The ultimate Golf School
All golfers know the frustrations of golf. At "The Club", we offer a sensible solution! It is finally open! The ultimate Golf school at Golf-Health, "The Club" — Where Golfers Find Their Game. We utilize a unique combination of cutting-edge technologies to facilitate your learning and shorten your learning curve like never before!

In our new facility in Santa Monica, California, we assess every student's swing, equipment, mind and body and then develop a complete program for the individual. Our services range from custom club-fitting to golf lessons to rehabilitation exercises and stretching. All our protocols are simple, time efficient and easy to follow. Yet they are proven to be very successful! We can increase your club head speed by as much as 15% in one lesson and we can prove it!!The Gym

Many students have unrealistic expectations. They often think they can become a single digit handicapper if they play once a month. But anybody who has been around the game for a while knows that quick fix lessons do not work. Improving your game requires a clear plan, dedication and practice. Research has shown that structured programs and protocols will improve the students' learning curve. Having worked with high level athletes for the last 20 years, Dr. Reichardt, the founder of Golf-Health, has created a propriatary model for simpler, more effective teaching of golf.Net

"The Club" is quickly becoming the model for such accelerated learning in golf.

It is our contention that the key to building a successful golfer is to start with an assessment of all four cornerstones of golf:
  1. Equipment
  2. Swing
  3. Body
  4. Mind
Scale
Similar to a doctor's office, we assess each and every golf student, utilizing our own proprietary Golf Evaluation. We start with an Intake questionnaire and interview, then do a complete assessment of body, equipment, mindset and golf skills to establish the student's current status. Once this baseline has been established, a realistic plan is then devised and implemented. Students need to know what a series of lessons can accomplish, so that in the end they can realize their improvement and appreciate it. This sets up the stage for developmental teaching and true, lasting improvement.

They become a better player and therefore a committed participant in the sport. It becomes a win-win situation for the pro and the student. This approach significantly lowers the stress and frustration level for all parties involved.Seats
At "The Club" we offer a complete line of services, ranging from assessments only to golf lessons, custom club fitting, golf specific exercises to mental game training. Virtually any golfing needs can be fully addressed in our facilities, from beginner to the scratch golfer. Please click on this link to get to our appointment calendar.
