About Erika

Erika Shannon is a mentor and movement coach. She helps fitness instructors find their authentic voice as physical leaders, staying in integrity with safe practices while instilling individuality and heart into every class. A fitness instructor herself for 12 years, Erika has been seen as an expert in Good Housekeeping, Glamour, Weight Watchers, FitNation, and other publications, and was a founding trainer on Daily Burn's live streaming fitness show, Daily Burn 365. She has also taught for Equinox, Reebok, Sports Club LA, and SoulCycle. She is certified in Group Exercise  by The American Council on Exercise (ACE), Schwinn Cycling, and Pre/Post Natal Exercise Programming and Design.

A dancer since childhood, Erika also works with performers, helping them connect to movement so it makes sense, feels easier, and gets them more work. Erika's signature online dance basics bootcamp, Don’t Dodge the Dance Call, has been featured in both Backstage, Playbill, and FitForBroadway

Erika holds a B.F.A. in Musical Theatre from The University of Michigan, and danced professionally for over 20 years before turning her attention to teaching, choreography, fitness, and eventually motherhood. Each new skill complimented the previous one, and now, whether she's working online, on stage, or on camera, she takes a well-rounded approach with her clients, building strength, endurance, connection, and confidence in their constant state of forward motion.
