Personal Trainer Overview
My name is Shannon and I am a certified Functional Movement personal trainer. My 20 year background includes fitness, strength, nutrition and FMS (functional movement system). I have worked with children, adults, older adults, pregnant women, elite athletes, and many others of all shapes, sizes, and experience levels. I bring with my training style a belief that everyone I work with has the potential to achieve their ultimate goals. I find a way to dig deep into the heart of a person and help them find their own desire to succeed. My motto is "helping others help themselves" which to me is the perfect way to describe my intent with each and every client that I have the pleasure of working with.
Training Philosophy
My mind set for personal training comes from a very personal place. I grew up overweight and spent the majority of my childhood and adolescence in a constant struggle with body image. As a former obese child, I have a unique perspective that allows me to relate. I vividly remember the appalling looks and hurtful comments made during that period of my life. Those memories combined with a passion for health, fuel my deep concern and empathy for those that are self-conscious of their body, weight, or overall physical appearance. For over 20 years I have made it a personal mission to "help others help themselves". When you hire me as your personal trainer, you're getting more than a trainer, you're getting a friend that understands your journey.
