Teacher Spotlight - Shannon Mahaney was born and raised in the Sunshine State of Florida. She began her yoga journey in 2015 as a way to de-stress from working in the advertising industry. She moved to the beaches of South Carolina in 2017 and continued growing her yoga practice. She fell in love with the practice. She enjoyed prenatal yoga classes during her pregnancy in 2020 before the world shut down. After having her son, her yoga practice changed in ways that inspired Shannon to get certified to teach. Shannon found IYT in 2023 after moving to the Easley area. She loved the community feel of the studio. In April of 2025, Shannon received her 200 Hour Teacher Training Certificate. She teaches Yin Yasa Yoga on Saturday mornings.
When Shannon isn't teaching or taking yoga classes, she works for 105.5 The Roar, as a traffic Director. In her free time, Shannon likes to knit, read, go antiquing, and hike with her husband and their son, Grant. She loves a good afternoon nap with her Boston Terrier, Gus.
