Services & Pricing

After dancing professionally in NYC, I discovered a passion for teaching and enjoy helping others understand a deeper part of themselves through movement.

I believe movement is necessary. I love how the breath is integrated deeply into both the Pilates and GYROTONIC® methodologies to create an innate fluidity in the body.

I have worked with a large range of clients from beginners to athletes, pre and post-natal mamas, to those recovering from injuries, and others looking to change their lifestyle. As a mama myself, I understand the importance of working the abdominals safely for both pre and post-natal clients to prevent or recover from diastasis recti.

I currently teach at Equinox Greenwich Avenue in NYC.

Testimonials

I have practiced Pilates for many years—all over the country, and at what seems like nearly every studio in the city. Ashley at Henry Street Pilates is one of the greatest instructors I’ve had the privilege to work with. I am stronger and more flexible—and all the while more challenged for her instruction.
— Danielle A.
Wednesdays are my favorite day of the week because I love waking up to Stretch and Flow with Ashley! This class offers just the right combination of breathwork and movement to be gently invigorating. It clears my head and makes my body feel wonderful, so I’m ready to start the day.
— Hana L.
I can always count on Ashley to work me out really hard. No matter how tired I am before I get there, I always find that I am pushing myself without really knowing it because she is the perfect combination of intensity and sneaky sweet!
— Kate B.
Ashley’s Stretch and Flow class on Wednesday mornings has now become my favorite class of the week! I have never been much of a yogi, but Ash’s clear instruction and mellow vibe makes for an awesome class….The poses and techniques are challenging enough, but just the right balance of stretching and strengthening. I feel 2 inches taller by the end of a very quick 45 minutes.
