About
Welcome to my newly renovated private fitness studio, fully equipped with barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, battle ropes, a cable machine, box jump platforms, and open space for sport-specific training.
As a personal trainer and health & wellness coach, I use science-based methods with smart progressions and regressions so you can start at any fitness level and improve safely.
My philosophy: it’s not just what exercises you do, but how you do them that drives real results.
Together, we’ll focus on:
- Personalized nutrition to build lean muscle and burn fat
- Tailored, method-based workouts
- Tracked weekly progress and proper warm-up/cool-down
- Mindset training and lifestyle fundamentals: sleep, nutrition, training, and safety
Think of your body like a garden: give it the right conditions, and it will grow. If you’re ready to commit, I’m here to coach you every step of the way.

Sean is an outstanding personal coach, and I can’t recommend him enough! After just a few months of training with him, I’ve seen such a clear transformation — not only in my body but also in my confidence and consistency. Every session is well thought out, effective, and tailored perfectly to how I’m feeling that day.
What truly sets Sean apart is his reliability, flexibility, and genuine care for his clients. He always works around my schedule and makes sure I get the best workout possible, no matter what. As a woman, I also want to highlight how safe and comfortable I feel training with him. Sean is incredibly respectful, professional, and kind — someone you can completely trust to focus on your goals and well-being.
If you’re looking for a coach who truly listens, adapts, and brings out your best in every session, Sean is the one. He’s not just a great trainer — he’s the kind of coach who makes you actually look forward to every workout. (如果你在找一个值得信任又专业的私人教练,Sean一定是最好的选择!)

Coach Cruz is an excellent trainer. Hes been helping me build skills in calisthenics, Ninja Warrior training, and advanced mobility work. We meet every two weeks, and he provides personalized workouts through an app to keep me progressing between sessions. Hes friendly, knowledgeable, and supportive, and his coaching has been a great fit for my goals. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced and encouraging trainer.

Sean is AMAZING! I started going to Sean when I had really tight upper back/neck/shoulder muscles that were incredibly weak. I told him I wanted to strengthen them while also being mindful of the pain I experienced in that area while doing physical activity. We came up with a plan that combined strength training and physical therapy exercises that worked out great for me! Definitely work with Sean if you want someone professional, attentive, and knows their stuff!

Sean provides a thorough, intensive and specifically individualized approach for each of his clients. He explains the purpose of each exercise in relation to achieving your individual goals. The workouts are INTENSE in the long run, but he slowly builds up your confidence and stamina appropriately. I’ve been training with Sean for months and I look forward to training with him in a calm, friendly and nonjudgmental environment twice a week. I’ve seen visual improvements to my body and overall muscle strength. I’m more defined and I’m losing weight at a steady and healthy pace. At the beginning, I could only lift fifteen pound weights and now I can lift 40 pounds in addition to 100 POUND SQUATS!!! If you are looking for a dedicated and friendly trainer who displays the results you’d like to achieve…you can just turn to Sean. He’s also very flexible with his schedule if you need to switch times or days. He makes time for you and is always punctual. Highly recommended from a mother of three who wants to lose weight and increase muscle mass! Seriously, highly recommended! Joy S.

I'm really enjoying working with Sean at Foundation Fitness (as much as one can love pushing your body and sweating a ton)! He's patient, professional, and thorough. The vibe at the studio is chill and collegial, with everyone working on their own workouts. As a newbie to working out, I'm learning a lot and getting great value from my investment.
