Shannon Lawman

Shannon began her love of fitness through the world of dance. She started dancing at a young age and perfected her skills in all forms of dance, including ballet, pointe, lyrical, tap, jazz and hip-hop. She danced competitively and taught many classes at her local studio.

Shannon received her B.S. in business from the University of Charleston. She began working in her major as an analyst at an oil and gas company where she also met her husband. Together they have three children that have been her life and focus for the last 25 years. When the youngest went to college, Shannon decided it was time to get back to doing what she loved.

While fitness has always been a part of Shannon’s life, she really started focusing on strengthening her body and increasing flexibility in 2017 when Pilates Plus opened. She instantly felt at home. She’s taken all forms of classes offered, but Barre class felt like a natural fit. She became certified to teach Barre in 2020 and is excited to teach where she loves to be.

Shannon is also an ACE-certified Group Fitness Instructor, Stages and Stages Beats certified cycling instructor and PAI-certified in Pilates Mat 1 and 2.
