Hello, we are Aida & Ronda 

 
An Airway Coach is a professional dedicated to helping people breathe better while they sleep. 🌙

 

After decades of witnessing and treating the consequences of dysfunctional breathing—fatigue, poor sleep, airway collapse, and compromised health—we have come together with a shared mission: to help people recover the ability to breathe well again.

 Through education, practical training, and personalized guidance, Airway Coaches empower individuals to restore healthy breathing patterns, strengthen their airway, and experience the restorative sleep the human body was designed for. 

Aida Galan, DMD

Aida M. Galan DMD was born and raised in the Republic of Panama. With over 20 years of experience in the dental field, one can say Dr. Galan has practically dedicated her life to dentistry. Dr. Galan began her career in dentistry in 1989 and worked hard to put herself through school until she graduated from the University of Pittsburgh, School of Dental Medicine in May of 2002. Dr. Galan takes continuous educational courses to keep herself at par with the ongoing developments in the field of Dentistry. One of her goals is to enhance people’s lives by creating beautiful smiles through proper coaching and in the most conservative and affordable way. She believes that this in turn will help her patients regain control of their oral health, as well as, increase their confidence and self-esteem.

Dr. Galan has been very dedicated to providing dental care for children early in her career. She was awarded for her leadership in community service for children while pursuing dental school. A mother today, Dr. Galan understands the patience that is required to interact with children and most importantly, to teach them good oral habits at an early age. Her love for children has led her to expand dental services to them by providing early interceptive orthodontics.

Dr. Galan has been involved in many community services and has volunteered in many programs such as Dentist with a Heart, Special Olympics, and others. Her love and passion for dentistry has taken her abroad to countries in order to provide dental services to patients who have no means of getting dental treatment.

Closer to the home she has worked as a dentist for non-profit organizations such as The Health Trust and Tri-city Health Center, where she provided dentistry to the underserved communities. At the Health Trust, where she worked for over 2 years, she focused on children from the ages of 0-18 years of age. Today, she is a respected member of her profession and plays an active role in providing dental services to the community. Dr. Galan is a member of the American and California Dental Associations as well as the Santa Clara County Dental Society.

Ronda Holman, DA

Ronda Holman is the author of the American Dental Association recommended “Breathe Better while you Sleep” a recovering mouth breather and floppy tongue owner guide  and Co-Founder of Airway Coach, a groundbreaking initiative that empowers individuals to improve their breathing during sleep through simple, daily protocols and systems.  

She has worked tirelessly to educate patients and the public about the harmful effects of mouth breathing on overall health. Ronda’s passion for airway health stems from her own journey. Growing up with an undiagnosed airway disorder, she struggled with upper airway resistance syndrome until the age of 37, following extraction-retraction orthodontics at age 12. Faced with declining oral health and nightly breathing challenges, she made a life-changing decision to prioritize her airway health—and now dedicates her mission to helping others do the same. 

 Ronda is committed to raising awareness about the biomechanics of breathing and the profound consequences of over-breathing and mouth breathing on sleep quality. She helps others understand the critical difference between merely surviving through sleep and truly thriving with restorative sleep. Her work bridges the connection between airway health, breathing, and the root causes of many non-communicable diseases, empowering individuals to advocate for their health and well-being.
