Your complete six-week path
Learn it, use it, review it, then make it fit real life.
Balance Learn is a guided starting course, not a pile of information. Each week gives you a clear lesson theme, practical actions inside Balance, and one review point with Shannon.
WEEK 1Why change feels hard
Understand how your brain uses past experience, set your first Weekly Goals, and begin with a workout and meal-plan starting point you can actually use.
Past experience
What you expect
Familiar choices
↳ New experiences help you learn a different pattern.
WEEK 2Work with your energy
Notice how sleep, stress and low-energy days change your choices. Use the app to keep the next action visible when the week is not ideal.

WEEK 3Build a rhythm that sticks
Use repetition, smaller actions and your surroundings to make training and food habits easier to return to.
Start small

WEEK 4Take the fight out of food

The course lives inside Balance
Your weekly learning and real-world actions stay connected.
The app supports the course rather than replacing it. Course shows what to learn, Home makes the next action obvious, and your plans, Weekly Goals and Feed help you practise it during the week.

Real people Shannon has coached
Different journeys. The same need for a plan that works in real life.
These people were coached by Shannon before Balance Learn. Their experiences helped shape the practical support, shared accountability and weekly adjustment now built into the course.
Shared accountability
Christy and Beck
The sisters each lost more than 10 kg and became stronger. Having someone beside them made the plan easier to return to and helped turn individual effort into shared momentum.
Strength and confidence
Gen
Gen's journey was about more than a visual change. Clear training direction and steady coaching helped her build strength, confidence and evidence that her effort was working.
Eight weeks of steady work
Dani
Dani created visible body-composition progress over eight weeks by staying with the work. Her journey is a reminder that repeatable weeks matter more than chasing a perfect one.
Six weeks of progress
Shane
Shane's front, back and side comparisons show his progress over six weeks of coaching with Shannon.
Individual experiences vary. These are examples of Shannon's previous coaching work and are not promises of a particular result from Balance Learn.
Built by Shannon
Why does change stick for some people, but not others?
I'm an exercise scientist and former gym owner. I've worked with hundreds of clients. Some changed their lives. Others struggled to make it stick. That left me wondering why. Was it really about being lazy or trying harder, or was something deeper going on?
Studying neuroscience led me to look more closely at the habits and automatic responses that shape our everyday choices. I built Balance to help people understand that “autopilot” and practise making changes in their own lives.
Balance Learn is the introductory six-week course, part one of four. It brings those ideas into your training, food and daily routines, with practical actions and support from me.
It's more than a meal plan or workout program. It's knowledge you can put to work, with guidance as you practise. The aim is to build skills you can keep using long after these six weeks.

- You expect results without completing the training and check-ins.
Clear before you join
Questions people usually ask.
What happens after the six weeks?
If you want to continue after Balance Learn, the next course is Balance Master. Over ten weeks, you'll study exercise technique, build your own workout program and design a week of meals. Learn is part one of the four-part journey.
Your upfront Learn package ends after six weeks without automatically renewing. If you chose weekly payments, your membership continues until you cancel. See the payment options below for the terms.
What are the payment options?
Choose how you pay. Pay AUD $149 upfront for six weeks with no automatic renewal, or AUD $24.83 per week with a six-week minimum (six payments, AUD $148.98 minimum total). The weekly option continues at AUD $24.83 per week with the same weekly check-in, workout and food review, app and community access. After six weeks, cancel before your next weekly payment with no additional notice period.
What coaching is included?
For six weeks, you receive one weekly check-in plus a workout and food review with practical adjustments from Shannon. You can also ask questions inside Balance. It does not include instant replies, unlimited daily access or live weekly calls.
Can the meal support fit plant-based eating?
Yes. Meal-plan support can fit plant-based eating and other recorded dietary needs. Plant-based eating is an available support option, not a requirement or the focus of the course.
Can I train at home?
Yes. Choose full gym training, at-home dumbbell workouts, bodyweight sessions with no equipment, or resistance band training. Balance also includes yoga, recovery and mobility sessions. Your starting structure can be matched to the equipment you have available. See the training options.
Is the character the main point of the app?
No. Gamification is there to make consistency more enjoyable. Your workouts, nutrition, progress and community remain the main experience.
