11/10 Golfers' PlayDay
Back9 Golfers' PlayDays "are the new Happy Hours"
 
Tour players and amateurs alike are hitting the ball consistently farther and straighter with reduced risk of injury and back pain with the Back 9 Pilates program. Much more than exercises or stretches, Pilates is a series of techniques that you'll use to move in the most efficient and pain-free way, in everything you do on and off the course!
 
A Certified Pilates Instructor and Golf Conditioning Specialist, Back9 founder Barb Hoffer trains golfers in Pilates methods used by Tour players such as Camilo Villegas and coaches such as Butch Harmon.
  • Experience Pilates techniques for on and off the course
  • Learn a simple 10-minute injury-prevention warm-up
  • Get "Golfers' At Home System" ($30 value) to take home for continued practice
Space is limited. Sign up now to see the difference in your game! 
  • Cost for a 2-hour PlayDay: $85
  • When: 11/10 from 6:30-8:30pm
  • Location: MPTW, Montclair Village (near Claremont Golf Course)
  • Please wear golf attire and bring a putter.
