” In a world where you can be anything, be kind.“
Ashley is a retired Volleyball player who competed at Club, State, National and International Level. He is an industry ‘veteran’ having worked as a trainer for more than 20 years.

Permanent lifestyle change can be a slow process and minor wins can be overlooked, but when that lightbulb moment happens and the member thinks “yeah, l do remember that l couldn’t do that, but now l can” is an awesome thing to watch.
