Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) October 04, 2014 - Ashley Johnson, owner and founder of Ashley's Fitness Party, is honored to be named as an Atlanta Ballet Hip Hop instructor for beginners, intermediate and advanced classes for the Centre for Dance Education program at the Buckhead location (4279 Roswell Rd., Ste. #703). Johnson teaches two classes in this program on Saturdays, a beginner's class for ages 8-12 and an intermediate class for ages 13 and older. An advanced class will be added in the coming months. Through programs such as the Centre for Dance Education, the Atlanta Ballet is able to offer dance classes for everyone in the community no matter their age or experience.

People can attend classes such as hip/hop, ballet, tap and jazz, just to name a few and discover the joys of dance. Now, learning dance is possible from some of the most qualified dance instructors. Not long ago, the Ballet began focusing on another element that is essential to all dancers, proper nutrition. With the Centre for Dance Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyles the Ballet is able to assists dancers, dance schools, and dance companies in achieving the best possible performance with fewer injuries by ensuring that health and nutrition are an integral part of each dancer's education and experience. Both the Centre for Dance Education and Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyles give opportunities for instructors like Ashley Johnson to make a difference in the lives of people who want to learn to dance and help them live healthy lives while doing it.

"Ashley creates a high-energy, creative and uplifting atmosphere in her classes," said Kate Gaul, Principal of the Atlanta Ballet Centre of Dance Education-Buckhead location. "This environment certainly draws the attention of the young dancers in her class, but it's her knowledge and teaching that keeps them coming back again and again."

Johnson's love and passion for dance began when she started dancing at nine years old. For the past 16 years, Johnson has passed on her passion and love for dancing by teaching it to others. Over the years, Ashley has learned that a healthy and well balanced diet is the necessary fuel for dancing. Good nutrition is an important part of her life as a dancer and is something she teaches to other dancers. Along with being a dancing professional, Johnson is also a fitness expert. Several years ago her backgrounds in both dance and fitness led her to creating her own company, Ashley's Fitness Party (AFP).

AFP is the brand umbrella for all of Johnson's fun and highly-energetic fitness classes and health programs that travels to client facilities and homes. AFP is more than just another workout class because of Johnson's ability to connect with her participants and her ability to quickly assess their needs and deliver high-level exercise workouts and basic nutrition awareness programs that assists participants in moving toward their target health goals. In addition, her programs are being held with schools to promote the fight against the childhood obesity epidemic.
