UFE’s Official Spokesmodel Featured on January 2009 Oxygen Magazine Cover
This is quite a success story for Sean Everingham and the UFE. While Sean was a trainer with Family Fitness in Hamilton, Ontario he noticed a stunningly beautiful young lady by the name of Ashley Harrison. Sean approached Ashley and told her that he thought she had the potential to do extremely well in fitness competitions and that he would like to train her. At the age of 18, Ashley placed a respectable top 15 among nearly 100 competitors in her first competition and was hooked.
At each show Ashley competed in, she continued to place higher and higher and Sean told her that one day, she would end up on the cover of Oxygen Magazine. When Sean began training in Mississauga, he and Ashley discontinued their training, but kept in touch. In 2007, at UFE’s inaugural event, UFE Halloween Mayhem, Ashley was a part of the competition and in addition to those who would walk away with top honours in each category, 1 person would be selected as UFE’s "Official Spokesmodel." and would represent UFE on all of our print material. The winner? Ashley Harrison! UFE was the first organization to realize Ashley’s true potential and when competing at the WBFF Championships in 2008,
Ashley was recruited to do a shoot for Oxygen Magazine. During this shoot, it was decided that Ashley would be the cover of their January 2009 edition…6 short years since Sean told Ashley she would one day make the cover of Oxygen. Ashley is not the only one that Sean told would be on the cover of Oxygen Magazine. Francisca Dennis is another young lady that Sean approached about the potential of doing well in competition and Fran has since gone on to be featured on the cover of Oxygen Magazine as well as in the magazine several times and is a top ranking figure competitor. Fran has also hinted that she may just decide to take to the stage at a UFE stage in the near future.
