Shannon Pitcock, CPT, NBC-HWC

Certified Personal Trainer

Shannon Pitcock is a seasoned wellness professional with over 14 years of experience helping individuals discover a joyful and sustainable relationship with movement. As a Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach, Shannon is passionate about the “Karuna”philosophy—bringing heart, empathy, and compassion to every personal training session. She believes that fitness should be a celebration of what your body is capable of today, rather than a punishment for what you ate yesterday.

Throughout her extensive career, Shannon has cultivated an inclusive, weight-neutral approach to fitness. She specializes in creating safe, supportive environments where clients can build functional strength and confidence without the pressure of traditional “diet culture.” With additional expertise in Senior Fitness and Cancer Exercise Recovery, Shannon is dedicated to making movement accessible, empowering, and safe for every body.

Shannon’s coaching style is a blend of evidence-based behavior change and spunky motivation. She loves helping her clients dismantle the “shoulds” of the fitness world and replace them with movement that actually feels good. She is a firm believer that the best way to reach your goals is through a shame-free, individualized approach that honors your unique lived experience and pace.

A true Phoenix native, Shannon was born and raised in the Valley of the Sun. When she’s not working with clients, she is likely leaning into her creative side. As a small business owner, she enjoys spending her time creating fun and unique items for her retail brand. She believes a well-lived life is all about balance, creativity, and finding movement that makes you feel vibrant.
