Trainer Ashley Martinez, In person/online/on-demand

🎂 Birthday Deal Week Is HERE!
This week is about more than celebrating another trip around the sun, for CG. It’s about celebrating the people who make this community so special and giving YOU an opportunity to share something that can genuinely change someone’s life.

This birthday week is especially meaningful to me because it gives me a way to honor my mom and the impact she had on my life, especially the time we shared together at camp ❤️

I can’t share all the details just yet… BUT I can tell you this:

🎁 There’s a awesome opportunity coming to get someone you care about involved in the CG experience.

So start thinking about who you want to share it with. A friend, spouse, coworker, neighbor, family member, or someone who has been saying they want to get back into a routine.

Help me honor my mom by helping me share the gift of movement, accountability, confidence, and community. 💜

More details coming VERY soon!

🎂 Birthday week. Big things are coming. And I’d love for you to be part of it.
Keep an eye out for the details, and start thinking about who you’d LOVE to bring into this community. See you out at camp!

🎂 3 DAYS UNTIL CG’S BIRTHDAY DEAL.

If you’ve commented on one of my workout posts, told me you need to get back into a routine, or have a CG friend who has been trying to get you to a workout for what feels like 100 years… September 2 is the date to remember!

Comment BIRTHDAY, and I’ll make sure you get the details.

🎂 CG IS TURNING 18.

If you’ve seen my workout posts and thought, “I really should try that sometime,” put September 2 on your calendar. Our birthday month is almost here, and this is a great time to finally see what CG is about.

Comment BIRTHDAY or message me and I’ll make sure you get the details when the deal opens.

Did you know that the biggest compliment you can give me as a trainer isn’t telling me you loved a workout. It’s trusting me with someone you love. ❤️

When you give me the name of your friend, sister, coworker, spouse, parent or neighbor and say, “Ashley, I think they could use this too,” I do NOT take that lightly.

You’re trusting me to reach out, make them feel comfortable, meet them where they are and hopefully help them take a step toward a stronger, healthier life.

So this year for CG’s Birthday, PUT ME TO WORK. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

My goal is to help 56 new people through CG in honor of my mom, who would have turned 56 on September 18. ❤️
And I need a LOT of names to find those 56 people.

For my current campers, I’m making it fun too. 😏
🎁 Fill out one of my Birthday Guest Lists with at least 5 people you’d trust me to reach out to and turn it in to me, and I’ll enter you into my raffle for a brand-spanking-new CG mat.

That’s it. They don’t have to sign up. You don’t have to sell them anything. Give me the names. Let ME do the work.

If you’ve ever thought, “I wish ___ would come try CG with me,” NOW is the time to tell me who they are.
Help me find my 56. ❤️
