At coachseiji.com, we don't believe in pain for pain's sake, but we do believe in having coaches who know what it's like to feel the pain of a twenty-four-hour race, an Ironman, or even just a hard workout.
Like Coach Seiji, Coach Sean Ahmadi offers just that: experience in coaching and racing.
Sean's athletic life began by playing soccer in the streets. Once Sean realized he preferred individual competition, he found his way to the same sports he now coaches.
Sean's clients range from beginner to elite, but there is one constant for all of them: the pride Sean feels about coaching them. When asked to list his coaching accomplishments, Sean placed coaching a woman to complete her first triathlon right next to coaching an experienced, first-place mountain bike race winner.
All of Coach Sean's athletes benefit from his personal involvement in the logistics of their training plan, as well as the non-scientific elements of training: motivation, attitude, and the balancing act each athlete must perform in order to work, live, and train.
Whatever your athletic goals may be, Sean can help you achieve them. To find out more, contact Sean today.
