”I enjoy training with Airion because he truly cares about finding and ensuring I have a solid foundation before moving forward on to the next step. He truly wants me to improve, but not at the sacrifice of safe and correct techniques. He has great knowledge and an even better sense of humor. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who wants to learn and commit themselves to becoming better, stronger and healthier.”

”I have been on my powerlifting journey for more than five years and from the beginning Coach Airion has been instrumental in my growth as a powerlifter and a human being. He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and has the ability to free the potential in me that I didn’t know I had. He builds my programs around my goals and specific needs whether we are working on rehabbing or putting more weight on the bar. He’s teaching me to take care of my body so that it will take care of me. I cannot imagine having anyone else in my corner for this journey. He has empowered me to find my inner strength and let it shine not only on the platform but in life. I would recommend Airion to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, sincere, and deeply passionate coach.”
USAPL M3 Powerlifter
“I started working with Airion in 2016 with basic strength and conditioning. As I progressed, Airion saw my passion for powerlifting and encouraged me. This started me down the road to competing. My original goal was to lose weight and get strong. With Airion’s coaching, I am now not only feeling stronger but am in my 60’s and feeling the best that I have since my 20’s. I compete locally and last year for the first time, competed nationally too and have several state records to show for my efforts.
With Airion, I have learned how to do my lifts correctly…OK a work in progress…and as Airion gains new knowledge and techniques, he always shares his learnings which helps me progress as a lifter. Airion wants to see people succeed. Even when he is not on the “clock”, he will offer suggestions and corrections if he spots something not quite right. He encourages self-diagnosis and with his coaching, I am getting better at recognizing what is off and correcting it during my lifts.
We have been working hard on mobility. Let’s face it, I’m not getting any younger and all those knots and nagging muscles get to protesting over time with the snaps, crackles, and pops going on, Airion helps me work through them. He will evaluate how I am moving, what’s not firing, what’s tight and gives me the tools to use what I need on a day-to-day basis – and it does change daily.
I look forward to what the future holds.”

“Airion has been my coach for the last 4.5 years. When I first met him, I never saw myself as an athlete, and I certainly never imagined sticking to a consistent gym schedule. But under his expert guidance, I found myself training to compete as a powerlifter in my 30s!
Airion has helped me build muscle, lower my body fat percentage by 25%, and improve my form and mobility. But more than that, he has taught me to value my health and feel comfortable and confident in my body.
He's dedicated, hilarious, and insanely knowledgeable, and he has somehow managed to make the gym a place that is both welcoming and empowering. Thanks to his guidance, the way I think and talk about my body has completely changed. I now see myself as an athlete and am proud of what I have accomplished. I look forward to learning and improving even more. Thanks, Airion!”
