Golfer’s Tree Pose

To avoid the trees on the links, incorporate this multi-tasking posture to your golf fitness regime.  Here are just a few of Tree Pose’s golf specific benefits:

• Improves balance for better weight shift and foundational lower body motion in the swing. 
• Lengthens and strengthens the side-body to improve rotation and coil.
• Gently opens the hips for more appropriate hip rotation.
• Adjust and opens the shoulders for better posture at set-up, counterbalancing the excessive computer and slouching-time of life.
• Most importantly, it trains mental focus and concentration.

Grow more consistency and power with this challenging posture.

*Avoid or modify if there is an injury.
