Be U Fitness is a fitness training studio established in February of 2021. Owner and operator Ashley Johnson is a personal trainer and group fitness instructor. At 300 pounds and battling depression, she lost 100 pounds naturally from exercise and healthy eating.

Her goal is to assist women in becoming healthier and stronger versions of themselves by understanding that fitness has no particular shape, color, or size.

- Letter Tracing for Beginners
​by Dr. Tara Hines-McCoy
