Multidisciplinary Golf Coaching

The Integral Golf Academy was created in 2019 by PGA Golf Professional Ignacio Isern. After working as a PGA Professional and coaching for 15 years it became very clear to Ignacio that to perform optimally in golf you need to develop a number of different aspects. All too often in coaching there is an excessive focus on just technique, but the reality is that most players are not able to physically reproduce some of those technical suggestions due to physical limitations, or lack of development in coordination or fundamental movement skills. Therefore, rather than focusing on helping the player improve their mobility in order to later achieve the technical goal, time is wasted trying to repeat something which is unattainable. The same happens with the mental aspect of golf. There are times when the issue is not physical but psychological and it is essential that the coach is able to identify that so that the training is focused on the root cause of the problem and not on one of the effects. The tactical and strategic components of performance are also often overlooked or not emphasized enough in certain cases. Having a clear picture of the root causes of your issues are & what you are intending to do to resolve them is essential to getting the desired outcome. After extensive experience working with beginners, amateurs, semi-professional and professional players who want to make a living playing at the top level Ignacio realized that even they often have very little awareness of what it takes to perform optimally physically and mentally. This process involves a lot of change and growth in ways that one may not expect initially. It's a very rewarding process which develops you as an individual in many ways. This process of developing the whole individual is the most effective and rewarding way to get results. In order to achieve this Ignacio works closely with experts in different fields such as physical therapist, fitness experts, biomechanics specialists, sports psychologists, and others so that his students are always advised by professionals who have great expertise in their fields. The Integral Golf Academy's mission is to help the beginners, average golfers & aspiring or current professionals to reach their goals by engaging in a multi-disciplinary process where all imaginable and unimaginable aspects are taken into consideration in order maximize performance and help players fully express themselves as golfers.
