Dr. David A. Berv
USGTF Level III Member, Richmond, Virginia

I have been a sports chiropractor for 15 years, and in an effort to create a niche for myself in Richmond, Virginia, I began to specialize in golf performance. After achieving post-graduate certifi cations in golf fi tness and golf biomechanics, I developed and trademarked a software program called Play Better, Play Longer, which calculated and highlighted areas of physical and functional weakness in the golfer, and correspondingly assigned golf-specifi c exercise routines. I integrated my program and its principles into a system where I work at a 1:1 ratio with a golfer. The program goes by the name “InnerSwing.”

In 2004, a local sports management company introduced me to legendary tour player Bobby Wadkins. I worked with Bobby personally, and through his contacts and infl uence, I attended multiple Champion Tour events, which further provided the opportunity to work with numerous Champion Tour players.

Currently, as a USGTF teaching pro, I have established an indoor year-round clinic where I use video, 3-D motion analysis, and I teach golf-specifi c exercise protocols to turn weaknesses into strengths. As an added qualifi cation, I have multiple certifi cations from the Titleist Performance Institute in fi tness, biomechanics and technique. My students include other golf teaching professionals, high level amateurs, and touring professionals.
