About Us
Mark Avens
My name is Mark Avens and I live with my 3 biggest fans…My wife Nicole a Holistic Nurse Practitioner, my 4 year old daughter Julia and my 6 year old son Mason. They are all part of my motivation and encouragement team every single day…
We are an active family with tons of energy. Both Mason and Julia play soccer and I’m lucky to coach both of their teams. Living by the beach keeps us active with surfing, biking and walking our big beast of a dog Sully.
My wife and I are strong willed and we both live by what we preach when it comes to living healthy and staying active. We thrive on helping people live better lifestyles.
But, let me pull back the curtain and start from the beginning….
My passion for Golf began when I use to sleigh ride down the hills of Shinnecock Hills Golf Course in Southampton, NY in the winters.
Shortly after, at the age of 12 I started taking lessons and playing golf at a public course right down the road where I lived in Watermill, NY. That was my true beginning. My background started in physical therapy. Where I helped many golfers with the pains and limitations they experienced while playing golf.
Here’s where it gets interesting…in 2002 after marrying my beautiful wife Nicole we moved to Jacksonville, Florida. Where the heart of golf is!
As a recreational golfer and physical therapist assistant I saw a missing link between what a golfer needed to improve their game and improve their overall body performance.
And Get this….
In golf the thought of exercising, training didn’t exist, most golfers were afraid to train and hurt themselves. Every single golfer was doing the same workout. It was shocking! The way I saw it, without fitness there was no game. By that I mean without targeting the specific fitness needs to improve your game and well being you would just be spinning your wheels.
I saw the frustration in golfers that suffered from back pain, sore joints, tight hips and achy feet from playing a sport they loved so much. I knew I had to do something.
Why am I telling you this? Because I dedicated my life to helping golfers gain the physical fitness, strength and higher level of playing that they all desire.
I began combining the experience I acquired from physical therapy and integrated the practice of personal training and merged the two together that resulted in mind blowing success.
