At Abide Pilates, we offer a variety of small group reformer classes designed to meet you right where you are — from foundational flows to focused strength training, jumpboard cardio, stretch and mobility, and more. Each 50-minute session is intentionally crafted to help you build strength, restore balance, and reconnect with your body in a space that feels like home. Whether you're looking for a challenge, some peace, or a little bit of both — we’d love to move with you.

Meet Shelby Dockery

Owner & Lead Instructor

Hi, I’m Shelby — founder of Abide Pilates, wife to Grady, mama to two boys, and a firm believer in the power of movement, breath, and grace. Abide was born from a season of learning to slow down, surrender, and let the Lord reform my heart and body — and it’s become so much more than a studio. It's a sanctuary.

From the very first time I stepped onto a reformer, I knew I’d found something special — a practice that was gentle yet powerful, focused yet freeing. As I grew in my own Pilates journey, I felt called to create a space where women could feel strong, supported, and deeply seen. That vision has come to life in Abide: a bright, serene space filled with intentional design, encouraging words, and a community of women showing up for themselves and each other.

I hold certifications in mat and reformer Pilates and human anatomy through the Pilates Instructor Academy, and my teaching style reflects a balance of precision, encouragement, and challenge — always rooted in truth, breath, and grace. My goal isn’t just to lead great classes; it’s to help you leave more connected to your body and spirit than when you arrived.

Here at Abide, we celebrate progress over perfection. We believe in hard work, deep rest, and that strength doesn’t always look like sweat — sometimes it looks like stillness. Whether you’re brand new to Pilates or have years of practice behind you, you’re welcome here — just as you are.

Come abide with us.

Move With Us

Whether you're brand new to Pilates or returning to your reformer (or mat!) after a long break, there’s a place for you here. Our classes are thoughtfully designed to challenge you, restore you, and remind you what your body is capable of — all in a peaceful, supportive space filled with natural light, encouragement, and truth.

Come move with us. Breathe deep, press in, and walk out stronger — inside and out.

? Abide Member of the Month: Suszanne Reeves! ? We are so excited to announce our very first Member of the Month here at Abide Pilates—Suszanne Reeves! Since the day our doors opened less than a month ago, Suszanne has already completed 18+ classes (yes, you read that right!). Her dedication, consistency, and joyful presence have been such an encouragement to all of us. When we asked Suszanne about her favorite class, she shared: “I enjoy all of the classes, but if I had to pick a favorite it would be Flourish. It is not just an excellent class to improve your body, but a chance to focus your mind and find a moment of peace.” We also asked her what first brought her to Abide. Suzanne said: “I had never done Pilates before and wasn’t sure what it was going to be like. I love it!” And when asked to describe her Abide journey in quote or song, Suszanne chose this quote by Theodore Roosevelt: “Believe you can and you are halfway there.” Suszanne, thank you for being such a light in our community and for showing up so wholeheartedly to your practice. Your hard work and kind spirit inspire us all! Let’s all celebrate Suszanne in the comments below—drop her a ? or a ? to show her some love!

This summer wasn’t just about sunshine and snow cones… it was the summer everything shifted. The summer Abide Pilates came to town ? Sometimes, the best chapters aren’t about what we do but about who we become. And this summer? We became stronger, braver, and more connected — together. Which summer theme are you?!

Low-quality picture, high-quality memories Today marks the end of the third week that Abide has been open to the public, and my heart could not be more full. My favorite thing about the studio so far isn’t just the workouts (though they’ve been amazing!)—it’s watching women make new friends, step outside of their comfort zones, and grow together. This morning after class, I snapped this quick picture through the window. It’s not the best photo, but it’s one of my favorites—because it captured several of our ladies sitting outside after the next class had already started, chatting, laughing, and getting to know one another. Friendships are blooming here at Abide. Women are challenging themselves, learning something new, and finding connection—and that’s truly what it’s all about for me. Here’s to week three, and all the beautiful moments still to come. ?

Resetting the studio and getting everything ready for Thursday’s Pulse class (our jumpboard full body burn ?). There’s something about that in-between moment—when the lights are low, the boards click into place, and the room is quiet—that feels so special. Behind the scenes, it’s not just springs and straps… it’s the thought and care that goes into creating a space where you can show up, jump it out, and leave feeling stronger and lighter. ? Can’t wait to see you on the reformer tomorrow—are you booked in? ?

Let’s do a little Saturday studio reset to prep for next week!

