“I have been working with Ashley for over a decade now. She is my hands down first call when I need to bring in a teacher to work with students in both fight and intimacy. My students always get jazzed when they know Ashley is coming because they feel empowered as artists and listened to as people. Plus, they know she's going to make them look like rockstars onstage. I can also personally attest to Ashley's training, as both an actor and fellow director. I've attended her workshops in both fight and intimacy and have worked under her as an intimacy apprentice. Her trainings pack a punch, and in a very short time I have gained a reputation for being highly knowledgeable by listening closely and implementing her teachings.”
