1. A method of training in order to improve in the performance of a particular repeatable activity, comprising:

  • placing a motion sensor in a desired location;

    activating a software application on a personal communications device for receiving data from said motion sensor, and transmitting the data to a remote processor;

    conducting one repetition of a particular activity involving a repetitive motion;

    using the remote processor to process the data received from said motion sensor, compare the received data to stored data, determine proposed corrective action based on the comparison, and generate processed feedback data representing the proposed corrective action; and

    providing immediate visual feedback to a user by transmitting the processed feedback data to a display separate from the personal communications device and visible to the user while in position to conduct a next repetition, during the particular activity, regarding said proposed corrective action, so that the user may use the displayed processed feedback data to make adjustments before conducting a next repetition of the particular activity.
