Ashton is the owner of and lead instructor at Mañana Wellness. She began practicing yoga at the YMCA in Detroit in 2011 as a means of coping with her demanding career in Corporate America and the domestic violence she had experienced. The closest feeling she could find to being on horseback, yoga led her to explore other modalities of mindful practice and energetic body work. She began teaching in 2019 and is qualified and certified in reiki, energy medicine, meditation, and Trauma-Informed Kundalini, Vinyasa, and Equine Yoga. Ashton is a Michigan native and an alum of the University of Michigan. She holds a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and a master’s degree in business and executive leadership. With extreme passion for making yoga, nature-based adventure, and the healing power of horses accessible to as many people as possible, she launched Mañana Wellness in 2024.
