Meet Ashley Napoli
Ashley is the founder of Living Lotus, a space devoted to living well from the inside out.
Through yoga, coaching, and retreats, she supports women in reconnecting with themselves and building lives rooted in authenticity over programming.
Her work is grounded in the belief that living well isn’t about following the trends or keeping up with everyone else, it’s creating a life that feels true to you.
Ashley blends self-love practices, Human Design, and alignment coaching to help clients quiet the external noise enough to recognize their own unique gifts and build lives they love.
After navigating her own challenging life transitions, Ashley decided to stop settling and start over at 40. She left her 18 year teaching career to build a brand that models what it’s like to live life on your own terms.
Whether she’s guiding a class or workshop, holding space in community, or working 1:1, Ashley’s approach is guided by her own lived experience. Her work invites you to release self-judgment so that you can step into everything that is possible — not perfectly, but intentionally.
The first time I unrolled a Yoga mat wasn’t pretty. Out of pure emotional necessity, I ambled my way through a beginner’s routine—something to quiet the anxiety that had come to pervade my daily experience.
As clunked my way through the Lotus, Downard Dog, and Happy Baby poses, I found myself questioning if I was even sitting, breathing, and moving correctly. Self-doubt was a familiar territory, and it had followed me once again. Yet, something happened on the mat that day. Love opened a small window through which I would climb into the full knowing of my being.
“That wasn’t so bad,” I thought to myself an hour later. “My neck feels a lot better. I could do this again.”
This was the first positive thing I thought about myself in a long time.
Studying and practicing yoga led me to become more physically and emotionally healthy. The positive results were shocking. With a little time and a dose of discipline, the girl who feared her shadow was transformed into a woman standing tall in the light.
As the founder of Living Lotus Yoga, it’s now an honor to use my skills as a certified Yoga Instructor to help others achieve life-changing results.
Living Lotus Yoga embraces all levels of study to an optimal yogic practice that builds on the fundamentals. Whether you’re beginning or advanced, you’ll find the answers you seek in thoughtfully curated sessions and a supportive community.
In addition to being a certified Yoga Instructor, I also hold certificates in Trauma Informed Yoga & Art Therapy, and Yin Yoga, as well as a master’s degree in education.
Wherever you are on your journey, welcome. You’re going to be great.
