Wellness Services with Ashley
I am from the mindset that yoga and it's practices both on and off the mat are for everyBODY. You know your body best and my job is to provide a space to explore listening to your intuition and reconnect with you mind, body, and spirit in a loving and compassionate way. We use props to explore support our exploration and offer an element of play! Wellness services create a melodic flow, calm presence, playful spirit, and open heart.

What a Practice Might Feel Like
Upon entering entering wellness practices with Heart's Song there is a sense of warmth and security. We spend time building a community within our practice and easing into our practice to arrive in this moment. Music fills the room, whether it is a lively playlist or the sound of our collective breath. Each practice feels like their own composition as you flow pose by pose, breath by breath, to find inner strength at stability. All while cultivating a sense of play and freedom to follow your body and heart's guidance. We wrap our session with a thoughtful return to the room and intention to take our practice with us off the mat. To close we leave with an acknowledgement of thanks and a remembering that YOU matter.

Ashley's Yoga Story
​
Yoga found me in 2008 when my mom became ill. For my mom and I, yoga was a way to connect and heal through movement during this difficult time. Since then, yoga has brought me a deeper connection to my mind, body, and spirit. In many ways yoga has helped me meet myself, as I am and grow to who I continue to become. It was in this share time of healing with my mom where the dream of Heart's Song Wellness began to quietly sing it's first notes.
In 2015, I was blessed to receive my 200hr teaching certificate under the guidance of her teachers Christen Bakken and Katy Rowe. The following year, I continued my education under Christen Bakken and earned her 500hr teaching certificate. ​Since then, I have completed several 75hr and two additional 200hr yoga teacher trainings to deepen my practice!
​
Heart's Song Wellness is my dream to spread love and creativity by cultivating empowering connections to the world around us. May you know you matter!
