Comedy Coach Shannon Gettins

comic.    Writer.    coach.

Shannon has been a force in the Stand Up Comedy world since coming on the scene in 2001.  Early on she worked at the Laugh Factory during the day and performed at clubs all over LA at night.  Eventually getting into corporate comedy and booking gigs across the country.  Industry professionals describe Shannon as an "early Ellen DeGeneres."  (emphasis on the "early" part)   Her timing and quick witted comedic style connects with audiences of all ages.  She has opened for Paul Reiser, Felipe Esparza, Jon Dore, and featured for Gabriel Iglesias and Erik Griffin just to name a few.  

Early on, Shannon found a passion for teaching.  Helping other comics with punch-up, then managing and teaching at Judy Carter's Comedy Workshops, teaching her own private and group comedy classes, and eventually running Flappers Comedy University in Burbank.  She now focuses solely on private stand up writing sessions for beginning comics to headlining comedians, professional speakers, and CEO’s around the world. 

Her work has received rave reviews in the Examiner and Wall Street Journal online. She was a corespondent for Refused TV, she's a cast member on Beachbody's home fitness program P90X3, and is a co-host on the Sing-Talk Podcast.

When she’s not teaching, writing, or fostering rescue animals you can find her at her home in LA.  Hanging with her husband or talking quantum entanglement with their goats, dog or rabbit.  If she's not there, please call Keith Morrison.
