Yoga Therapy for Golfers is a culmination of two of my passions: golf and Yoga. Having been a Yoga practitioner for 17 years and a golfer for 15 years, I saw a pattern between the two in terms of my own athletic ability, mind-set and performance. After being sidelined with some injuries, I decided to take a closer look at how Yoga can help golfers heal from injuries to get back in the game sooner and/or achieve their personal goals. In my sessions, not only are the specific physical needs addressed but also the all important aspect of mental focus.
I work with golfers individually to improve their strength, flexibility, balance and mental focus using the tools and practices of Yoga. I customize a Yoga practice to help each golfer improve their specific health needs, performance and enjoyment of the game.
Yoga Therapy Can Improve YOUR Golf Game
Testimonials from YTFG Students
Many professional athletes, including golfers, have incorporated yoga into their conditioning and training regimen. Why?
In golf, stabilty, flexibity, mobility, balance and proprioception (awareness/perception of the positioning and movement of the body) are the key physical elements of success. Yoga addresses each of these needs beautifully and is the basis of my work with each student. Yoga therapy takes the benefits of Yoga even further because it offers a customized practice to specifically address one's strengths and weaknesses.
Unlike group Yoga classes, Yoga therapy is conducted in a one-on-one session with a Certified Yoga Therapist, like myself, and the practice is customized for one's abilities, health needs, goals and takes into consideration any injuries or ailments specific to an individual. Yoga therapy is a holisitic practice so there is also a strong emphasis on the breath as well as mental focus, both of which are key in taking your game to the next level.

"You taught me how to improve my flexibility and at the same time introduced me to connecting mind and body. I believe that your teaching me how to breathe properly is the key to benefiting from the various exercises you taught me. As a result, I am adding yoga to my exercise program. You are a very good teacher...and, by the way, I have experienced improvement in my golf swing since taking your yoga class. I feel less tension and more focused on my goal (particularly in putting)." -Neil W., Porter Ranch, CA

"I just want to take a moment to thank you. With your help, I have been able to play golf and live a more physically comfortable life. Your vast knowledge and patience really made a difference in my recovery and my golf game." -Luis M., West Hills, CA
"Recently I walked off a golf course after another terrible round of golf. I used to have a 7 handicap and now couldnt break 90..I had completely lost my game and my emotions. I was considering not playing again, after having played and enjoyed golf for 40+ years. As I was considering this, I received a text regarding Yoga and golf. I responded immediately and scheduled some appointments with Frances.
My golf and my emotional state was about to be changed. I cannot give her a higher recommendation for helping me find serenity and peace in my daily life which I can now bring on the golf course. A new attitude and tools to use when golf brings its frequent frustrations. I am now enjoying golf again….and my entire emotional world has calmed down." Steve A., Santa Monica, CA
