I'm a paragrap

I first became aware of Brian Sparks, the founder of Easiest Swing, in 2017 when one of

my students suggested that I watch Brian’s, now famous 3-minute video I was intrigued

because I had been playing and studying golf for over 50 years and had never heard

of Brian Sparks.

​

I was further surprised when I discovered that this short video (To your right ---->) with no

audio had been viewed over 300,000 times.  Who, I wondered, was this guy?

​

Today that short video has been viewed close to 800,000 times, and I am certain the number of views will soon pass one million.

 

After watching several more of Brian’s videos, I wanted to learn more about his thoughts on coaching, so I contacted him in the UK.  As it turned out, we had much in common.  We were both the same age, we had both written books on golf, and our belief about how the swing was best taught was quite similar.  

​

After months of Zoom conferences, we became friends and I decided to introduce his drills and swing philosophy to the US. So, I took his extensive certification course and became the first certified Easiest Swing coach in the United States.

​

When Brian passed in 2022, his Brian’s brother Philip, also a British PGA professional, assumed control of Easiest Swing. He, along with his son Peter and coaches Sean Herron and Aaron Galbraith, have done a wonderful job of growing the business.

 

The Easiest Swing YouTube channel now has almost 70,000 subscribers and they created the very popular Easiest Swing Club which now has hundreds of members all over the world.

I recently spent a week in the UK working Philip, Peter, Sean and Aaron. I enjoyed every moment, it was a wonderful learning experience.  I even took the certification course again, just to stay fully updated.

 

The Easiest Swing philosophy

 

Easiest Swing is not about swing technique.  Early in his career, Brian learned that the golf swing could not be effectively taught through forcing his students into a series of unnatural positions.

 

This commonly practiced approach is sometimes referred to as the “connect-the-dots” method, or the “cookie cutter” method. I always found that the commonly practiced “One swing for everyone” approach seldom worked and most often made students worse.

​

Brian agreed and found that his students progressed much faster when they quieted their minds, stayed fully relaxed, and were given the opportunity to discover their own natural way of swinging the golf club. Brian referred to the student’s natural swing as their “authentic swing”.

​

To encourage relaxation, turning, and freedom of motion, Brian would start every

lesson with his now famous drill, La Danse du Golf.Watch it demonstrated in detail

​​Wanting to eliminate tension,Brian

taught his students to alwaysabide by his

​

Three Deadly Don’ts:

 

Don’t try to keep your head still

Don’t try to keep your left arm straight

Don’t try to keep your front foot rooted to the ground on the backswing.

Today, we Easiest Swing coaches have added a Fourth Deadly Don’t

Don’t feel tension in any part of your body

 

Brian believed that a truly authentic swing motion had the Six Core Swing Basics listed below.  And he worked to instill those “basics” into every student’s swing.

 

                                                                   Turning

                                                                   Weight Shift

                                                                   Rhythm

                                                                   Balance

                                                                   Coordination

                                                                   Fluidity

 

Brian successfully taught throughout Europe for over four decades.  I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to spend so many hours with him discussing golf and the art of coaching.

He was very generous with his time, and I consider him to be my greatest mentor.

 

I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from him and for now being able to pass along his ideas to golfers throughout the US.

 

Senior Golfers

 

While Brian taught the Easiest Swing to golfers of every age and skill level, he believed that senior golfers would find the approach to be particularly beneficial. He felt that after years of frustration and struggle, seniors would quickly embrace the simplicity and freedom of motion that Easiest Swing provided.

​

He was correct. To date, I’ve taught Easiest Swing principles not only to golfers throughout Southern California, but also to golfers flying into California from over 20 states.

It has been fun and the results have been wonderful!

 

The Easiest Swing Experience

 

For golfers traveling a long distance to work with me, I created a two and one-half day 20-hour intensive workshop that I’ve named The Easiest Swing Experience.

 With private instruction throughout the Goose Creek practice facility, and on the beautiful Goose Creek golf course.  I’ll teach each student the Easiest Swing approach to:

                Putting, chipping and greenside sand shots

                Pitching and part swings             

                Iron, hybrid and fairway wood swings

                The driver

                Specialty and recovery shots

                Course management

                The mental game

​

Being a clubmaker, I also evaluate each student’s clubs. I check the specifications of each of their golf clubs, evaluate their set composition and, if needed, suggest changes that might make the game a bit easier.

​

Finally, for future reference, I’ll give each student signed copies of my three books and coaching manual:

 

The Mad Science of Golf - On moving past golf  industryhype and learning

to play better golf.

​​​

Understanding Golf - Learn to significantly loweryour average score without

hitting the ball farther, changing your swing, or buying expensive golf clubs.                        

​

Rethinking Golf Clubs – An inside perspective on theconfusing and very

misunderstood world of golf clubs

​​

My Coaching Manual – Playing the game the way it was always meant to be played.

   1 Student                        $1999
