My Story
....................
Shannon Hershman, former professional dancer and founder of Be Well My Body™, is a certified Pilates instructor, Fascial Stretch Therapist, and energy healer with over 25 years of teaching experience and more than two dozen certifications. After putting her autoimmune disease into remission through natural methods, she became passionate about helping others become pain-free, mobile, and strong—for life.
Maureen Maher, Award Winning Investigative Journalist
"As someone with chronic pain (and over the age of 50), I was looking for a program that was both challenging and flexible. I also really wanted to find a way to tie it all together with my overall physical and emotional well-being. Working with Shannon—utilizing her vast experience and knowledge, along with her insatiable desire for continuing education in new modalities—has made her much more of a guiding partner than an instructor. From Pilates and Fascia Release to Reiki and Quantum Energy Healing, this isn't just a program; it’s a pathway to a healthier, happier life."
Kat R.
“Shannon has made a life-changing difference in my back pain. After just one session, my disc pain is virtually gone. I’m so grateful to have found her!”

"Shannon has changed my life. When I started my work with her 7 years ago, I was hardly able to walk due to some autoimmune and musculoskeletal issues. Between her extensive knowledge of how the body works, Pilates, foam rolling, nutrition, and myofascial stretching—she has helped me get to a place in my physical wellness that I never thought I could obtain. I recently was able to compete and had one of the highest scores in a rigorous fitness test for an agency employment position. That would not have been possible without Shannon’s support. She listened to any physical concerns I was having with my body and always had an answer of how to remedy it. I could not more highly recommend her.”
Sandy P.
"Shannon has been my Pilates Instructor for about 7 years. During that time she has helped me stay flexible, strong, and balanced. I am now 76 years old and Shannon has helped me through so many issues with my aging body. I have multiple neck and back problems including neck fusion. Shannon always knows what to do when I tell her 'this or that hurts' or 'I can’t move this part of my body today.' She always has multiple movement ideas that will help give me relief or to strengthen a part of my body. She is able to quickly modify any movement if necessary. She is able to adjust every session to my needs not just follow a Pilates routine. I live alone and honestly would not be able to do the things I need to do to keep me living in a second floor walk-up condo, not to mention life in general. I am so grateful to have Shannon as an instrutor and a friend. Without her I wouldn’t be able to do everything I need and want to do comfortably or at all.”
Stephanie M.
"Shannon is one of the best instructors that I've ever worked with. In Pilates, she pays precise attention to form to ensure that I'm moving the right muscles in proper alignment so that I get more out of the movements I do. She has helped me improve alignment, strength and mobility. I also love working with her on Fascia Stretch Therapy™, which feels amazing, and energy healing, which has helped me feel more at peace.”
Darren Starwynn, O.M.D.
"Shannon Hershman is an extraordinary therapist, practitioner and healer. She has an amazing gift of being able to integrate her therapies with energetic healing on the Quantum level, thereby creating high level results for her clients beyond what is expected."
Merrill S.
"Shannon shares my fascination with how the body and mind work and how, when ’tuned’, they work so harmoniously. During Pilates sessions, Shannon has noticed the slightest pull that has created imbalance and has corrected it to make my body free to move again. Shannon is intuitive, dedicated to her craft, and a great communicator."
Sue G.
“Shannon seems to have the ability to perceive and then address a wider range of issues on a deeper level. She addresses issues relating to breathing, body alignment, strength discrepancy, and fascial tightness. The benefit of the energy work has positively effected my experiences in and outside of the Pilates studio in a profound way. These sessions have given me a sense of comfort and self confidence. I’m so grateful to be training with her."
Sophia S.
"Shannon is a remarkable Pilates instructor. I’ve worked with her since 2015. She is a complete professional. Not only is she an expert in exercise, she is a true partner in my physical and emotional well being."

Since starting the Pilates & Mobility sessions, I’ve noticed a big difference in how my body moves and feels day to day. I can swing my leg over my bike with ease now—and I do it with the confidence that my balance is solid. Even personal bathroom care routines have become easier and more comfortable. It’s one of those unexpected improvements that really makes a difference.

I’ve been a client of Shannon’s for about 10 years, and recently we’ve been focusing more on large-range mobility and targeted fascia release work. I’ve been feeling stronger than ever, and this year, on a group vacation to Alaska, I was pleasantly surprised at how easily I could keep up. I paddled across lakes to climb glaciers and hiked through the Alaskan rainforest with no problems at all!
