"I love Sean's dedication to yoga and working out, his fun personality and his commitment to helping people" - Ali Kamenova of Ali Kamenova Yoga
"I was in search of inspiration for yoga and pilates and when I found Sean online, I felt like I could accomplish my fitness goals and have fun at the same time! I had taken many different classes in person and online, but never did I connect with someone in such a human way. Sean is kind and thorough, yet silly enough to take your mind off of the many plankorific poses he teaches! His style of teaching is inclusive and full of variety, so you will never get bored. This combination makes for a long-term commitment from his students who keep coming back time and time again. I was so inspired by Sean that I became a yoga teacher myself! Thank you my friend for singing (sometimes literally) your inspirational teachings for all of us to forever enjoy!" - Natalie Cummings, Founder Cardio Yoga Fusion
