Golf Fitness Expert Hosts Online Yoga Course


Yoga For Golfers (YFG) Fitness Expert and Program Founder Katherine Roberts will present a YFG’s Online Teacher Training on Sept. 27. Developed primarily for golf, fitness, yoga, and teaching professionals (as well as practitioners interested in obtaining certification as a Yoga For Golfers instructor), this comprehensive online training can be conveniently received at home, office, studio, and/or golf facility.

According to Roberts, the 24 hours of charted curriculum focuses on a variety of functions: overall golf anatomy and basic mechanics of the swing, specific poses with direct correlation to the benefits of yoga for golf performance, and tools to help overcome common golf injuries. Additionally, Roberts will provide specific marketing & business development strategies, including potential income streams for certified instructors prepared to launch their own yoga & golf fitness-based business.

Each participant will receive a training manual with more than 100 pages of practical information about the golf swing, YFG’s popular par/birdie sequence, new proprietary training videos, plus real-time instruction (through the latest Internet technology), and designed for students to interact with the YFG training team.

Highly experienced in golf & fitness instruction, Roberts has trained teachers and pros spanning 15 countries around the globe, and provided golf fitness training through yoga to LPGA, PGA of America, and Canadian PGA teaching professionals, and also in Dubai, UAE, with course accreditation from The Professional Golfers’ Association.

“Through our team of highly qualified professionals we are able to offer an online training that is comprehensive in nature yet highly affordable and easily accessible too,” said Roberts. “While we’ll continue to offer our traditional on-site teacher trainings, we’ve discovered the online classroom environment works extremely well for quick learners and individuals with highly demanding schedules including golf instructors. Most students participate because they want to expand their golf, yoga, or fitness business, yet for others it’s strictly for personal knowledge and growth. Either way, the online instructional program provides a platform that allows us to reach enthused golfers, teaching pros and fitness instructors around the world.”

Prerequisite for the Online Teacher Training includes completion of a brief application and approval by the YFG training team. Upon seminar completion attendees will receive YFG Teacher Certification and will be included in referrals for local class requests plus listed in the YFG Online Teacher Directory.
