Expansive Strength and Fitness 189A Cedar Street, Somerville, MA 02145

"I’ve been working with Shannon for years, both in-person and for a time remotely (hello COVID closures). Shan’s helped me keep on track and in shape through COVID, bomb-proof my legs for a bucket-list ski trip, and prepare for and recover from shoulder surgery. She’s been endlessly creative and adaptable – creating workouts that are tailored to specific goals and needs, and making adjustments on the fly if something isn’t working or she notices glitches in your form. It is so much easier to push myself or do something outside my comfort zone because when she says “you can do this!” I know I can trust her judgement."

"Shannon is the best trainer in town! I love her small group strength and conditioning classes."

"Shannon helped me rebuild my strength and endurance after my body had turned to mush during Covid shutdowns. She is attentive, intuitive, and deeply knowledgeable. Her approach is to meet you where you are (without judgement), listen to where you want to go, and then patiently (and safely) help you meet those goals."

"Shannon's workouts have changed my life. COVID turned my day job into a series of online meetings. Along the way, I trashed my body (I think I averaged 600 steps a day, if that). Thanks to Shannon's patience and expertise, I have fully recovered my mobility and built strength that I didn't even know I had waiting for me! She's always thinking about how to help me safely develop functional endurance without compromising on having fun. If you're ready to prioritize your health, you could not do better than to work out with Shannon."

"Shannon is very experienced, extremely knowledgeable, focused, professional, respectful, kind, enthusiastic, and most of all, hilarious. I’ve been training with her for several years and couldn’t recommend her more."
