Ashley Nicole Lesko

YOGA INSTRUCTOR 500RYT

Ashley Nicole started practicing yoga in 2010 while attending college in Boulder, Colorado. She immediately fell in love with the practice and she used it to help her through periods of stress, anxiety, and depression. She believes yoga and meditation are the keys for cultivating self-awareness and long lasting, healthy relationships. Ashley began teaching in 2014 upon completion of her 250-hour and 500-hour training programs. In 2018, she decided to dedicate her life to yoga, took a leap of faith, and left her corporate marketing job to travel, teach, and study yoga internationally, most notably in India. She loves to incorporate what she learned while traveling into her classes and looks forward to sharing her insights with you in her creative, challenging, yet mindful flows. Her intent for teaching is to share the joy and healing that yoga has brought her with others. She plans to continue studying yoga and is committed to a life-time of learning and self-development. As long as she is helping her students, they are helping her, as she believes, "In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn."

Ashley is a Level 2 IAYT certified Yoga Therapist and also has certifications in Yin Yoga, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Nutrition, and Women’s Fitness.

Calm, Clear Mind & An Open Heart

This Christmas, give yourself the gift of self-care, self-study, and preparation for a transformative new year by joining Ashley for a Winter Solstice practice that includes yin yoga, meditation, yoga nidra, journaling, and manifestation practices.

No matter the time of year, a change in season never ceases to stir up intense emotion. This is not a coincidence! As nature transforms, we too can feel energetic shifts occurring within and around us. Instead of allowing the shifts to throw us off kilter, we can remain steady by welcoming the new season with rituals, body work, and mindfulness.

On the night of the Winter Solstice, the darkest and shortest day of the year and considered the pagan New Year to many, we have an opportunity to celebrate the hope of returning light and new life. In this workshop, we will get slow, still, and quiet enough to connect with our inner guide, the light that shines deep within the darkest parts of ourselves, in order to uncover our dreams, desires, and hopes for the future.

We will:
- release tension, stress, and old patterns through yin
- calm and ease the mind in meditation
- transcend with yoga nidra
- study the true-self through journaling and manifestation practices
- let go of that which is no longer serving us
- set intentions for 2024 to step confidently into the new season and year ahead.
