Ashley Michelle Martin (Owner) ®️E-RYT 500, ®️YACEP, Soul Somatic Healing & Breathwork Practitioner

Ashley Michelle Martin's journey is one of transformation, healing, resilience and a deep devotion to supporting others through the many seasons of being human.


With over 4,000 hours of professional training, Ashley is an ®E-RYT 500 Yoga Teacher, Somatic Healing Practitioner, Mindfulness Coach, Soul Guide, Grief Support Practitioner, Certified Death Doula, Retreat Leader and the Curator & Lead Trainer of The Yoga Dome’s 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Program. 

Her extensive training spans Hatha, Yin, Restorative, Chair Yoga, SUP Yoga, Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra®, Somatic Healing and Breathwork, Trauma-Informed Yoga, advanced Meditation studies and End-of-Life care. Her work is rooted in both ancient wisdom and modern understandings of the body, mind, nervous system and spirit.


After 20 years of battling depression and alcoholism, Yoga became a guiding light in Ashley's life, shaping her path, expanding her heart and inspiring her to create spaces where others could heal, grow and reconnect with themselves. 

Alongside her partner, Eric Martin, she founded The Yoga Dome. A sanctuary built with love, intention, community and a belief that transformation is 

possible for everyone.


On January 7, 2026, Ashley's life changed forever when her mother, Tracey, passed away suddenly from a heart attack at 58 years old. Navigating profound grief became one of the greatest challenges of her life. Through this experience, Ashley felt called to transform pain into purpose, deepening her studies in grief support and becoming a Certified Death Doula to better support individuals and families navigating loss, end-of-life journeys and life's most difficult transitions.


Today, Ashley's work extends beyond yoga. Through Soul Guidance & Mentorship, Grief Support Services, Death Doula Care, Retreats, Transformational Travel experiences, Workshops and Teacher Trainings, she helps people navigate change, break old patterns, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect with themselves and live with greater purpose and authenticity.

Her teaching and mentorship style is warm, grounded, compassionate and infused with a little bit of humour. She believes that healing doesn't come from becoming someone new, rather, it comes from remembering who you are beneath the conditioning, expectations, fears and stories that have caused you to forget.


Whether leading a retreat halfway around the world, supporting a family through loss, guiding a meditation, or holding space for someone's first breath or last, Ashley invites others to explore life with curiosity, courage and an open heart.

Because the journey home to yourself is often the most important journey of all.

"If you're seeking clarity, craving change, navigating loss, or simply ready to reconnect with your own truth, I'm here to walk alongside you."
— Ashley Michelle Martin

Tammy Howell

Tammy Howell has been practicing yoga for over 20 years. It was not until moving to

Crystal Beach that she began to deepen her practice from the physical to all aspects of

yoga. Through mindful practice alone and in community, self-study, training, opening

her heart and the guidance and shared knowledge of teachers, friends, and fellow yogis

she has discovered yoga as a way of life. Connecting, uniting the mind, body, and spirit.

This has been life altering and lifesaving.

Tammy is a certified 200-hour Yoga Teacher and has continued fueling her passion for a yogic lifestyle and helping others with certifications in Yoga Nidra and

Restorative Yoga. Her practices are an expression of her soul and always come from a

place of compassion and love for self and others. She loves to interweave poetry,

affirmations, and quotes into her classes. She is grateful to be a yoga teacher and to

practice in community with others.

Tammy welcomes every body with an open heart and an open mind. Yoga has and

continues to guide her journey as a spirit having a human experience.

Tammy has a love for all things nature, hiking, biking, gardening, birding, and travelling.

She loves spending time with her family and friends, creating new memories, sharing

laughs, cries, and everything in between that this human journey has to offer.

Deanna Colafranceschi

My name is Deanna. I'm a 200-hour Yoga Instructor, receiving my certification through Alchemy Yoga & Wellness Studio. I am also certified in restorative practice and nidra yoga meditation, acquired through The Yoga Dome.. My passion is sharing space with others, helping to guide them along their individual journey and exploration of themselves, nurturing their mind, body, heart and soul. I'm also a Registered Early Childhood Educator and Child and Youth Worker.. Through this work I have learned to incorporate my yogic practices. Helping both children and adults to recognize the beauty in individuality. As well as finding calm in times of stress and chaos through self regulation techniques.

With every class my intention is to hold space for an inclusive, judgement free, safe environment, welcoming all bodies, all abilities and all ages. I lead with compassion, acceptance and self love. Offering breathwork, gentle hatha, restorative asana and guided meditation to self, through self. May you find stillness in this space to rest, restore and renew, creating peace and balance.

My practices invite you to show up as you are, to show up for no one but you, to be present, mindful and kind to yourself. There is nothing more valuable than honouring your soul.

You are worth it!

~In loving memory of Meaghan Scott 200RYT~ August 31, 1980-October 30, 2023

THANK YOU MEAGHAN FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE YOGA COMMUNITY! YOU HAVE INSPIRED SO MANY AND WILL BE GREATLY MISSED! UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN, FRIEND!


Meaghan is a Port Colborne-based yoga teacher who teaches at various locations throughout the Niagara region.

A longtime dancer and dance instructor, Meaghan fell in love with yoga after her first down dog. She relishes the “practice” of yoga, and takes pleasure in showing up on her mat everyday: moving, breathing, being, growing. A class with Meaghan is playful and creative, while syncing movements with breath.

Outside of yoga her interests include, nature hikes with her dogs , paddle boarding, all things lunar and of course making memories with her husband and three beautiful girls.
