those who know me know that my heart is pointed towards harm reduction, & i'm just so happy to help in this small way as a stepping stone in that direction

a great carousel for those who feel they're just gettint started! ✨️

- - - • - - -

if these little tips & tricks still feel like a lot to work on without support, i do still have a couple spots in the AWC, & 1-2 spaces for in-person training with a virtual add-on option

my goal for the last long while has been to pump out a lot more free content across a few platforms - this is gonna take me a bit with everything going on 🧠 but i'm gently chipping away at it

just a friendly friday nudge...

that if you've been waiting for things to 'settle down' before you hire a coach, start a fitness journey, start taking control of your eating etc..

you're insinuating that once things ramp up again, your healthy habits will be the first thing to go

life is always going to be busy, a bit stressful.. a little hectic perhaps

but building healthy, sustainable habits will make your life easier, not more challenging 🫶

i've got space for one, potentially two in-person clients,

& room for three virtual clients

[ not a marketing tactic, just an intentional roster cap ]

now enrolling clients for Sept 1st & Sept 15th start

shoot me a msg if you're ready to get started ✨️

if you've been waiting for an opening for in-person work, now is the time! my personal training is typically air-tight, but i've had a couple of clients graduate from in-person to virtual (the AWC) •.

so looking forward to connecting with you, whoever you are 🥰

see you on the other side, lovelies ☀️

this RARELY happens ⬇️

i've found room to take on a NEW personal training client!!

i'm truly blessed in saying that my client retention is pretty air-tight, therefore it's only on the rare occasion that i have space to add someone to the roster.

EXCITED to find out who this is going to be 🥹

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

i'm on the hunt for a new client who:

🦭 isn't hyperfocused on rapid weight loss & aesthetics
[ you can have these goals of course, but i'm not a weight-loss coach *or* a bikini coach ]

🦭 is excited about getting stronger & more confident in the gym

🦭 has followed along a bit & catches the overall vibe that me & my baby biz have sent out into the universe

🦭 is looking to learn how to stack healthy habits for a more vibrant, energized life

🦭 is committed to diving in & taking the time ~ we require a minimum three month commitment

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

this package includes:

1×/week in-person Personal Training
+ Virtual Coaching

[ weekly, custom built fitness programming, step goals, nutrition coaching & more ]

this morning, i did my second interval jog as part of my post-concussion rehabilitation

2:1 rest/work ||| 60 sec walk / 30 sec jog
10 cycles, 5 mins of jogging total
approximately 18 minutes
just shy of 2km

with. no. *major*. increase. in. symptoms.

👏👏👏

this might read like literally nothing,
but i promise you,
this is big stuff.

it's been over two months since i've felt this excited about movement ~ recognizing that this whole process is typically two steps forward, one step back ~ i'll take this win gently & continue upwards & onwards

now to celebrate with a trip to the rmt,
& then a big afternoon basking at the river like a lizard under a heat lamp 🦎☀️

making the most out of your experience in the gym

while i could go on & on ... & on about this
[ 'cause i love it ]

here are a couple juicy little tidbits for you ♡

there's so much sludge out there overcomplicating what it means to be 'successful in the gym' - regardless of your goals & intentions

if you're reading this & thinking, 'wow, maybe having a coach would feel really good' - i'm here to remind you that i'll be reviewing applications for my virtual coaching space, the Ashwood Wellness Collective, again starting May 15th

link in my bio to apply ~ no commitment required.
it's important to me that we're a good fit!

xo, ashley

a couple of notes . • 📝

VIRTUAL
🦋 currently *not* accepting new clients •• will re-open registration by May 15th 🤞

IN-PERSON PT
🦋 books still *closed* •• grateful for my incredible PT crew

GROUP FITNESS
🦋 i've made the tough decision to *not* launch one last series for my Guts, Glutes & Glory + Cardio Core classes ••
having that extra 4 hrs of afternoon space will hopefully make it easier for me to consistently be in physical therapies for a quicker, more efficient recovery 🤞

• • • • • 🦋 • • • • •

🦋 our Foundations of Health Challenge crew are killiiiinnnngggg it - SO much fun to witness!!

🦋 AWC virtual crew are working hard & getting results 💪 as per usual

🦋 in-person PT is a roster full of the coolest people & watching them challenge themselves & grow is such a blessing
