KEEGAN PATERSON

"I have been training at Forge for a little over two years now and coming here is consistently the best part of my day! The community here is unreal. I am so grateful that Forge has created such a safe environment so we can all continue to improve ourselves mentally and physically throughout the pandemic.
The past year has been rough, but I’ve had a fantastic year. I finally joined the boxing club after a year and a half of trying to build up the courage. As soon as Forge re-opened, I messaged Hal and went to my first kickboxing class, and he hasn’t been able to get rid of me since. Now I am completely obsessed with Muay Thai and Kickboxing, and I finally feel like an athlete again. I seriously can’t thank Hal enough for all of his help and encouragement over the past year. Huge shout out to all the coaches and the badass women in the boxing club. If anyone is on the fence about trying boxing or kickboxing, just do it! It was the best decision that I have ever made. "
