Jason is also a Certified Golf Fitness Professional from the Titleist Performance Institute. Certified Golf Fitness Professionals have gone through a rigorous training and evaluation process. The education provided gives the golf, fitness or medical professional the skills to put all golfers into better positions - allowing them to hit better golf shots. Do to a players' unique body or "golf fitness" level, they may not be able to accomplish what traditional instruction is asking them to do. There are 12 basis swing flaws that can be
addressed through a custom workout and stretching program - determined through a medical screen. After your screen, the CGFP will post your golf fitness plan on your own website for easy access and learning.
Take your first serious step in becoming a better golfer today.
"Jason, I cannot tell you and how many others what a wonderful golf intructor you are.
I have had lessons in the past and no one has ever been able to simply get the point
across as you have. You have the patience, intelligence, and a gift to teach. Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to learn"
