OUR RETREATS

Taking Ashley’s group classes introduced me to her wonderful energy. The cues she uses during the exercises take her classes to another level. She connects to her students at a high level of energy that not only provides a great physical workout, but a feeling of spiritual growth as well. Her sessions/classes are never the same. In group classes she brings variety so that everyone can grow. In private lessons she focuses on the areas that I personally need to work on including strength, length and stability. I have a limitation with my shoulder, so I decided to try private lessons with her. WOW! what a difference she has made for me. She has taught me many variations/modifications that allow me to continue to grow and succeed even with my limitations. I love the different ways that she reminds me what muscles I should be using. I can take what I learn in private sessions back to group classes as well. I look forward to continued work and growth with her both in private and group classes.

Ashley Fedarko is an amazing Pilates instructor. I have worked with Ashley every week for over a year and her workouts have changed my body. I am not only stronger, but I am also more confident in what my body can do. She tailors each session so that I get the best workout based on how my body is feeling that day. The workouts are never boring and she is constantly making sure I am challenged. I highly recommend Ashley if you want to get stronger and feel more confident in your body.

I have been taking Pilates classes with Ashley for 18 months, both group classes and private sessions. Ashley is an amazing teacher. She really understands the human body and its connection with the mind. She is able to break down and explain the different parts of a Pilates exercise, and then helps me put them all together in a meaningful whole. I have progressed so much under Ashley's tutelage! I'm in my 70's; yet you'd never know it from my posture and ability to move. I enthusiastically recommend Ashley as a Pilates instructor to anyone of any age or fitness level!

I highly recommend Ashley Michelle Fitness for anyone looking to move their body in an effective and enjoyable way! Not only is Ashley a wealth of knowledge, but you feel like you’re working out with a friend. I’ve taken group classes and privates with her, and I always leave feeling more connected to my body than when I started. She takes the time to explain things in a way that everyone can understand. Whether you’re a novice or more advanced, her instruction will meet your needs!

When I started my Pilates journey I was so nervous. I was fearful of being judged and unable to succeed. I made the decision to reach out to Ashley when I was ready to dive in deeper to the Pilates world. At the first session, we discussed my experience with exercise, created goals and discussed what I wanted to get out of private sessions. From that first day Ashley made me feel so comfortable and excited about Pilates. I have gained strength, muscles & abilities I didn't know I had. And most importantly the confidence to feel like I can succeed at any goal we set. She always gives you positive reinforcement. And she will always push you because she knows what you’re capable of as a student. She personalizes your workouts and you will always leave in a sweat . And most likely sore the next day. I do these sessions as a form of self care. I am proud of where I am today all because of Ashley and her trust in me and my abilities.
