Due to the increasing demand for IMPACT ZONE™ instructor training and workshops, Impact Zone Golf announces The Advanced Training program. The training is designed to be a detailed, comprehensive three-level training program to equip golf teachers to properly instruct all levels of golfers in every aspect of the game, from the beginner, to the competitive golfer. Teachers will learn the most powerful and effective teaching system ever developed, known as IMPACT-BASED™ teaching. Completion of levels 1 and 2 of the Advanced Training program will qualify individuals to instruct in Impact Zone Golf’s Academies and Learning Centers as well as to conduct certification workshops. Completion of levels 1, 2, and 3 of the Advanced Training will qualify instructors to become “Advanced Master” IMPACT ZONE Instructors and all levels of instruction, including junior and competitive golfer development programs within Impact Zone Golf’s Academies and Learning Centers.
The Advanced Designation will signify that the instructor not only has the comprehensive knowledge of an IMPACT ZONE Certified, Associate Certified, or Coach, but has developed the tools to apply the knowledge into real live teaching experiences.
The first two-day Advanced Level 1 workshop will be hosted by Bobby Clampett and held April 15 and 16, 2012 in Las Vegas, Nevada. A second workshop, also hosted by Bobby, will be held April 24, 25, 2012 in Cleveland Ohio. Both of these workshops are adjacent to national meetings of the First Tee, where Bobby Clampett’s Impact Zone Golf will provide The First Tee Coachs two opportunities to get trained through this revolutionary IMPACT-BASED teaching. Only 5 spots are open to participants not associated with the First Tee. To reserve your spot, go to the sign-up page by clicking here – Workshop Sign-Up – and sign up now before your spot gets filled.
What To Expect?
You will learn how to take a novice golfer and best equip them to quickly develop his/her own swing style. After the basics of grip and address position are learned, you will be trained to lead the novice or beginning golfer to develop their own personal swing style designed to create dynamic impact. The swing is taught in steps to expedite the learning process and to develop balance, flow and muscle memory.
Upon the successful conclusion and certification of the Advanced Level 1 workshop, you will be able to demonstrate the following:
- Understand the difference between Swing Style and Impact Dynamics
- Gain a deeper understanding of Impact and the Five Dynamics
- Learn how to assess a student’s strengths of Dynamics, and to prioritize their areas for improvement
- Understand how to most effectively teach using an IMPACT-BASED approach and the Five Dynamics
- Learn how to quickly build a new beginners swing by teaching the student (in the following order):
- Putting Stroke-Dynamic #1
- The Chip Shot-Dynamic #2
- The Pitch Shot stroke-Dynamic #3, #4 and #5
- Lengthening the swing and implementing all the Dynamics
- How to expedite the student’s learning process
- Successful understanding and utilization of drills
Instructor Certifications
Upon successfully completing the workshop, you will be given two different opportunities to become certified with Impact Zone Golf. You can choose either a Certified, Associate Certified, or Coach Certified IMPACT ZONE Instructor; or become an Advanced Certified, Associate Certified or Coach Certified IMPACT ZONE Instructor. The Advanced Level 1 Certification requires the more comprehensive test. This “Advanced” designation is a higher designation than the current status of Associate Certified and Certified IMPACT ZONE Instructor.
Hey Bobby, I met you last year at the Principal charity classic in Des Moines, we talked a bit on the putting green about getting certified. I’m a class A PGA member and assistant golf professional at a private facility in WI and I do most of the teaching, interested in getting certified but am unable to get to Vegas or Ohio, is there ever going to be any closer to me? I see on the website that there are not really any instructors within 500 miles so I could help to fill a void. Any ideas or options you could give me would be very helpful. Thanks for your help and I look forward to hearing back from you and getting the ball rolling with this!
