About

Hi! I’m Ashlynn, and I’m so happy you’re here.

I started attending barre classes in 2017 during a pivotal time in my life, and it quickly became a place where I found joy, community, and physical and mental freedom. I loved it so much that I became Barre Above certified that same year—and I’ve been teaching multiple classes per week ever since. In 2021, I launched the virtual studio.

The virtual studio was created to be a space where you can access the boutique fitness studio class at a large fraction of the price, fit movement into your schedule with greater ease, and learn to enjoy exercise to support your long-term health.

As a former school counselor and someone who overcame her own journey of mind-body unrest, it’s foundationally important to me to use body-neutral language that helps you notice how you feel when you move. Using cues for alignment to get the most out of your workout, we focus on movement as play so it is joyful and judgment-free.

In my experience, an approach that’s fun, educational, built to the beat, and focused on encouragement is one that actually sticks. In class together, we’ll take quick moments as we move to observe the positive mental and physical changes that exercise creates—and with time, I’m confident that you’ll find consistency and joy in movement.

It’s my mission to use movement to help you feel joyful, strong, empowered, and ready to take on all of the amazing things you were uniquely created to do.

I’m honored you’re here, and I can’t wait to move with YOU!

♡ Ashlynn
