TEACHING STYLE:

My style incorporates both fun and a judgement-free space for everyone to exercise.

I can’t decide! My playlists tend to include a little of everything.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SHANNON

I love exercise and fitness, but when I am not in the gym you can find me being active outdoors or around the house. I enjoy being in the sun at the beach, running and doing yoga, spending time with friends and family, home projects, reading, and movies. I also enjoy exploring and traveling.
