In this context, reasearch studies on the role of critical factors involved in Golf training are presented. All this information on brain function and motor control is not limited to putting or Golf, it is underlying all kinds of human movement learning. The seminar closes with briefly discussing „task specific“ movement problems in sports such as Yips and presenting a specific training aproach.
The objectives of the SAM Level2 certification seminar are amongst others:
- Putt Performance and Consistency
- The Science of motor learning and motor control
- Research studies on motor learning
- Research studies on the role of feedback
- Yips analysis and interventions
