about me

Hi, I’m Ashley! I’m a little bit yin and a lotta bit yang :)

After a 19 year journey studying martial arts, as a student, teacher and at the international competition level, I was in search of something beyond physically pushing my body to the limit every day. I was looking for balance and self care. My yoga journey began when I accompanied a girlfriend to a Vinyasa class. Having only been to one yoga class years before that, I had no idea what to expect. The class brought me the perfect balance between challenging myself and finding peace, contentment and self-care. After exploring a variety of classes and styles, I found myself deepening my Vinyasa practice.

A teacher at heart, I wanted to share the benefits that I received from yoga with those around me. I completed my 200-hour Flow Yoga Teacher Certification at Yoga Source in Los Gatos and have over 500-hours of total training. I am also in pursuit of my NASM Personal Trainer Certification.

I enjoy offering challenging, yet compassionate classes where I encourage everyone to listen to their bodies and move mindfully. I offer different pose variations which makes my classes accessible to all levels. My goal when teaching on the mat is to help bring a balance between strength, flexibility and focus in a safe and nurturing environment, all while having fun. We all have different intentions when stepping onto the mat, but whatever that intention is, I want everyone to feel a sense of belonging and better walking off the mat than they did when they walked on.
