“The information is understandable while comprehensive, and the various exercises can be accomplished predominantly without any additional equipment. This program is clear, concise, thorough and practical for life as well as for golf-specific flexibility, stability and mobility. It nails the fundamentals, so I recommend it for every serious golf coach.”
Coach Golf the Way the Body Is Designed to Move - No Assessment Required
3D Functional Golf Coach gives you evidence-based, practical strategies to help golfers move better, play with less limitation, and enjoy the game longer.
Overview
Swing faults often come from the body, not the club. You don’t need an assessment certification to fix them—you need golf-specific progressions that restore mobility, stability, and rotational power. 3DFGC gives you ready-to-use drills that mirror address, backswing, and finish—so players feel the difference in a single session.
Developed by Gray Institute® in collaboration with the Golf Fitness Association of America (GFAA), this course is tailored for PGA/LPGA teaching pros, personal trainers, physical therapists, and high school & college coaches who work with golfers. Why golf pros recommend this program.

FAQ
-
Do I need to learn an assessment?
No. 3DFGC is assessment-free. You’ll use swing-mapped progressions and simple tweak logic to create change. -

Yes—no special facility needed. Works at the range, in a studio, or in a clinic. -
How soon will players notice a difference?
Many coaches report immediate changes in mobility, strike, and comfort when drills are done before practice. -
Do I need 3DFMC first?
No. 3DFGC stands alone. (You can add 3DFMC later if you want more foundational movement progressions.) -
