+ JAMES SONG

HEAD COACH/OWNER/FOUNDER

The lack of coaching resources growing up provided James with the impetus to experience and learn about sports performance early on in his life. To date, James has been a personal trainer and Olympic weightlifting coach for over 5 years. He has coached multiple athletes that went on to set American records (2018 AO Series 3) and is currently a S&C consultant for the local high school football team (West High; Torrance, CA).

James plans to continue his work in sports and performance to help athletes maximize their potential. He hopes to use his knowledge to provide athletes with the safe and effective coaching that was unavailable to him in his early years.
