To learn from this duo is a truly unique experience as Emily adds a level of communication, application, and experience to Ashlay's authentic teachings. While the focus of your study will be Hatha Yoga, you will have the opportunity to glimpse their other areas of expertise such as Reiki Healing, Meditation, Yoga Therapy, Ayurveda, and learn from their experiences of building a business from the ground up, hosting retreats, and growing in love together with Devotion.
