Riley Andrews, owner of Elite Golf Schools, explains his approach to teaching golf as a highly individualized process rather than forcing students into a predetermined method.
• Understanding that different PGA Tour players have vastly different swings but achieve similar results
• Teaching based on three "global laws": Woo-Woo (rhythm/tensegrity), Spirals (myofascial lines), and Geometry (club relationships)
• Using fascia and spiral lines to generate effortless power rather than muscle-based movements
• Focusing on ribcage rotation rather than hip rotation as the primary engine of the golf swing
• Recognizing that students need different amounts of information based on their learning style
• Viewing coaching as service where the student's needs come before the coach's ego
• Developing each player's unique "fingerprint" while improving functional movement
• Creating a proximal-to-distal mapping where body rotation leads club movement
• Understanding that all elite players shallow the club but through different methods
• Differentiating between passive release (angular force) and active release (alpha force)
