START YOUR MARRIAGE OFF

ON THE RIGHT FOOT!

A 1-Day Dance-Based Marriage Coaching Workshop for Newlywed & Engaged Couples

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

You're stepping into marriage. . .

- either planning your big day or you’ve already said “I do.”

 

Everything feels exciting and full of possibility, but deep down, there’s a little voice wondering:

“Are we ready for the real-life side of marriage?”

 

At times, it feels effortless—like you’re completely in sync. Other times, differences in habits, expectations, and communication styles leave you feeling disconnected or misunderstood. You worry:
“Will these differences eventually push us apart?”

You’ve heard that the first years of marriage can be the hardest, and you want to build a solid foundation—but between wedding planning, work, family, and life’s demands, it’s tempting to believe: 

“We’ll figure it out as we go... right?”

YOU'RE NOT ALONE

These fears are not only common, they’re warranted.

Research shows that nearly 50% of marriages in the U.S. end in divorce and half of all divorces happen within the first seven years of tying the knot.

 

Studies also show that couples who take the time to prepare for marriage with a supportive program early on are over 31% more likely to stay married and report higher levels of happiness, trust, and understanding than those who don’t.

Moving forward feeling

NOW IMAGINE...

Fully Equipped for what lies ahead

On the same page about your goals for the future

Deeply connected to one another

Confident you’ve already tackled some of the biggest questions about partnership

And what if the path to this

deeper connection was also ​​

What if you could avoid the common roadblocks BEFORE they appear?

Super Fun!

I UNDERTSAND

the uncertainty that comes with the first years of marriage

Because I've been there myself, and I also know sitting through numerous traditional marriage counseling sessions doesn’t exactly sound like an exciting way to spend your precious free time together.

That's where I come in my friend!

THAT'S WHY I'VE CREATED

A one of a kind couples workshop, to address those real-life challenges in a playful, interactive, and truly memorable way!

WHO AM I ANYWAY?

 Hey There!

My name is Ashely Mayer,

I’m a wife, certified marriage coach, and award winning ballroom dance teacher, who is crazy-passionate about helping couples take an ACTIVE approach to their marriage health.

In my 19 years as a career ballroom dance competitor and instructor, I have worked with hundreds of couples in every stage of life. I’ve witnessed first hand the impact dancing with one another had on their relationships with each other and themselves. 

 

Early in my teaching career, a student once told me,

“Our dance lessons have been so beneficial for our marriage. We feel they’re just as important as our therapy sessions, BUT —so much more fun!”

Those words planted the seed for the dance-based relationship coaching I offer today.

 

You see, the skills we teach on the dance floor—vulnerability, teamwork, and communication—are the same ones couples need to thrive in marriage. Through dance, I help couples build these essential skills in a way that’s engaging, transformative, and, above all, fun!

My own life altering experience with the power of dance, coupled with years of witnessing first-hand the transformations of my students, lit a fire in me to create a program for couples as an ACTIVE alternative to traditional couples therapy by marrying coaching principles with lessons from the dance floor.
