Strength Training & Wellness Coaching
Build Muscle. Improve Metabolic Health. Prevent Injury.
I specialize in designing gentle but effective strength training programs for people of all ages — including those with chronic conditions, injuries, or pain.
For individuals with Type 2 Diabetes: Research shows that increasing muscle mass through strength training can improve insulin sensitivity and potentially reverse disease progression.
For peri- and post-menopausal women: Resistance training is essential to preserve muscle mass, boost metabolism, and prevent falls. I’m passionate about making strength training less intimidating and more accessible.
All sessions are 1:1 and tailored to your goals, whether you're a beginner or getting back into a routine.
Aquatic Therapy & Wellness Training & Wellness Coaching
Gentle, Low-Impact Rehab in the Comfort of Your Own Pool
Aquatic therapy is one of the most underutilized yet effective rehabilitation tools. Water reduces joint stress and creates a safe space for healing — especially for those recovering from surgery or managing conditions like arthritis, chronic pain, or neurological disorders. I also offer water-based wellness and cardio classes that are fun, uplifting, and a powerful way to build strength and endurance without the impact of land-based exercise.
All services are available in Summerland, Santa Barbara, Montecito, or virtually.

“She made sure to understand and support my personal goals and gave me a personalized program. This is a far superior to the cookie-cutter approach of typical PT.”
— James Young“She’s knowledgeable, encouraging, and has helped me get back into shape with smart, targeted exercises. I also really appreciated how mindful she was of my time and finances, only scheduling sessions that were necessary.”
— Caitlin Trude“After only TWO sessions with Shannon and doing the stretches and exercises she had me do at home, my shoulder was back to full range of motion!! Her hands-on approach during the sessions, combined with an easy routine I could pepper in throughout my busy days, was the key to such quick success.”
