Ashlee R.

Business Owner

Ashlee is a 6 time marathoner, ultramarathoner and a Yogaworks 500 hour certified teacher specializing in Yoga for Runners and Athletes. Having been a runner and yogi since her teenage years (as well as a dancer), she knows the importance of restoring balance to the body in order to recover faster, avoid injuries and train harder. Her classes and private sessions focus on an attention to alignment, deep restorative stretching and practicing awareness of the body in real practical terms. She finds that yoga and running have a lot of crossover. The deep breathing and quieting of the mind that is practiced in yoga can be very helpful in the last miles of a marathon. She teaches at various locations throughout NYC, is a running guide with City Running Tours, and is on the coaching staff as a yoga instructor for Team Continuum.
