Mark Norton
Personal Trainer
Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist
Licensed Adventure Boot Camp Instructor
Mark Norton has been studying fitness for 17 years and helping people to live fit and healthy lifestyles for more than 14. In 1996, Mark graduated with a B.A. in Kinesiology from the University of Colorado and, since then, he has been certified as a strength and conditioning specialist by the NSCA (2006). He also has certifications through ISSA (1996), ACE (1997), NCEP (2001) and NCSF (2002).
But his passion for health and the biomechanics of the human body started long before then. As a child, he was active in tennis, football, wrestling, weight-lifting, soccer and gymnastics. And by age 15, he had designed his dream gym. While at college he competed in tennis, and, by 1993, he became a fitness and tennis instructor. Unlike most of us, what Mark wanted to do when he grew up was exactly what he was doing.
In 2005, he placed 3 rd at the Arizona Natural Bodybuilding Competition. Today, as a strength and conditioning specialist, Mark’s training style is a combination of his extensive knowledge of the inner-workings of the human body and his love for a variety of physical activities.
As a result, his style blends Olympic lifting, functional training, core training, body-building, Yoga, Pilates, dynamic flexibility, Kettle bell, assisted stretching and corrective exercise. To Mark, fitness is a way of life, and variety is an essential spice to staying motivated.
But fitness as a way of life means different things to different people. For an 80-year-old woman, it may mean reducing dependency on prescription drugs and pain, for a high school hockey player, it might mean increasing muscle, flexibility and power. There are many variables that play into the optimal fitness routine. Mark’s creativity in integrating a variety of techniques ensures each client gets the personalized results they seek.
Mark’s goal is to help everyone live a better life. But just because he cares, don’t expect a softie. He knows your limits, and he’ll continually push you just past them until you start to see results. Because his technique is so customized to each person’s body, age and goals, he’ll build a program that succeeds for you. That’s why he has a 100% satisfaction guarantee. So, your only risk is not getting started on a better you today.

Carolyn Corritore is the instructor for our Fountain Hills Boot Camp. Carolyn holds certifications from National Strength and Conditioning Association and American College of Sports Medicine, and an Occupational Certification in Yoga from Scottsdale Community College. She holds Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Arizona State. Carolyn has been involved in helping others reach their fitness goals for over 20 years. For her, fitness is both and way of life and a way to enjoy life.
Carolyn takes an overall approach to fitness, including many disciplines based on the client’s ability level, past injuries, and fitness history. Having been involved in sports most of her life, Carolyn can draw from her personal experience in triathlons, open water swimming and yoga. She has competed in every distance of a triathlon, as well as swimming and running races. She believes that yoga is a great complement to many other forms of exercise by improving balance and joint mobility.
According to Carolyn, helping people achieve their fitness goals is extremely rewarding. As a person gets more fit, their health and general overall well being is increased. She loves the challenge of helping beginners, (as well as those who are ready to take it to the next level), improve their fitness safely and gradually. Preventing injury is one of her primary concerns and workouts are designed accordingly. She also feels that analyzing likes and dislikes can help develop a work out program that is unique to the individual.
