THRIVE Women Fitness
Specialized coaching for
Perimenopause thru Post-Menopause​
Hi! I'm Shannon, your perimenopause/post-menopausal Master Personal Trainer. For over 30 years, I've trained thousands of women just like you -- struggling with unwanted weight gain, fatigue, demotivation and loss of self-confidence that often starts in midlife and continues throughout the decades. And at age 52, I've personally experienced it. Women are told "that's just the way it is now", and lose hope. Wrong!
THRIVING HAS NO AGE LIMIT
I guarantee you CAN improve body composition, lose fat, build bone density, gain lean muscle, and feel more like you again! As a 3x Ironman World Championship finisher, I know it takes more than just a cookie cutter exercise program to get results.
THRIVE fitness clients learn a wholistic way of training, eating, and thinking to enhance your hormonal health.
