ABOUT US
Daniela Schellenberg, Founder of SWISSFIT GOLF
"Born and raised in Switzerland, I became a sports enthusiast early on. At age twenty-six I sustained a serious back injury brought on by overtraining and pushing beyond my limits. I herniated three vertebral discs that required hospitalization and a prolonged physical rehabilitation program. It was during rehab that I was introduced to the Feldenkrais Method, a learning system based on the improvement of functioning through the medium of physical movement.
This was a life changing experience and motivated me to become certified in the Method. Despite my concerns about back stress associated with golf, I discovered I could play golf pain free thanks to the Feldenkrais method."
After teaching sports physiology over twenty years, I wanted to share my own experience with how it is possible to enjoy sports after a serious injury. This is why I started my own business and developed SWISSFIT GOLF.
My passion is to teach people how to exercise and train with an enhanced sense of awareness to reduce tension and ultimately create a more fluid, powerful golf swing."

""During my client's re-checks at Fit for Golf, I observed significant improvements. After training for half a year, the customers were much more flexible and stable which resulted in a better ball striking through impact and more distance. I can recommend the SWISSFIT GOLF Program to anyone!"
