Podcast appearances and mentions of jamie zimron

914: Jamie Zimron of https://TheCenteredWay.com joins us for the first time in a couple years to talk about how important center contact on every one of your golf clubs will improve each ball strike, from driver to putter. So instead of focusing on various swing mechanics, or tinkering with position of body parts during your swing, just focus on making center contact and you'll be surprised. We're so proud to congratulate Jamie for receiving the PGA SF Pride Golf Tournament “Excellence in Golf” award this week. That leads to a discussion on how the PGA and LPGA are so far ahead of other sports to openly embrace members of the LGBTQ+ community. Jamie has written a series of articles on Hetero/Sexism in Sports. Here are the titles and links to each piece.

814. Sir Nick Faldo. John Daly. Jim McLean. Rick Smith. All wear SQAIRZ golf shoes because they improve their golf game. A wild statement that usually means a paid endorsement. But that's not the case. Each of these high profile golf professionals discovered SQAIRZ golf shoes on their own, tested them out and were convinced that these are the best golf shoes ever made. And now there's science to back up some of these outrageous claims. Our guest this week is CEO and Founder of SQAIRZ, Bob Winscowicz and makes an important point. There's only two points of contact in golf. Your hands with the club, and our feet with the ground. Listen to hear how the wrong shoes can rob you of distance, consistency, and swing speed.

This week on Golf Smarter Mulligans 130 is a pretty funny conversation with author of “Straight Down The Middle” Josh Karp.

So he took lessons from many of the mental coaches that have been featured on Golf Smarter including Fred Shoemaker, Dr. Joseph Parent, and Jamie Zimron. This book is about his adventure and mis-adventures to complete his quest. Originally published in 2010.

812: Terry “The Wedge Guy” Koehler has spent his life in pursuit of creating the best wedge for amateur players. In this episode you'll hear how the average golfer is getting fooled by purchasing wedges that we see on the PGA Tour. Not only do we not hit wedges as precise as the Pros, but their wedges are customized for every golf course they play in competition depending on the course, conditions, bunker sand, etc. Tour Pros precision and accuracy dictates that they can hit the stick from almost any location inside 150 yards, and still get a tremendous amount of spin. Do you do that? If not, then you should listen to this episode, especially if you're putting new wedges on your holiday wish list! EdisonWedges.comGolf Smarter is your podcast forecaddie!

775: Jamie Zimron, our golf sensei, returns to explain why she loves to play boring golf and what we can do to get there. What’s boring golf? Fairway. Green. Fairway. Green. etc. When we play stress-less, we prosper more. That’s achieved through self-management where you’re trying to minimize damage during a round. Most amateurs are poor at it, but it’s not hard to achieve once you understand that bad decisions lead to negative self-talk. How do you get there? Listen for details. Jamie, a black belt in Aikido, LPGA Instructor, and motivational speaker can be found at KiaiGolf.com. This week on Golf Smarter Mulligans episode 91, we replay our interview with Phil Kenyon the principal at HarodSwashPutting.co.uk. In our conversation from 2009 Phil talks in detail about all things putting, including how the ball comes off the putter and why C-Groove technology was so revolutionary at the time. Harold Swash (2016 R.I.P.), was the inventor of C-Groove technology, the main feature of the YES! Putter product line. YES! Putters is no longer in business, but Phil is still teaching putting excellence under the name of Swash Putting.

686: Jamie Zimron, our golf sensei, returns to discuss the difference of teaching women to play golf vs teaching men. Their likes, dislikes, what resonates, and why it’s different then teaching men. And since Jamie is an activist/feminist/licensed psychotherapist/LPGA Certified Golf Instructor/Marshall Arts master/etc, Fred asks her about Tiger’s victory at The Masters and if she can separate her feelings between the golfer and the man.

606 “The Zone”…“Peak Performance”…there are different names for it, but you know how powerful it is when you’re there. A few episodes ago we heard Jamie Zimron talk about Scott Ford, an instructor who has helped her and scores of golfers understand how to achieve peak performance and get into a zone during a round of golf. Scott’s approach is both effective and practical. In this episode, host Fred Greene talks to Scott on how he discovered that he’d achieved his ‘zone’ and how we can get there with some simple tips.       Scott has 2 books he’s published on this topic, “Welcome To The Zone” and “Integral Consciousness And Sport” and we’d like to give you one for free!

535: The 2016 Masters was an amazing showcase of professional golf at the highest level. But upon closer inspection, it also showed that there are moments of the PGA Tour that look an awful lot like weekend golf by mid and high handicappers. Dropping the ball in the water two shots in a row, 3 and 4 putting from inside 10 feet, trying to make difficult shots in windy conditions, all these and more come from a place that’s common to all golfers…poor decision making. And all that leads to stress which have disastrous effects on your swing and your round. This week we speak with old friend Jamie Zimron, LPGA, aka The Golf Sensei on how to reduce stress which leads to better swings and lower scores. Woman’s Golf Retreat “Raise Your Game in 2016” April 30-May 1,  2016  Jamie & Fred’s video tip on Chipping Around the Green:Golf Smarter can now be heard on Stitcher Radio! Please click on the Survey icon next to the Hey Fred button at GolfSmarter.com, to take our brief multiple choice survey so that we can learn more about you, what you like, and what you don't like about the Golf Smarter Podcast.

Susan Chandler talks with Jamie Leno Zimron, 5th degree aikido black belt and founder of the Middle East Aikido Project, about the Training Across Borders aikido peace building seminar in Greece in October 2015.

Join us Sunday March 8, 2015 as Restita and Robert welcome Sensei Jamie Zimron to the show! Give us a call to speak to her about Aikido, the "Middle East Aikido Project", the International event "Training Across Borders", and.....Golf! A combination of an athletic body, studious mind and curious spirit has taken me on a rich lifetime journey of exploring our multi-faceted human beingness, and how to best express our full capabilities in every aspect of daily living. I started golfing at age 7, became a state and national junior golf champion, and have loved sports all my life. At age 21, as a Stanford University undergrad, I first discovered Aikido.  After graduating Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford, with studies across a broad range of Social Sciences, I immersed in learning bodywork and somatic healing. I earned my Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology at Antioch West University in San Francisco, then worked in private practice and on staff at the Institute for Personal Change. During that time I established and was Chief Instructor of the Women’s Aikido School / Aikido Arts Center of SF (1980-1994), and began teaching nationally, in the ex-Soviet Union, Canada and Israel. In the mid-1990s I lived in Jerusalem, taught Aikido and mind-body healing work, and became involved in Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts. Upon returning to the US and San Diego, I learned further modalities to recover from long-standing sports injuries and adrenal exhaustion.  In 2000 I created KiAi Golf, joined the LPGA, and founded The KiAi Way Inc. to bring innovative high performance principles and practices to golf and sports, leadership, workplace wellness, communication and conflict resolution, to individuals and in the corporate and non-profit business arenas.   

467: Jamie Zimron is probably one of the most fascinating certified LPGA instructors I've ever encountered. A National Junior Golf Champion, Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford undergraduate, a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology, an accomplished Aikido instructor, a motivational speaker, a peace activist in the Middle East, the founder of the KiAi Way®, and has put it all together for a leading-edge integrative body-based peak performance method.In her fifth appearance on Golf Smarter, we talk about the critical value of balance, whether strength or flexibility is more important, and the importance of relaxation through the swing. Jamie has a number of training DVDs on her website
