Michele Graham

Golf Specific Conditioning Specialist - Great Neck

Michele graduated with a B.S. in Sports Medicine and a Masters Degree in Exercise Physiology from The University of Virginia. While attending The University of Virginia, Michele was a founding member and the first captain of the women’s golf team. She is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association and is a club fitting expert for Callaway Golf.

Her main interests are the study of the biomechanics of the golf swing and how to optimize golf performance through physical training. She has traveled to the Titleist Performance Institute in California and the Melbourne Golf Injury Clinic in Australia to further study these topics and to develop screening and training procedures for golfers.

Michele also designed and authored a graduate research thesis that studied increases in clubhead speed following a golf specific strength and flexibility training program.

Michele believes in a team approach to performance enhancement and will work directly with your swing coach to achieve your goals. Her program is a mix of strength and flexibility training, functional training and golf-specific motor learning drills.

Michele uses video analysis and functional movement screening to determine the body’s mobility and stability and how each affects the golf swing. '
