Meet Ashley Hanna, the Unbreakable Spirit Behind Titanium Yoga!
Welcome to the first blog post for Titanium Yoga!
Titanium Yoga is a passion project that is both deeply personal and deeply rewarding, and I wanted to use this first post to introduce myself to you. I look forward to sharing more of my story with you over the coming weeks.

Titanium Yoga was born two years ago today, on March 3, 2016, when I was in a horrible car accident that nearly killed me. In fact, when the police arrived at the scene of the accident, the officer thought I was already gone. My driver’s side door was open, my arm was out, and it was green … normally a sign of death.
I did not know this before, but a way to find signs of life in someone who is unresponsive is to blow on their face. That is what the officer did, and I came to.
After multiple surgeries and two years of rehabilitation, I am not only happy to still be around, but excited to launch Titanium Yoga, Ponte Vedra’s only yoga studio!
Titanium Yoga’s name has special meaning to me.
First, titanium is a reference to the hardware in my shoulder, leg, and hand.
Second, it is a reference to yoga, which may seem obvious since Titanium Yoga is a yoga studio, but to me, yoga meant a return to the life I knew before the accident.
When I left the hospital after the accident, I was told that I would be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life. That might have been true if I did not find yoga.
I hope our blog will be a place where I can share my story – which I will over the coming weeks – as well as a place where we share the stories of those who visit the studio …
Your story.
