"Matau pushed his powers to their limit, forcing the air around him to swirl violently. Suddenly, he was in the center of a whirlwind which sucked the breath from his lungs."

Matoran Universe
In the Matoran Universe, Air is often represented by the Matoran prefix Le- as well as the color green.
- Le-Matoran represent the Element of Air. Le-Matoran also contain a very minuscule amount of elemental Air energy, to the extent that they are extremely athletic and nimble. All Matoran, Toa, and Turaga of Air are male.
- Toa of Air possess the Elemental Power of Air, allowing them to create, control, and absorb air. Their only real limitation is that when they run out of Elemental Air Energy, they must wait for it to recharge.
- Turaga of Air possess small traces of Elemental Air power.
- Air Gafna can emit pulses of elemental Air energy from their tails.
- Air Burnak can emit pulses of elemental Air energy.
- Skakdi of Air can only access their power if they work with another Skakdi, or if they carry a weapon that allows them to focus their Air power individually.
Examples
- Creating air
- Creating cyclones
- Controlling air
- Manipulating wind currents
- Manipulating/absorbing air to create a vacuum
- Setting a timed air blast (Toa Nuva-exclusive)
- Unleashing an Air Nova Blast (Toa-exclusive)
Combinations
- When combined with the Elemental Power of Water, it can be used to create a storm or a water spout.
- When combined with the Elemental Power of Fire, it can be used to create a tornado of fire.
- Beings other than Toa and the Krahka cannot combine powers of any sort to create a Protodermis cage. As long as each wields a different element, providing that Light and Shadow are not included at the same time, any six Toa can create a Protodermis cage.

Trivia
- Gresh and Vastus received Air powers from the Ignika rather than the power of their native element of Jungle; this was because Mata Nui associated their tribe's color of green with Air, the corresponding primary element in the Matoran Universe.[1]
