Ashley Ludman

Ashley is a breathwork teacher, somatic practitioner, and facilitator with over two decades of experience guiding individuals and groups through embodied inquiry, nervous system regulation, and integrative healing. Her work is grounded, relational, and rooted in lived experience rather than ideology.

Ash is the founder of The Body of Breath, an online and in-person practice space devoted to breathwork, embodiment, and conscious living. She is also the Global Outreach Coordinator for the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance (GPBA) and has been training breathwork facilitators internationally since 2012.

Her approach emphasizes responsibility, integration, and accessibility—supporting people in learning how to live what they know rather than chasing peak experiences.

Ash’s work is informed by years of study in breathwork, bodywork, trauma-informed practice, and psychedelic integration, as well as her background in movement and therapeutic touch.

At the heart of her teaching is a commitment to presence, ethical facilitation, and the cultivation of sustainable, embodied leadership—both in personal practice and in community.
