THE TEAM
Coach Mike
FOUNDER, HEAD MIND-BODY COACH & PLEDGE MASTER
Mike is a lifetime athlete with over 10+ years of experience in men’s coaching, fitness, and holistic training. Certified through ACE (Personal Trainer & Behavior Change Specialist), Yoga Alliance (200-hour Yoga Teacher), and Lotus Palm (Thai Massage), he brings a grounded, integrative approach to mind-body development.
His coaching helps men build strength in body, focus in mind, and connection in life. He blends fitness, mindfulness, breathwork, nutrition, energy work, empathy, and direct talk, all while reminding men not to take life too seriously.
"I started Alpha Qi to build a community of men aligned with my own journey in holistic health and personal evolution. For decades I practiced meditation, breathwork, clean eating, goal-setting, and self-development rituals alone. I realized what had been missing was a community rooted in growth, so I looked for brothers ready to go deeper and explore beyond the gym and beyond the bar. Alpha Qi was born from that vision and continues to evolve from that same foundation of brotherhood and authentic connection."

Transform Lives. Build Brotherhood.
Alpha Qi is building a powerful NYC brotherhood dedicated to healthy minds, strong bodies, and real community. We’re looking for coaches, trainers, and teachers in wellness, fitness, and personal growth, as well as professionals in business, marketing, and operations who align with our mission. If that sounds like you, we want you on the team.
Together we can redefine what modern brotherhood looks like.
Men of Alpha Qi
I've always been a solo animal. After a few weeks in AQ, I found myself opening up about what I was dealing with, disarming at first, but the camaraderie felt genuinely awesome.
Rob
It felt like joining a secret society, a brotherhood where I could be myself and build real connections.
Yuri
I thought I had a good understanding around wellness, but Alpha Qi challenged some of my old ideas and left me with a deeper appreciation for the mind-body connection.
Tim
I think I was more lost than I thought. Having specific goals and rituals has been huge. AQ also brought to light the man I actually want to become.
Drew
The AQ pledging program challenged me, grounded me, and left me feeling more solid in myself.
Tal
I gained tangible life tools, especially around learning to harness habits and goals.
Michael
Meeting weekly kept me accountable, and staying connected between sessions strengthened the sense of brotherhood.
