Previously a stand-up comic, Tony Horton has always been used to proving that he’s worth the limelight.

Born into a military family, Tony had moved a lot as a child with his father serving in the army. His first notable ventures into fitness came when he provided personal training to a professional at 20thCentury Fox, before offering PT services to movie stars and musicians, or representing fitness giants Thighmaster and NordicTrack.
Originally Tony moved to California thinking he’d become an actor. He’d wanted to be a cross between Jim Carreyand Brad Pitt, but has since said things turned out better for him, creating some of the most famous and effective workout programmes available.
Today, Tony Horton is still one of the biggest personalities in fitness. He puts his level of motivation down to loving what he does. At 60 years old, he’s still training and surrounds himself with people equally as passionate in his life.
A world-class motivational speaker, Tony is incredibly active on social media, inspiring others and teaching us all about how to live the best life. Through his books, programmes and events, Tony’s passion and philosophy, combined with his humour, make his message one that not only benefits the world’s future, but entertains us all, too.
