Exciting New Golf School at Tipness Shimoiwasuka
In a significant development for health and fitness enthusiasts, Tipness Co., Ltd., which operates a range of comprehensive fitness clubs in the Kanto, Kansai, and Tokai regions, has officially opened a new golf school and practice facility at Tipness Shimoiwasuka on May 1, 2025. With its foundation in Tokyo, the company, led by President Akihiro Shimizu, aims to provide not just existing members but also the wider public with a place to enjoy the sport of golf.
Community Engagement and Lifelong Sports
For over 30 years, Tipness Shimoiwasuka has been a hub of health for local residents of all ages, supporting their fitness journeys. The addition of a golf facility allows for greater community engagement, as golf is a lifelong sport that can be enjoyed by people across generations. Through fitness and golf, Tipness hopes to create opportunities for families and friends to connect and promote an active lifestyle among the community.
Expert Coaching for Improvement
The golf lessons will be conducted by the experienced coaches of the 'Zero-Kara Golf Club', who focus on helping participants develop a swing that is effective on grass. The lessons incorporate internationally recognized golf fitness principles, enabling participants to assess their posture, body type, and overall physical fitness including flexibility, mobility, and strength. This hands-on coaching approach emphasizes connecting bodily movements and golf swings, allowing students to genuinely appreciate the joys of 'golf transformed by the body'. Additionally, courses and round lessons will be available, providing a practical application of learned skills on the green.

These challenges often stem from an individual's 'Body Functionality, Operability, and Fitness'. This event helps assess golfers through 10 specialized 'Golf Body Checks' that correlate bodily movements and habits with golf swings, providing personalized training recommendations. Together, the fitness club and golf school aim to promote a joyful and sustainable life in golf well into old age.
