2078767 9212768 PCTABS00014 A method and apparatus for training a user to move in a desired movement pattern, especially for training a golfer (100) to swing a golf club. One or more sensors are placed adjacent the user, for example pressure, sensors (110) under the user's feet and/or pressure sensor (112) between the user's hands and a golf club. The sensors generate signals corresponding to the user's movement. A comparator and signal generator (120) are used to compare a function of the user signals and a reference value, and to generate training signals which are communicated to the user, e.g. by means of radio frequency signals received by a headset (130) worn by the user. In this way, the user senses, during the actual movement, training signals which represent a relationship between the actual movement pattern and a desired movement pattern. Preferably, the comparator determines whether a function of the user signals is above or below a preselected and adjustable reference value, and the training signals undergo a distinct change when said function of the user signals crosses the reference value.
