Kathryn is a certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach, an ACE certified Group Fitness Instructor, and a Fitness Nutrition Specialist. She holds her BLS (Basic Life Support) certificate through the American Heart Association. Kathryn likes making fitness work into everyone’s daily lives and loves to make working out fun. She loves running and tabata workouts, and seeing babies imitate their strong mamas is one of her favorite parts about SLAM.
Kathryn is originally from Columbia, SC but thanks to being a military spouse, she has lovingly made Southern Pines home since 2016. She has a B.A. and a M.Ed. in Education and taught middle school math before staying at home with her babies, Parker, Garrett, and Dana. Kathryn found SLAM in early 2019, and loved it so much that she became an instructor that summer. She was thrilled to take ownership of SLAM Southern Pines in the summer of 2020. She loves learning and is always taking new courses to help grow her knowledge of fitness and support her SLAM mamas.
“SLAM is the most unique and powerful community that I have ever been a part of. These women genuinely love, support and care for each other. Seeing the mamas and littles cheer each other on at SLAM and in life might be the best feeling ever. It has been an absolute blessing to be able to continue to grow this incredible tribe here in Southern Pines. SLAM Southern Pines is like no other…come see what we are all about!”

The Southern Pines Team
Mary Moris | Instructor
Mary is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and an Orthopedic Certified Specialist, with a focus on treating running injuries. She is also a certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism coach. Currently taking a PT career pause to be home with her babies, she loves instructing with SLAM in order to serve mothers through knowledge of healthy movement, injury prevention, and fitness.
She joined SLAM in fall of 2020 and the strong community of women she encountered, motivating and supporting each other both during and outside of class, was a blessing for her as a new mom.
Mary is a proud Army wife, mother of two little girls and a son, and a former collegiate track athlete. She loves learning, alongside her other SLAM mamas, to enjoy and cherish these days when toddlers run amuck and spit up on her outfit is the norm.
Mary is one of the smartest, kindest, strongest women you’ll meet. We’re so blessed to have her here in the Pines.
Ashley Bullock | Instructor
Ashley started coming to SLAM with her son in 2019 when her husband deployed, and fell in love with all things SLAM. After having her second son in 2021 she had to rely on the Cyber program to get her workouts in. After acclimating to the chaos of 2 kiddos she came back in person but still utilized Cyber workouts when life got busy. In the summer of 2022 Ashley’s family PCS’d to El Paso, TX. With the support and encouragement of SLAM Boss Kathryn, Ashley became an ACE Certified Group Fitness Instructor in 2022. Ashley knows first hand how busy life can get and loves getting that nap time workout in, so when SLAM Boss Kathryn asked her to take over the Cyber program she jumped at the offer.
Ashley grew up in Hamilton, OH doing all kinds of sports (softball, volleyball, basketball, cross country) she then went on to earn her Bachelor of Science Degree in Finance at Northern Kentucky University, all while continuing her love of running. She is the incredible mama to two boys and a little girl. Ashley loves that SLAM pushes mamas, to give them that 1 hour for themselves, all while your babes are watching on and encouraging you.
If you know her, you know how much she loves SLAM (and SLAM merch) and is the absolute BEST encourager.
Kate Lemens | Instructor
Kate is a mom of 2 little ones (Isla and Joey), a Labor and Delivery nurse, an Army veteran, and an Army spouse. She started coming to SLAM in April of 2021 after hearing about it from a patient she was taking care of at work. Ashley told her it was a fun mom group, based on fitness, and they had tank tops and she was sold! She loved the workouts, social events, and supportive community so much that she decided to become an instructor. With the support of SLAM boss Kathryn and the rest of the coaches, Kate became an ACE certified group fitness instructor. She also holds a BLS certification through AHA.
Kate is an Army brat and has lived in a lot of places, but feels most at home here in the pines of North Carolina. She is passionate about fitness, books, family time, and women’s health. She loves that SLAM focuses on all stages of motherhood, especially pregnancy and postpartum fitness.
Kate is such a special person and is always so kind and welcoming to everyone. She’ll be your advocate, your biggest fan and will 100% push you to be your best self.
Ashley Tarbox | Instructor
Ashley started coming to SLAM in May of 2021 with her son Wally and daughter Nancy. SLAM was a wonderful way to get that much needed workout in while meeting new mom friends and basically having a playdate after. Fast forward to 2023 and she felt the pull to try coaching. With the support of the SLAM moms and SLAM Boss Kathryn, Ashley became an ACE certified group fitness instructor. She holds a CPR/AED certification from AHA.
The military brought Ashley and her family to the Pines, but she is originally from New Hampshire and tries to get back to New England as often as possible. She grew up as a competitive dancer and in college, started running. While there, she studied nutrition and has her BS in culinary nutrition. Cooking healthy food and doing killer workouts fills her heart with joy. She has three little ones, Wally, Nancy and Clarke and they help her coach on most days.

She also holds BLS certification through AHA.
Originally from Phoenix, AZ. Britt grew up playing sports. She has a Bachelors of Health Science from Boise State University. A few of her favorite things include reading, traveling the world, hiking and being outdoors.

“This group brings together a group of strong women that lean on each other to get stronger. The workout is tough, but the community makes it fun and keeps me coming back. There is a place here for all fitness levels with no judgment- only encouragement. Love this group and would highly recommend!”
“I look forward to going and getting my sweat on, I have never been stronger or felt more confident with my body. However, this group is more than just getting fit together. This group is an amazing supportive community of strong, fun-loving women. Women who have become more than just work out companions, more than just friends but have become family.”
“Amazing workout that comes with an even better group of ladies! Every workout is different and fun, and I love the kids’ playgroups and mom’s night out! I LOVE this group!”
