Our Mission
At SHINE, we believe Pilates is more than a workout — it is a transformative practice that strengthens the body, sharpens the mind, and supports lifelong wellness. We are committed to delivering a world-class Pilates experience rooted in authenticity, individualized attention, and exceptional instruction.
Our Members are at the heart of everything we do. We prioritize personal connection, hands-on guidance, and thoughtful form correction to ensure every client feels supported, challenged, and safe in their movement journey.
SHINE honors the full Pilates method as Joseph Pilates intended, offering comprehensive training across all apparatus — including the Reformer, Chair, Tower, Spine Correctors, Barrels, and more. Our expert-level, comprehensively certified instructors are trained to teach the complete system to clients of all ages, abilities, and fitness levels.
Classical Pilates?
Authentic, Classical Pilates
Classical Pilates is the original method, taught exactly as Joseph Pilates designed it—focusing on breath, control, and precise alignment to build lasting strength from the inside out. At SHINE, we honor this tradition with small classes, expert teachers, and authentic apparatus including The Tower.
Unlike fast-paced contemporary Pilates, Classical Pilates prioritizes quality over reps and personalized attention, delivering stronger, taller, and more mobile results in as few as ten sessions. Experience the genuine Pilates difference that transforms your body for good.
Rachel's Story
I am a breast cancer survivor, and my journey over the past several years has been one of the most challenging experiences of my life.
Between 2019 and 2021, I underwent five surgeries, including a mastectomy and hysterectomy, 16 rounds of chemotherapy, 33 radiation treatments, and experienced a blood clot and a pneumothorax. Following cancer treatment, I was also diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, which brought additional medications, side effects, joint pain, muscle tension, and significant limitations in my mobility.
Physically and emotionally, I felt like I had lost so much of my strength and confidence. I was weak, in pain, and struggling to move the way I once had. My emotional well-being was suffering, too.
Then I found Shine Pilates.
Working with Shanna has truly changed my life. I began practicing Pilates three times a week, and although the first week was challenging and I could barely keep up, Shannon met me exactly where I was and helped me progress at my own pace.
Over time, I began to feel stronger. My joint pain decreased, my mobility improved, my posture became better, and, perhaps most importantly, I began to feel like myself again. Pilates has given me not only greater physical strength and freedom of movement, but also a renewed sense of confidence and mental well-being.
Shanna’s knowledge, patience, and genuine care have made an incredible difference in my journey. I especially love the small-group environment, which allows for individualized attention, and the classical Pilates approach.
After everything my body has been through, Shine Pilates has given me a place to rebuild—with strength, grace, and confidence.
I am so grateful I found Shannon and Shine Pilates. It has been an incredibly important part of my healing journey, and I truly feel that it gave me a part of my life back.”
