Shannon Myers, MS, FAFS
Shannon came to California from Hawaii in 2001. She grew up by the Rocky Mountains in Colorado and has been active and fit since she can remember with a love of nature, animals and a sense of adventure. Her most physical challenge was in Hawaii when she was a stroker for the Napilli’s Outrigger Canoe Club during the 42 mile International Wahine O Ke Kai race. Her lifestyle led her to model for swim & sportswear calendars and catalogs with features in Muscle & Fitness and Oxygen magazines. Amongst her favorite things are outdoor adventures, traveling, golf, dancing, theater, reading and spending time with family, her husband and their chocolate lab, Trigger. The craziest excursion she’s experienced was skydiving and bungee jumping with her brother on the same day in Caines, Australia. Her sense of adventure grew into a passion for movement and her journey into movement science.
Shannon has been a student of movement since 2003 and started her studies in Chain Reaction Biomechanics in 2004 under world renowned physical therapists, Dr. Gary Gray and Dr. Dave Tiberio. She holds a B.S in Kinesiology from California State Fullerton and an M.S. in Applied Functional Science with the Gray Institute. In 2011 she became a Fellow of Applied Functional Science (FAFS) which demonstrates her competency for assessing movement, training and conditioning, rehabilitation and injury prevention.
Her curiosity prompted her to understand movement internally. She has been studying and continues to study the significance of fascia (connective tissue) and its influence on how we move. She began her schooling in manual therapy in 2012 under world renowned movement and manual therapist, Lenny Parracino, CMT, FAFS in Funtional Soft Tissue Transformation (Lenny is the soft tissue therapist for the Clippers). She has since broaden her manual therapy practice by studying Dr. Ida Rolf’s work and has since become a Board Certified Structural Integration Practitioner (soft-tissue therapy).
She’s been running her business, The Athletic Movement Club, at The Pacific Club since October 2004. She works with the members on a daily basis for joint and tissue health with a focus on mobility, 3d movement, strength, performance and manual therapy. She’s has successfully helped members with acute and chronic pain and joint rehabilitation: ankle/foot, knee, hips, back, shoulders, elbows, wrists, neck, etc. and ailments such as SI joint pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, carpal tunnel and tennis/golfers elbow, etc. Shannon is dedicated to learning and growing as a movement practitioner and wants to empower you to be your best, to move better, feel better and perform better.
