Product Description

Product Description

About the book: This book is dedicated to the millions of golfers who have been misled by traditional concepts of golf swing technique which actually prevent them from swinging a golf club and playing the game in a way that is true to their personal flexibility, their age, and their individual body rhythms. The unconventional concepts in this book have the power not only to make the game much easier and more enjoyable but also to help players plug into the same natural abilities that all human beings possess. It is unusually interactive, starting by questioning you on your beliefs, then telling of Brian's own personal experience of going from beginner to tour player in 5 years. He goes on to give real life examples of his coaching philosophy and finishes with 10 practical steps that you can take immediately to improve your game. The incredibly simple 'La Danse du Golf' exercise can revolutionise your swing with its Six Core Basics and you will learn that these are the same that all top golfers display. This book is packed full of extremely effective ideas and is a must read for any golfer looking to improve or any beginner looking to learn the game quickly and effectively. If you are looking for a classic and traditional take on how to play golf, this book may not be for you. On the other hand, if you are unhappy with the results of normal teaching or you're just not happy with your game and have an open mind, then this book can transform your swing and the way you see yourself as a golfer. It is a must read that will inspire you with fresh and innovative options and alternatives for playing the game to your potential.

About the Author

Brian Sparks is a 58 year-old PGA Golf Professional who has enjoyed much success helping golfers since giving his first lesson in 1967. This was on his second day at work as a 16 year-old assistant and he has given over 50,000 lessons in his career to date. He played the European and Safari Circuits in the early 1970s, has been a Club Pro, Teaching Pro and General Manager at clubs in UK and in France. He is also a qualified 'Performance Coach.' His wide experience, aligned to an open and questioning mind, has led him to a remarkably simple concept for playing the game. In an effort to change the way golfers learn and the way golf is taught, he founded 'Positive Impact Golf' in 2006.

He played the first year of his golf in peaceful ignorance of swing technique during which time he made rapid progress. After a year he became an Assistant Golf Pro and started to learn about the detail of developing a good technical swing. From being able to play without knowing how to do it after one year he went through this learning period only to come out of it 2 years later not knowing how to play anymore!  He goes on to tell how he took the false route of looking for technical solutions imagining that he had developed dramatic faults only to discover many years later that the better path would have been to return to a natural and thought-free way of playing the game.

Positive Impact Golf 7 April 2011
Format:Paperback
I must thank Brian Sparks and "La Danse du Golf" for reintroducing enjoyment back into my golf. Giving me less to think about, the natural ingredients of 'La Danse' have enabled me to comfortably strike the ball without too much thought or effort. I am still surprised that a reduction in 'essential techniques' should make such a marked improvement to my game. But it does make so much sense. Thank you Brian.

sonny nairn 23 Mar 2011
Format:Paperback
Having spent my earlier years playing 'at golf' whilst trying to earn a living, and getting nowhere it is now a tremendous relief to discover it wasn't all my fault that the game was so difficult. I now understand the basics of the 'danse du golf' from reading the book and watching the video of Brian's swing and golf has been transformed into a pleasure to be enjoyed and not simply endured. The basic philosophy of the 'le danse' is in my view applicable to life in general and therefore is easy to relate to golf. Self awareness and tuning into my own potential by letting go of the restrictions previously taught by tradition methods has been a revelation. As I write, i have just returned from 18 holes in a pretty difficult course which a played fairly well in terms of scoring; but the real pay off is the pleasure i derived from playing in relaxed manner with a far greate degree of confidence. By the way i have only bought my own set of clubs within the last 2 years, and I am 72 years old so there's hope for everyone. Thank you Brian.
