GolfGym® and Tour Coach Joey D Open State-of-the-Art Golf Biomechanics and Training Academy in Jupiter, FL

JUPITER, FL – July 1, 2010 – GolfGym® has put the finishing touches on a 2,800 sq. foot training academy in Jupiter, FL. The state-of-the-art GolfGym Academy also serves as the training center for Joey Diovisalvi, an eleven-year coach of PGA Tour players and author of Fix Your Body, Fix Your Swing. Published in 2010 by St. Martins Press/Macmillan, the book is already in its third printing.

According to Diovisalvi (best known as Coach Joey D) both professional players and low index amateurs will be pleased to discover that the GolfGym Academy is outfitted with the same type of equipment found inside a tour fitness trailer (free weights, treadmills, weight machines, etc.) as well as golf-specific training apparatuses such as those manufactured by GolfGym. Current programs include golf biomechanics assessments and one-on-one coaching sessions.

“I wanted this coaching center to mirror a tour training experience, and it does,” said Joey. “While I continue to work closely with touring pros we’ve also had a tremendous response from PGA teaching professionals and their students.”

“I met Joey D three years ago and discovered we share the same vision,” said Ken Pierce, President of GolfGym LLC and Coach Joey D’s partner in the Academy. “We want to change the way golfers view biomechanics and its relationship to better performance on the course. We are accomplishing that in our new Academy.”

For more information about the GolfGym Academy or to schedule an assessment, one-on-one session or interview with Joey D, contact Vicki Pierce at (561) 741-3401 or vicki@golfgym.com.
