Established in 2025, by Nicola Beard, an experienced corrective exercise and barefoot training specialist, Ashiato brings together a modern insight into foot mechanics, injury recovery, fascia release, and functional strength, helping therapists and fitness professionals understand how foot dysfunction impacts the entire body, from pain to posture to pelvic floor health.

Inspired by the Japanese word for “footprints,” Ashiato offers a practical and intuitive framework to restore strength, structure, and sensory connection — making it ideal for professionals who want long-term results, not temporary fixes.

It’s the missing link between the symptoms you see and the mechanics you haven’t been taught, yet.
