A Note About Cornell Cornell Performance Academy isn’t your average commercial gym. We’re a locally-owned, 10,000 square foot athlete-built space committed to providing serious, focused training ground without the gimmicks. Run by Raquel and Michael Cornell—lifelong Hamilton athletes and locals (Michael is a retired professional football player)—Cornell Performance Academy was built to give back to the community that raised us. Our space is for those who take their training seriously and want to train alongside like-minded, purpose-driven individuals. We built Cornell to be Hamilton’s uncrowded training ground—no trends, no waiting for racks, no fluff. Just strength, coaching, space, and community. This is where the relentless spirit of Hamilton lives on. Train beside those who mean it. Welcome home.
