Shani's Chicago Favorites
When she’s not crushing workouts in the studio, Shani has some fantastic Chicago recommendations to share. Big Jones is her go-to for both bar and restaurant—you’ll find her enjoying great food and good vibes there. For additional flavor and adventure, Chiu Quon in Uptown offers delicious options that keep her exploring the city’s diverse culinary scene. These favorite spots are perfect for celebrating wins and sharing moments with the community she’s built at Studio Fit.
The Studio Fit Experience Through Shani's Eyes
Shani is a passionate advocate for the supportive environment we strive to build. Her reason for encouraging other ladies to join SFC is beautifully simple and powerful:
“The teamwork, challenging yourself…but with support!”
It’s a perfect encapsulation of what Studio Fit Chicago is all about—a place where you’re pushed to grow, challenged to be your best, but never alone in that journey. The presence of supportive women around you changes everything.
A Journey of Strength and Balance
For Shani, joining Studio Fit Pause Freedom has brought a transformation that goes far beyond physical results. Her favorite outcome? “Better mental health was the best result by far!” This speaks volumes about what our community provides. While building physical strength is important, the mental and emotional benefits—the confidence, the sense of belonging, the stress relief, the mental clarity—are often the most life-changing aspects of consistent fitness.
Shani’s story is a reminder that fitness is truly holistic. When you show up for yourself, challenge yourself with support, and become part of a community that believes in you, the benefits ripple through every area of your life. That’s the Studio Fit difference.
What’s on Shani’s Playlist?
Shani’s music taste is refreshingly honest: “Whatever Reyna is listening to…honestly!” There’s something wonderful about discovering music through friends and letting someone else’s energy fuel your workout. Whether it’s a great playlist from her friend Reyna or whatever speaks to her in the moment, Shani knows that the right vibe can elevate any fitness session.
Shani, your honesty about prioritizing mental health and your commitment to showing up for yourself is truly inspiring. You’ve reminded our community that fitness is a tool for wholeness—body, mind, and spirit. Thank you for being such a wonderful example of what’s possible when you find the right support system!

Symptoms of Perimenopause?
We’re Here to Help!
Perimenopause is simply a natural transition in a woman’s life, yet let’s be honest; when hormones start doing the tango, it can feel anything but “simple.” That’s where supportive fitness and nutrition can make all the difference. At Studio Fit Chicago, we help you adapt to these changes so you can keep conquering your day without missing a beat (or a squat).
Nutritional GUidance and Support for Holistic Health
Exercise is important, but it’s only part of the picture. Every woman’s body is different, and so are her nutrition needs. Boost energy, lose fat, build strength, or just feel more in control of your health, we got you. A strong semi-private training program goes beyond workouts. It should include a look at your current eating habits, with practical guidance around nutrient timing, and balanced meal.
