Methods of enabling locomotor control, postural control, voluntary control of body movements (e.g., in non-weight bearing conditions), and/or autonomic functions in a human subject having spinal cord injury, brain injury, or neurological neuromotor disease. In certain embodiments, the methods involve stimulating the spinal cord of the subject using an epidurally placed electrode array, subjecting the subject to physical training thereby generating proprioceptive and/or supraspinal signals, and optionally administering pharmacological agents to the subject. The combination of stimulation, physical training, and optional pharmacological agents modulate in real time electrophysiological properties of spinal circuits in the subject so they are activated by supraspinal information and/or proprioceptive information derived from the region of the subject where locomotor activity is to be facilitated.

A method for teaching golf based upon comparing a commonality of personal characteristics of a student and the personal characteristics of a group of high-level golfers is contemplated herein. Data mining is used to determine clusters of golfers with common physical characteristics and commonality of swings, based upon real-time measurements. A canonical swing is developed for each desired cluster. Prospective students have their respective personal characteristics determined and used to place them in a cluster. The canonical swing of that cluster is assigned to the student. Subcomponents of performing a canonical swing are determined for instructional purposes. Biomechanical and Newtonian mechanics are used to measure the ball flight's sensitivity to each subcomponents' accurate performance and a scoring system is produced to provide a simple measure of students' state of mastering their respective canonical swings.
