ABOUT

LAUREN ASHLEY
Hi, I am Lauren and I’m a Personal Trainer, Pilates instructor and fitness coach with a passion for helping women become stronger, more confident and more comfortable in their bodies.
​
For me, fitness has never been about simply looking a certain way. It’s about feeling strong, capable and confident in everyday life, whether that’s lifting weights in the gym, moving well through Pilates, keeping up with your family or simply feeling good in your own skin.
​
I have always loved fitness and I danced from the young age of two, excelling in Ballet and en-pointe. My dance teacher Ms Debbie, taught us the fundamentals of Pilates and I attribute a lot of my core strength and lack of injury to her knowledge and dedication to teach us outside of Ballet lessons.
I continued my fitness journey moving into bikini bodybuilding which gave me a grounding for nutrition and challenged me in more ways than I could have imagined.
​
Now at 34, I am retired from bodybuilding and dedicate my time to helping women feel the best version of themselves through fitness.
MY FITNESS PHILOSOPHY
I believe fitness should enhance your life, not take it over.
I help busy women build strength, confidence and healthier lifestyles through realistic, sustainable fitness and nutrition coaching.
I also offer a range of classes which can be accessed at various locations around North Yorkshire.
​​
Whether you're looking to lose weight, build muscle, improve your fitness, or stay active during pregnancy and beyond, my approach to coaching is tailored to your goals and designed to fit around everyday life.
I believe in lasting results come from balanced training, supportive coaching and healthy habits.
