Andrew Balodis (Coach Andrew), BA, NASM-CPT, CES, PES is a Strength, Conditioning and Performance Coach based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and is the owner of TILT Fitness. Andrew works with clients of all ages and physical abilities - from pro/elite athletes and teams to individuals with physical and health challenges. Andrew has been involved in athletics and fitness for most of his life. Andrew played competitive indoor volleyball in high school and university. Andrew then went on to play competitive beach volleyball at the Open/Pro level for 20 years (both in Canada and in the US). Because of injuries sustained over years of training and competition, Andrew sought out a better training approach. Through years of study and experience, Andrew learned that optimizing functional movement is the foundation and key to physical fitness and peak performance. Now retired from competition, Andrew works with others to help them achieve their own optimal “lifestyle athleticism”.


Dr. C. Gus Tsiapalis (Dr. Gus) has been in professional practice for over 25 years, serving thousands of families now in South Florida, and originally in Vaughan and the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. Dr Gus completed his Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of Western and he earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in 1995. Dr Gus shares with many people that he didn't choose the field of Chiropractic but rather it chose him, as he was forced to stop playing professional beach volleyball - after being diagnosed with a rare form of metabolic muscular dystrophy. This led him to Chiropractic, which changed his life and has been his passion since. Dr Gus' love for beach volleyball brought him back to coach, leading to support coaching Canada's 2012 Olympian Beach Volleyball players Binstock and Reader, and Canada's 2016 Olympian Beach Volleyball players Binstock and Schachter. He also brought his love for the sport to the Milton Ontario youth community to help introduce young athletes to beach volleyball, as President, Beach Director and Head Coach of Milton Edge Youth Volleyball Club for 6 years. Dr Gus is also a proud husband and father of 4 children, all living the Chiropractic lifestyle, adjusted since birth.
