Wyld’s mamma, yogini, beloved partner, mystic, eternal student, and lover of the goddess, Uma (Ashleigh) has been teaching therapeutic yoga, meditation and philosophy since 2005. Dedicated to the pursuit of healing a spinal condition from birth, Uma began a dedicated self-practice at a very young age. Now, emerging from a traumatic transition into motherhood: a month-long induced coma and re-learning how to walk, her fiercely loving passion, capacity and skillset for healing through embodiment is unparalleled. Grounded in a solid foundation of the ancient teachings, Uma’s offerings are a practical and comprehensive exploration of the mystical, energetic and contemplative practices of the yoga tradition.

Co-founder of The Ālaya Yoga School, Director of Yoga and Movement for The Envision Festival in Costa Rica, Uma also spent five years as the Global Yoga Trainer for Adidas, was the former Head of Yoga Content for Gaia.com, and was honored to be the youngest Certified Anusara Yoga Instructor in the world. Uma’s yoga videos (as Ashleigh Sergeant) are featured on Gaia.com, Grokker and ShriTV. A regular presenter at the Wanderlust Festival, Uma’s work can also be seen on Mind Body Green, YOGANONYMOUS, Latin Women’s Health and German Yoga Journal.
