Who We Are

FOCUS athletics was created to be a one stop shop to all thing’s fitness, wellness, recovery and nutrition. We believe you will be and feel your best if you work on getting healthy in every area. So, here’s a little insight into how it all started, how we got here, and what our mission is…

2009-2017
WHERE IT STARTED
Daniel Nishikawa co-owner and founder of FOCUS athletics got his start growing up in Hawaii where his father instilled in him a passion for health and fitness at an early age. He went on to get his massage therapy license, bachelors in kinesiology, many other certifications, and eventually his nutrition degree which landed him in Orange County. He went on to be the number two trainer in the country for 24 Hour Fitness in 2015, and eventually after meeting his wife Taylor, decided to go out on his own privately once they married in 2017.

HOW FOCUS BEGAN
After Taylor and Daniel started FOCUS athletics in 2017, they started to see a need in the health and fitness industry. It wasn’t just people desiring to get into shape, but there was a need for education on why recovery and nutrition also play such a huge role in you being the healthiest and strongest version of yourself. For every age, every lifestyle, every goal, it can all be different, but the need is the same.

HOW THE DREAM TEAM GREW
When the world shut down in 2020, we had to pivot as to how we could help others. We created a home gym where others could feel safe and have the privacy desired while training and getting healthy. That is where the idea of our private training pods were born! In those years we refined the dream of what FOCUS athletics could be and really started to pray for God to open the door to make it all possible.

THE WAITING
We started to pray, plan and really search for the right way to expand and help more people in our community. We knew that what we desired FOCUS to be was going to be and look a lot different from what was already in the fitness and wellness space. But that is what made us excited and gave us that drive to keep pushing forward. Lots of no’s, closed doors, doubts and rejection, until one day God threw that door wide open.

FOCUS ATHLETICS FIRST LOCATION
From the right partners being brought into our life, to the right building lining up, contractor, equipment, trainers and so much more falling into place. We officially opened our doors on September 16th! We are so excited to help those in our community get stronger the right way, dial in the nutrition and recovery aspect and feel the best they can feel no matter what age or stage of life. God willing one day we will be able to help many more all over the world. This is just the beginning…

Core Values

COMMUNITY

At FOCUS we believe in creating a space that is comfortable for all. Socialization and connection plays a huge part in our well-being and overall health. Every detail in our building was designed to fit all ages and demographics, so that anyone that walks through our doors feels comfortable.

HEALING

No matter what age you are it is never too early or too late to get strong and healthy. We believe it’s important to focus on healing your body in every area so that you can feel and perform at your best. Fitness, nutrition and recovery all play a huge role in making that possible.

MOVEMENT

We put a strong emphasis at our facility on functional training styles and movements. Training your body to move the right way, so that you can do what you desire to do in your everyday life. We don’t believe in a quick fix, we believe in making lifelong and life changing habits.
