Meet Your Instructor: Shannon Tietz

Shannon Tietz has been a certified fitness instructor for 25+ years. Her love of movement began with classical dance at an early age, evolved into hip hop, and later led her to full-contact kickboxing in her 20s. Teaching group fitness has been a staple of her life for decades and she continues to inspire others even after two knee replacements (2018,2025), proving that resilience and smart movement matter at every stage.

Shannon is married, has three kids, and lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Her family motto is, “We are on this earth to serve others,” and Shannon’s way to serve is through health and fitness.
