Shanna Colmenero is the Co-Owner/Manager of State Of Flow BJJ.
She began her journey near here in Port Huron. After graduating high school she enlisted in the US Navy, serving aboard the USS Germantown, out of San Diego, Ca. As the wars started to escalate she then transitioned to a different career field and became a Hospital Corpsman. It was there that she found her calling. While attached to the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) she earned the coveted Fleet Marine Force warfare device. She trained in multiple combat casualty schools including time spent working the ER at UCLA’s downtown hospital. During her time in the Navy she deployed in service to the GWOT and earned multiple personal, unit and campaign awards. After leaving the service Shanna simultaneously earned her bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Management from Southern Illinois University and her License as an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse). She has lived all over the contiguous United States and has extensively traveled all over the world. Having witnessed the positive effects BJJ has had in all places she has traveled, she wants to see the same thing amongst the kids of Southeast Michigan.
