Testimonials
Hear from past and present clients how mental performance training has changed their life...
My gymnast daughter had some early season setbacks in competitions this year and did not perform to her expectations, which eroded some of her confidence and joy for this sport. We chose Strike Zone Performance for one-on-one mental performance help. The work on internal and external focus stood out when she took a hard fall on the beam doing a difficult element at practice. She was able to get back on the beam immediately, correct her form, and complete that skill cleanly at competition. I appreciate Ashley’s dedication to her athletes and especially when she came out to watch one of her competitions. Ashley is a game changer!"

"My experience working with Ashley was a very positive and worthwhile endeavour. She gave me the tools I needed to succeed in a high-pressure competitive sports environment. I was so impressed with her that I recommended her to a family member who has also seen a marked increase in their athletic performance. If you are looking for a competitive edge, I highly recommend working with Ashley."
"Ashley provides a welcoming and judgemental-free environment where she really takes the time to listen to everything I have to say. She is able to help me find the root cause of any issue and determine ways of actively improving myself to handle them better. The work we do helps not only for the concert hall but also for various life situations. I'm very grateful towards her and towards her continual encouragement and desire to see me reach my goals. Thank you so much, Ashley! "

"I had the pleasure to work with Ashley while I was going under the process of my board exam for massage therapy. When I heard she was working with musicians and the visualization of performance I was super interested in her services. The drills she gave me to visualize and analyze my effort and the moment were game changer. I passed my board exams, and now I use those drills for weightlifting competitions and new business challenges."
-Pat / Personal Trainer and Massage Therapist, 2022
"This season I got the opportunity to work with Strike Zone Performance in both a group setting and one on one, both times allowing for very open and honest conversations. Ashley was always able to adapt her sessions to the needs that the group brought that week with her extensive knowledge of mental performance. There were countless times that Ashley went beyond what her job was to make sure everyone got what they needed out of her sessions."
-Janma/ Women's Rugby Team, Ottawa U, 2019
"When I decided to reach out to her for a one on one session, I didn’t know what I needed to take my game to the next level and get out of my own head, but Ashley was just that. She was able to walk me through strategies of visualization and mindfulness while also reminding me that is just a sport that I love and that I know how to play it. It is quite obvious that Ashley truly wants the best for the athletes she works with and is willing to relentlessly work to make that happen with continuous support and dedication to helping them achieve their goals.
Thank you for everything Strike Zone Performance, It’s very much appreciated! "
