a New Englander through and through, ashley moved to the Lehigh Valley from Rhode Island to pursue her undergraduate degree at Lehigh University. she entered the group fitness scene to stay active during her busy class schedule, and spin stole her heart! hooked ever since, ashley became Spinning™️ certified in Boston the winter of 2018.
after spending 15 years as a dancer, she understands that music can release a wide range of emotions in us all, and she choreographs rides carefully and intentionally to help release any feelings you may be holding onto, good, bad, beautiful or ugly. for an extra challenge, add a turn any time she mentions caramel macchiatos, her English Bulldog (Rousey!), or true crime podcasts. she apologizes in advance for calling the water fountain a ‘bubblah’, but hopes her blood-pumping, heart-racing class makes up for it and you leave feeling like your best self! |
