“I love the staff and students at The Hot Room so much that I wanted to be more integrated into the community and give back to a place that gives me so much! Teaching is one of my favorite parts of my week!”
Shawn had no idea what Original Hot Yoga was when she bought a Groupon for another studio in 2014 after the birth of her third child. She wasn’t sure if she loved the yoga but she liked how she felt. Shortly after she started the studio closed and she found out about The Hot Room from another student. Shawn was wowed from the moment she walked in the door – such a beautiful facility, amazing staff, friendly yogis and that hot room ! Her real love affair began with yoga that day! A few years later she signed up for teacher training and now teaches her beloved 90-minute Original Hot Yoga class.

Favorite posture?
I love so many postures -it’s difficult to choose! One that I look forward to every class is Standing Separate Leg Stretching Pose. It’s a nice break after two intense postures that raise your heart rate. It feels great to let my head hang and feel my spine stretch while actively continuing to engage my thighs, glutes and biceps. It recharges me for Triangle Pose!
What do you do outside of the studio?
I love hanging out with my family. I’m married to my high school sweetheart -Sean (yep, same name -does it get any cheesier?). We have three crazy kids and two crazier dogs. We like to go on adventures of all sorts whether it’s a walk, drive or flight away.
Guilty pleasure?
Chocolate. Is there another possible answer to this question?
