Group Fitness Instructor
Ashleigh is originally from sunny Southern California. Her passion for fitness began at a young age through dance and musical theatre. Throughout her career as a theatre professional, she relied on fitness to be her best self on-stage, and off. Group fitness became such a passion, she made it into a career. She’s certified in Barre and Pilates, and has taught dance for all ages for over a decade. As a busy working mom of two little kids, she knows how challenging it is to carve out time for yourself, but truly believes that movement and music are medicine for the soul.
She lives in West Orange with her husband and 2 children, and when she’s not at the studio… she’s probably at Disney!

When I’m not in the gym working out, playing the guitar is my go-to activity! I delved into this passion at 16, being self-taught and exploring a range of genres. Playing guitar is a great outlet, allowing me to express myself and de-stress whenever I need.

Personal Trainer
Sandra is a transplant from California. She became a fitness coach to help people let go of their limited beliefs, discover their physical potential, and embrace fitness as a life journey, not a temporary activity. “Our bodies can do so much more than we let them. We just need to challenge it, let go of our fears or embarrassment and be patient with the process.”
Sandra loves running. She successfully completed two 100-mile races, the iconic Western States 100-Mile race in 2014 and Zion 100-mile race in 2018 with many 50K, 50 milers and 100K races in between. It was through her passion for running that she found a love for general fitness and learned the importance of flexibility, mobility, and strength training not only in life in general, but also in sports performance. Though she is not able to run long distance anymore, her happy place is still the trails!
Sandra also loves to travel, food, wine, and serving communities in need. She lives with her husband and their two spoiled fur babies Burpee, a sheepadoodle and Zion, a tabby domestic short hair cat.
Interesting fact: If I had a superpower, it would be to heal people from injuries so they can continue to do the activities they love!
