A device for improving the posture of a user when the user is engaged in certain activities, such as swinging a golf club, comprises an elongated rigid member having a securement element or strap extending therefrom. The rigid member has a length extending along the back of the user and the strap is adapted to secure the elongated rigid member to the user. The length of the rigid member is sufficient that a lower end of the rigid member is disposed at or below the waist of the user and an upper end of the rigid member is disposed behind the head of the user. Importantly, the head of the user is unattached to the rigid member, so that the user's body is free to flex and rotate in the performance of the certain activity. The device is designed to provide tactile stimulation to help improve motor learning responses, thereby increasing the possibility for behavior modification with respect to the assumption of appropriate postures during the desired activity.
