A Unique Philosophy
It’s no surprise that at an early age of nineteen, Nordine pursued health and wellness and made it his passion. As a guide, he will lead you to a better, healthier, and happier life. There’s a lot of information out there on how to reduce stress, get in shape, and be healthy—but what experts have ignored is the deeper inspiration necessary to live a healthy life. Nordine’s teachings will give you a plan that involves more than just diet and exercise. It will empower you to take control of your health once and for all.
One must prepare mentally before embarking on a life-transformation journey. Nordine will help you identify the enduring inner motivation that will keep you working toward and achieving your goals. He will show you how to inspire yourself and everyone around you as “fitness” is not only about being fit, looking good, and feeling great — but also about igniting a flame of inspiration in others.
Nordine knows it can be overwhelming and sometimes discouraging. Like you, he read many books, listened to CDs, gone to transformational seminars, and so on. But he also spent decades studying and researching why people knew what they knew but failed to apply it. Today and — more than ever before — we are facing hard times; fear, doubt, anxiety, and the lack of self-worth are threatening everything we do. As fear takes control, our behavior changes for the worse. We use spiritual substitutes such as comfort eating, alcohol, drugs, and even violence whether it is verbal or physical. We rationalize the things we shouldn’t be doing; we find excuses and we believe in them. This is what he calls — falling into the abyss of a low level of existence.
You must transcend motivation to inspiration by building your self-worth and rising to a higher level of existence.
His Story
Born prematurely in the Saharan desert — in the back of a French Army truck — to illiterate Bedouin parents and in war-torn Algeria, Nordine has overcome insurmountable obstacles to achieve success. He was a sickly infant with a birth weight of two pounds and constantly fell ill. To seek advanced medical care for their newborn, Nordine’s parents moved to France, where he was diagnosed with rickets. They settled in the suburb of Paris, where Nordine spent most of his childhood with the 12 siblings that followed him. Poor health eclipsed a major part of Nordine’s early life, resulting in a weak constitution, which made him an easy target for school bullies.

Nordine is a sought-after speaker, he speaks on the topics of fitness, mindfulness, and emotional clarity at international and national conferences, like the National Institute of Whole Health, The Global Wellness Summit in Italy, and at the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers in Phoenix, AZ, to name a few. His message has resonated with thousands of his clients and businesses. He has been invited to talk to and run retreats by Olayan Group, LA Sports Club, Hilton Resorts, the Gospel Rescue Mission, and the Mental Health Foundation.
