No group classes. No waiting your turn. Every round is built around your experience, your fitness and your goals, so you train hard enough to feel like a fighter and still have time to recover, eat well and actually enjoy the weekend.

Hudson Valley winter
During my stay at Sean and Liz's AirBnB in New Paltz, I felt right at home from the moment I arrived. Their 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.
My personal highlight was the Muay Thai workouts, which were tailored to my level and kept me active in a fun and supportive environment.
Surrounded by nature, I found peace and tranquility that rejuvenated my spirit. Overall, my time at Sean and Liz's place was a perfect mix of comfort, serenity, and adventure.
Every session is built around you. Here's how a typical winter weekend plays out.
The part most training trips skip. Heat, ice, good food and a warm, quiet place to crash.
First timer or seasoned fighter, the weekend is built around exactly where you are right now.
You don't need to get in shape first. You just need to show up.
If you lift, run, climb, ski or play a sport, you already have what it takes. Muay Thai will be the most fun you've had training in years, and because it's private you skip the awkward beginner class and get straight to hitting pads with a pro at a pace that matches your engine.
Bring your game. We'll take it apart and build it back better.
Because it's private, every round targets what will move you forward the most, from the habits your gym never has time to fix to the details that win exchanges.

Pam + JohnPrivate New Paltz weekend
This weekend I had the pleasure of hosting these 2 gems at my home for a private Muay Thai Vacation mini retreat. John had never trained a day in his life but you'd never know it. He jumped right in headfirst and the growth he showed in just a few days was awesome to watch.
And Pam is a total inspiration. Both of them are in their 50s and in phenomenal shape, always looking for that next little bit of growth and always challenging themselves. Of all the ways they could've spent their time together, they chose to come stay with me and get some rounds in at the outdoor gym here in New York.
Each weekend is limited to 1 booking, so the training and the whole experience are built entirely around you.

I had 2 days of 1 on 1 training with Sean. Honestly, he made me realize that I don't suck as much as I think I do and I definitely have more in my tank than I believe. He pushed me & then pushed me more.
They made the weekend super comfortable, accommodating & welcoming! I literally felt like a friend coming to visit & hang out. We did an amazing hike with gorgeous scenery, pizza & wine at Twin Star Orchards and a seafood festival where the vibes were fabulous!
Doing this was something that I wanted to do for a long time & I am so grateful. Thank you Sean & Liz for making this a core memory. New Paltz will definitely be a place I'll be returning to!
It was such a wonderful experience! Sean and Liz made me feel welcome, empowered and motivated. Thank you for being so welcoming and supportive of me and my training journey, and for genuinely caring about me.
Before the retreat, I was in such a tough place. Getting away for a weekend inspired me to get back to training consistently. This has helped with my overall fatigue and gotten me out of a tough place.
It was absolutely amazing!! I am so thankful to have had this opportunity to get away and train for a weekend. It was such a remarkable experience! I hope to attend a retreat in the future.
