Candice has tremendous energy and light as a teacher. She overflows with creative inspiration and joyous expression, holding space for each student to find the magic of their own personal experience, while drawing together the community feeling of the whole class. Each time I step into class with Candice I know I am going to have a vibrant and deep transformation of spirit and body. Because of Candice's support and guidance I have challenged myself further in my practice and watched as the confidence and delight of her presence influences other parts of my life. - Student, Portland, OR, USA Read More Testimonials

Welcome to SHiNE Fitness! My name is Candice Schutter, and I have been teaching fitness and dance since 2001. My ongoing classes and transformational retreats focus on movement as a vehicle through which joy and liberation can be found. When the body feels free to express the truth of who you are, fitness just happens. Your hips shake, your spine unjulates, your muscles power your will, and you can’t help but smile. We utilize music as a powerful lubricant for our dance - offering an invitation for strength, flexibility, and magnificence in the body, heart, mind, and spirit. My motto is: move towards what moves you. As a dancer, life coach and empowerment trainer, everything I offer is intended to inspire and ignite each student’s unique and individual way of moving through life. After nearly a decade of teaching dance, I am certain that movement is a vehicle for transformation on every level. Movement reminds me of the limitless pathways available, not only in the body – but in the heart and mind as well. Join me and experience lasting fitness!
