Shannon is currently accepting new clients at Wise River Rolfing. She is a Certified Rolfer and graduated from the Ida Rolf Institute in Boulder. Shannon practices with intuition and skill, guided by assessments, her heart and strong but gentle listening hands to guide you toward more ease and alignment in your body and thus your life.
She has her BS in Environmental Science and Policy, moved on to get her Masters in Education and taught 3rd and 5th grade for 7 years. She loves to learn and share what she's experienced and learned with others. There is certainly an element of education/teaching that happens in the Rolfing process that is part of her passion, helping folks find new ways to inhabit their bodies that support them
.
She's been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2010 and also as an artist who created a production pottery business. She found Rolfing due to an overuse injury to her shoulder and was searching for a different way to be in the world. Rolfing shifted things physically and figuratively in her life and she decided this was the path forward.
She has training in Cranial Sacral, is a Reiki Master, studied Anatomy Trains, and pelvic focused work. She's engaged with martial arts over the years, pilates, strength training, yoga. She's studied non-violent communication is working with a self empowerment group for marginalized communities in her area called PAC ME. She continues to produce pottery but only as fundraising for local non-profit organizations that need financial support.
In her non Rolfing time, she enjoys 5 Rhythms dance, clay sculpture, walking outside (particularly in nature with Mt. views), being with her 3 cats, saunaing, ocean dips, networking and connecting with community, gardening and sometimes, just laying doing nothing.
