EYEGYM

Enhancing eye-hand, foot and body co-ordination works to improve response skills. EyeGym is a high tech online software programme devised by visual skills scientist and leader in the field of visual performance training Dr. Sherylle Calder. EyeGym works under the pretense that when players see more, they can assess the situation much quicker, exercise their options, and ultimately make better decisions.

Having both eyes move, align and focus as a team enhances an athlete’s ability to interpret and understand the potential visual information that is available. Through its revolutionary programme, EyeGym seeks to do just that – improve visual co-ordination and response skills. Dr. Calder has worked with numerous sports teams and athletes, including:



  • 2007 Springbok World Cup rugby winners
  • 2003 England World Cup rugby winners
  • Golfers Ernie Els, Retief Goosen, Robert Karlsson amongst others
  • Leading Formula 1 team
  • Various international football teams
  • International field hockey
  • Davis Cup tennis players
  • Proteas cricket team
