Students and clients describe Ashley as a ray of light, her sessions as a transcendent experience, and her hands as safe, strong, intuitive and gentle. > > Ashley is inspired by anatomical alignment and inquiry of the subtle. She creates a multi-sensorial environment where participants have the time and space to feel the internal essence of the poses and to tune the body like a musical instrument. Her yoga classes integrate an Iyengar-based approach, vinyasa flow, meditation, unique (sometimes live) music, mantra chanting, botanical oils, and incense. Ashley’s teaching style is known for being challenging yet serene, calm yet with invigorating precision. She values yoga as a science and linking of the physical, mental, moral, and spiritual well-being of humans. > > Ashley curates special events and ceremonies where she collaborates with Sound Healers, Musicians, Artists, Florists, Botanical Designers, Astrology Readers, Reiki Masters, and Filmmakers who compliment her offerings. Her background is largely rooted in creating artful, unexpected experiences where there is a shift from when the participant enters and exits.
