What is a movement assessment?

At Kinect Performance, everyone goes through the movement assessment. It is thorough, informative, and best of all, free. We use K-Motion 3D motion capture to retrieve data down to the degree of movement. This allows the Kinect Performance trainers to learn what is happening with your movement and then construct a program that is perfectly tailored for you. The assessment takes between 45-60 minutes.

This is what the Titleist Performance Institute has to say about the screen: The most efficient swing is not the same for every rotational athlete, because efficiency is unique to their body. To achieve efficiency, an athlete must first be screened. This screen involves an assessment of biomechanics, physical fitness, movement quality, current health and a client history. Once this screen is finished, the results are used to create a plan unique for that athlete. The plan may include fitness training, physical therapy and treatment, coaching of mechanics and biomechanics, nutrition, mental strategy or all of the above.

What is TPI Certification?

TPI is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing.

Since its inception in 2003, TPI has studied thousands of golfers ranging from the top professional Tour players to weekend enthusiasts. An incredible amount of data on players of all shapes, sizes, ages, and fitness levels has been gathered during this time. Using this data, TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a golf club in the most efficient way possible. Additionally, TPI has analyzed how physical limitations in a player’s body can adversely affect the golf swing and potentially lead to injury.

TPI’s mission is to educate golfers and industry professionals on the Body-Swing Connection™ through its one of a kind TPI Certified educational program. This program was developed by founders Dr. Greg Rose and Dave Phillips along with a 52 member advisory staff of industry leading experts. Five unique fields of study are offered for TPI Certification: Golf, Medical, Fitness, Power and Junior Development.
