MEET THE FOUNDERS
The People Behind Kinetic Sanctuary
Meet Ashley and Amanda, two nurses, longtime friends, and former athletes who believe recovery should have a place in everyone’s routine. They created Kinetic Sanctuary to help people feel supported, restored, and ready for what comes next.
HOW IT STARTED
Built on Friendship and a Shared Purpose
Conversations about sports, careers, family, and the ways we care for our bodies sparked an idea: create a welcoming space where recovery feels approachable and worth making time for. Ashley and Amanda brought their experiences together to build Kinetic Sanctuary for athletes, active adults, and anyone who wants to feel their best.
We are united by one mission: helping people perform better, recover faster, and live stronger.
Ashley Griffin, RN, BSN
Founder/CEO
Ashley Griffin is a Registered Nurse, lifelong multisport athlete, and wellness-focused leader with a passion for helping people better understand and care for their bodies. Throughout her athletic career, Ashley experienced firsthand the physical demands of training, competition, and balancing multiple sports. Her professional background in healthcare has given her an even deeper appreciation for the important role recovery plays in supporting performance, reducing strain on the body, and promoting long-term health and well-being.
As a mother of athletes, Ashley has also seen how easily young competitors can overlook recovery—pushing through pain, playing through injuries, and moving from one practice or competition to the next without giving their bodies the time and support they need. These experiences strengthened her desire to create a place where athletes, active individuals, and families can access effective recovery tools and develop healthier habits that support both their immediate goals and their future well-being.
Ashley and her best friend, now business partner; Amanda, shared stories from their childhood and realized how hard they were on their bodies and now paying for it. Through their conversations they agreed just how important recovery is from a young age to an older adult in order to move without unnecessary pain. Teaching young athletes that recovery is a necessity not an optional extra while also teaching older adults that they can feel better through more natural approaches and self-care, is very important to Ashley.
Amanda Hullet, RN, BSN, MHCL
Founder/COO
Amanda Hullet has been passionate about two things for most of her life: athletics and caring for others. A former multisport athlete, collegiate basketball player, and coach, Amanda followed her athletic career by earning a nursing degree. Her nursing career has now spanned more than 19 years.
Through conversations with her best friend and now business partner, we realized that Kinetic Sanctuary could bring together the things they both value: recovery, movement, wellness, and helping others live stronger.
Amanda learned—often the hard way—the importance of taking care of your body not only for today, but for the future. She is excited to support athletes who want to recover well, enhance their performance, and build long-term resilience. She is equally passionate about helping former athletes and active adults continue doing what they love, as well as individuals who want to look, feel, and move better at any age.
Amanda looks forward to learning about each person’s goals and helping create a personalized recovery approach that allows them to feel better, move with confidence, and live stronger.
