get anxious, tighten their grip pressure and create numerous swing flaws.

With use of the FocusBand, we are able to prove to golfers that being in the "athletic" state of mind increases their odds of hitting it more solid with a more consistent golf swing.

Here is a practice you can incorporate to your daily routine to improve your performance on the golf course. You will be surprised how relaxed it makes you feel and how more enjoyable the game becomes!

My goal is to educate golfers of all ability levels on how to practice golf smarter, in order to improve faster. Golf was labeled “the worst practiced sport in the world” recently by Golf Science Lab. I could not agree more, golf is hard but we make it harder by the way we train. Join me and my team of coaches as we continue to find the best ways to practice and play golf so all of us can enjoy the game more and shoot lower scores!
