About Hannah:

Hannah Corbin is an internationally recognized fitness instructor, dancer and founding instructor at Peloton, a digital fitness company. In 2018, during the height of her fitness career, Hannah was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease – an autoimmune condition and the most common form of hypothyroidism or underactive thyroid disorder.

Despite her active lifestyle, Hannah experienced extreme fatigue, weight gain and difficulty juggling her daily routine of teaching back-to-back fitness classes. After months of struggling with symptoms, she was referred to an endocrinologist who diagnosed the condition and helped her understand how to manage her autoimmune disorder.

This experience fueled Hannah’s passion for health advocacy, particularly emphasizing the heightened risk of Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) among those with thyroid conditions. She actively educates and supports individuals facing similar health challenges, fostering a community of "autoimmune warriors" and promoting proactive healthcare strategies.

Alongside her advocacy work, she continues to inspire through various Peloton classes including cycling, stretching, barre, Pilates, strength training, and dance cardio. Before joining Peloton, Hannah trained at the prestigious Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in New York City. Today, she is auditioning for Broadway roles again and actively sharing her lifestyle content on Instagram and TikTok.

Hannah is of Mexican and Puerto Rican descent. Originally from Portland, OR, she is now based in New York City, where she lives with her husband, John, and their two Bernadoodles, Juan and Cholula.
