Ash’s personal journey of yoga and mindfulness began almost simultaneously over 9 years ago in the exploration of optimal health of mind and body. Her practice and teaching now involve letting the practice evolve into whatever it needs to be for her at the time, reflecting constant growth and change.

In 2017 Ash completed Power Living’s 200-hr vinyasa teacher training and in 2019 completed a 50-hr yin consciousness training with Mark Pheely of West Side Yoga. Ash’s self practice and teaching are heavily inspired by her almost daily online practice with Amy Carmody, a strong mindfulness meditation practice, exploration of wellness in all forms, her nursing career, and her new role as a mother. Ash graduated from the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach whilst being mentored by Emily Horn, in February 2023. She also practices monthly at Banyan (Cloud Sangha) with Anne Cushman.

Ash has a deep interest for the contraries and parallels of Eastern and Western philosophy and medicine, she often draws on this in her teaching. Ash’s classes explore her passion for how yoga can provide a safe space for people to discover their self and their own yoga, encouraging students to practice from a place of feeling rather than thinking. 

Ash is a firm believer of making yoga and mindfulness more accessible.
