What My Students Are Saying

“I just had the most amazing yoga class to myself on my back porch, thanks to Ashley! She has the most calming, meditative voice. Ashley talks through each pose with intention and pauses to deliver exactly the slow burn I love from yoga.

She checked in on me halfway through class to make sure I was doing ok. I also love that Ashley offered up melted heart pose as an alternative to headstand to still get the benefits of putting your heart below the rest of your body. My neck and shoulders can’t always handle headstand.

It was the perfect start to a spring day to set my intention about relieving stress during this challenging time. Ashley helped me do exactly that while giving me a great workout!”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Ashley. I booked her for a group yoga session as part of a bachelorette weekend, and it was a wonderful experience. She had great communication, was timely, and made sure everyone in the group felt taken care of in terms of adjustments. Ashley and Nourish & Grow Yoga are on my shortlist. :)”

What a lovely yoga class. Not only was the setting fantastic, but Ashley is such a calm and comforting instructor with great guidance and modifications. I leave her classes feeling uplifted.

A friend and I attended Ashley’s yoga class at The Lavender Barnyard. We had a lovely Yin Yoga class under a magnificent maple tree, guided gently and expertly by Ashley. It is definitely worth a trip to the Farmington area for yoga in a beautiful venue.

“I am taking private Gentle Yoga classes, and it has been a very rewarding and pleasant experience. It is very important to me at this stage in my life (I am in my mid-sixties) to remain physically strong and flexible. Ashley’s approach is professional, client-oriented, and mindful of carrying out poses correctly to get the maximum benefit.


I consider these peaceful sessions a gift to myself, a little time-out, and it provides the opportunity to reconnect with myself and the universe, all from the comfort of my home at a time that fits my schedule. Love it!

I and a couple of friends did a group program with Ashley over Zoom. It was an amazing way to connect not only with my friends but with myself as well. She had a well-thought-out and organized program including some optional reflection activities so that we were able to open up together during the sessions. I highly recommend Ashley.”

The lavender farm yoga was an amazing experience led by Ashley! It was a gentle yoga class full of great stretching and Ashley’s instructive yet meditative voice. It was a beautiful flow. And, being outdoors, listening to the wind in trees, feeling the sunshine on my skin, birds chirping, and crickets singing while smelling the lavender was so peaceful. All of my senses were engaged. It was a truly magical experience. Thank you so much, Ashley!

“Ashley is a wonderful yoga instructor - challenging, but always reminding me to work within my limits at the time. She is very knowledgeable about the body and the yoga postures that may be beneficial for strengthening and increasing flexibility. I highly recommend working with her on a one-on-one basis. And she will come to your home for your session!”

— Karen

“I really enjoy Ashley’s yoga lessons! Ashley is a born yoga teacher. She gives made-to-measure exercises, gives clear instructions, and is very thoughtful and empathic. The yoga lessons are good for my body, very relaxing, and also motivating to be more compassionate with myself.”

— Judith

“Ashley gave us a first-rate introduction to yoga. Our research group was offered a weekly course during the Coronavirus lockdown in the Netherlands. Distance is no problem with Zoom; Ashley is in Minneapolis, we are in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.

It all worked out perfectly. We were beginners, but now we can do various postures with ease. She guided us in a very nice way. Her voice is clear and gentle, and we couldn’t believe she had only recently obtained her certificate as a yoga teacher. She is a real professional.”
