Sheila Cordaro is a fitness specialist, healthy-living enthusiast, and entrepreneur. She is the dynamic, driving force behind COR FIT. She has been voted “Best Personal Trainer” by readers of Arlington Magazine, Arlies, and the Sun Gazette several times in the previous 15 years. Readers of the Sun Gazette have named her fitness company, COR FIT, as “Best Fitness Center.” She was also Voted “Top Personal Trainer” by readers of Arlington Magazine in 2021, 2023, & 2024.
Sheila founded Cordaro Fit®, otherwise known as COR FIT (formerly FIT 4 MOMS), in 2006. She aspired to make standard boot camps fun and easily accessible for new moms. In addition to adult workouts, FIT 4 KIDZ was launched in 2009 to keep children active, fit, and happy. Thanks to its success, Sheila created a boys’ running program called BOYS GOTTA RUN!®️ for 3rd-5th grade boys. Young boys are impressionable, encourageable, tend to have a short attention span and are full of excess energy. She founded BGR! to keep her son active before and after school so that he could sit and pay attention in school. As parents we teach by example but sometimes miss the important and necessary conversations about how to be a good citizen and a good person. In this program we discuss pillars of character such as Integrity, self-control, conflict resolution, willpower and sportsmanship.
In addition to developing their emotional and social skills, the program trains Endurance, Agility, Speed, Strength, Core conditioning, and stretching. These skills are all achieved through games and play. Practices are met before or after school. Studies show that exercise encourages the brain’s building blocks of learning.

“The more neuroscientists discover about this process, the clearer it becomes that exercise provides an unparalleled stimulus, creating an environment in which the brain is ready, willing, and able to learn.”
