"...an experience worth having!"
Training with Sean is fantastic. He is highly knowledgeable without a doubt. He is an excellent teacher that communicates the knowledge really well. My wife, who doesn’t train a lot, had a great time learning from Sean. He never her feel diminished for not knowing something or the fact that she was a beginner. For myself, who has a decent amount of Muay Thai experience, Sean adjusted his training to push me and focus on areas that needed adjustment.
I enjoyed his coaching so much that I drove 4 hours to train for 2 hours with him, then drove 4 hours back to where I was staying!
Overall, our time there was wonderful and I would absolutely recommend the experience.

"...at home from the moment I arrived"
During my stay at Sean's in New Paltz, I felt right at from the moment I arrived. His warm welcome set the tone for a cozy and relaxing experience. The room was spacious and inviting, providing the perfect retreat after days of exploring the beautiful surroundings. Surrounded by nature, I found peace and tranquility that rejuvenated my spirit.

"I was looking for a new adventure!"
Years ago, I had studied and trained Qi Gong and Kung Fu but was looking to get out of my comfort zone and I definitely came to the right place.
My weekend consisted of three intense one on one Muay Thai workouts with Sean. An amazing crash course of a completely new fighting style that left me sweaty, bruised and ready for more. Sean’s ability to capture and teach to my level rang every bell. When we weren’t training and sparring, we were hiking and hitting some great food spots surrounded by the perfect backdrop of New Paltz. The onsite AirBnB was spacious, comfortable and complete with everything I needed.
A fabulous weekend that I look forward to repeating!
