About Ashley
Hi! my name is Ashley Joy Hoffman. I’m an Olympic Athlete and Yoga Therapist.
I played Field Hockey at the University of North Carolina, was 3x All-American, Defensive player of the year, Honda Award Winner and UNC Female athlete of the Year, ACC female Athlete of the year, but best of all undefeated National Champion. After college I competed professionally in The Netherlands, Argentina and India and represented my country on TEAM USA.
Through my journey, I’ve experienced the intensity, the highs and lows, and the emotional and physical demands of elite sport firsthand. These experiences taught me that true high performance isn’t just about training harder, it’s about training smarter, caring for your body and mind, and building resilience through connection.

About The Asana Athlete LLC.
I created The Asana Athlete to bring together my love for chasing ambitious dreams, self-development, and holistic wellness.

The Asana Athlete is rooted in the core values of awareness, acceptance, and accountability.
Awareness of self is the foundation for true growth and authentic leadership.
Acceptance reminds us that we're human - beautifully imperfect and always evolving.
Accountability calling us to take ownership of our choices, our growth, and the impact we have on the world.