A Little Story About Friendship & Jewelry If you know me at all, you know how obsessed I am with MIMOSA Handcrafted Jewelry. My collection has grown so much over the years, and every single piece tells a story. But this week, I received something that truly stopped me in my tracks. A few weeks ago, we made a trip to Baton Rouge for MIMOSA’s yearly sale. I got to visit with Madeline, the heart and soul behind the brand… anytime we go I always hope to catch her in the shoppe because she’s such a kind soul to encounter. She welcomed me in (as she always does!) and helped me build the most beautiful charm necklace while we chatted about me opening Abide the following week. She was so encouraging and supportive—exactly the kind of inspiration you need when you’re stepping into something new. Fast forward to this week—I opened the mailbox and saw a MIMOSA package. Instantly I thought, “Wait, what did I order?!” ? Even asked Grady if maybe he ordered something. NOPE. It was a surprise from Madeline. She had taken the time to design and create the most thoughtful charm for me—an ABIDE charm ?. She even hand-wrote me a card and mailed it to celebrate the studio opening. This is just who she is—generous, intentional, and wildly talented. Her jewelry is more than jewelry; it’s wearable art rooted in Louisiana culture, nature, and meaning. If you’ve never shopped with her, I cannot recommend it enough. Go visit their storefront in Baton Rouge or shop online, and tell her I sent you. I promise you’ll feel the love and care behind every piece. Madeline, thank you for inspiring me as a new business owner. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and thank you for sharing your love for jewelry! I can only hope to be half the businesswoman you are. ?

“Hey now, hey now… this is what dreams are made of!” ? Is this what Hilary Duff meant?! Because that’s exactly how I felt today when Abide was surprised with Business of the Month from the Chamber of Commerce. ?✨ All of the late nights, early mornings, money spent, and prayers whispered over this space have been worth it—but this award isn’t just mine. It’s YOURS. Every single woman who has stepped into Abide and walked out feeling stronger, more confident, and more at peace—you are the heartbeat of this studio. You’ve shown up. You’ve put in the work. You’ve trusted me with your health, your bodies, and your hearts. You are what makes Abide a dream come true. ? And today, standing here with this award, I can’t help but think… Hilary Duff was right. This really is what dreams are made of.

A Note from Me to You ✨ I just want to start by saying how thankful I am for each of you. These first two weeks at Abide have been such a success because of you!

If you know you can’t attend, please remove yourself from the waitlist so another member can enjoy that spot. As much as I would love to personally reach out each time a spot opens, it just isn’t possible while teaching every hour. Thank you for helping me make sure everyone has the chance to experience what Abide is all about. I’m so grateful for this community already—we’re just getting started! ✨

But God… The first three days of opening Abide Pilates have been the happiest and most stressful days of my life. I’ve poured my heart into making sure every person who walks through these doors feels welcome, cared for, and deeply appreciated. But today… I felt it. The AC wasn’t working like it should, it was hotter than it should be in the studio, the toilet was clogged (and I bought a plunger from dollar tree… need I say more) I’m still ironing out kinks with our software and waitlist system, and I felt the weight of guilt for not giving my kids as much of me this week. I was overwhelmed…. Then… God reminded me. Several of my 6 PM clients stayed after class just to visit and get to know me more. Later, I sat in my car and opened my messages to find texts and Facebook notes from some of you, completely out of the blue, offering encouragement. And I just cried. Every time I think, I’m not enough for this… Every time I feel overwhelmed and underqualified… But God. To every single one of you—please know you are never alone. I am always praying for you, I am always here for you, and my hope is that every time you step into Abide, you feel safe, seen, loved, and strong. Because He’s the reason we’re here. And He’s the reason we keep going.

That’s why I’m so excited to welcome Main Squeeze Juice Co. to the studio! 🍓🍍🥥 Freshly juiced, nutrient-packed, and ready for you starting Monday — this first lineup is as beautiful as it is beneficial: 🥥 Hydrate – Watermelon + coconut water + pineapple = the ultimate refreshing summer sip. 👀 Vision – Rich in carotenoids for glowing skin + healthy eyes. 🌿 Youth – Anti-inflammatory, antioxidant-rich, and a perfect breakfast boost. 🍓 Bliss – Strawberries, lemon, and a touch of agave for a hydrating, joy-filled treat. Whether you’re grabbing one after class or sipping before you hop on your reformer, these are here to make healthy living delicious — and to remind you that wellness can taste this good.

Nighttime Reflections from the Studio One of the girls snapped this photo after our last intro class today, and when I saw it—it just stopped me in my tracks. This is it. This is exactly what I envisioned when Abide was just a dream: peaceful, serene, still. Today was full—every class booked, every reformer moved on, every woman showing up and stepping into something new. And as I sit here tonight reflecting on it all, my heart is overwhelmed with thankfulness. The support I’ve felt from this community of women is something I’ll never take for granted. To each of you who has walked through our doors, taken a deep breath, moved your body, and embraced this journey—you inspire me more than you know. I’ve watched you challenge yourselves, cheer each other on, and carry strength you didn’t even know was there. I’m so proud of what’s happening here. But more than anything, I’m humbled that the Lord has placed this studio in my hands. My prayer is that Abide continues to be a place where He is glorified, and where every single woman who walks through the doors feels seen, loved, and part of something bigger. This is only the beginning… and I can’t wait to see where we go from here. ? Have you been to a class yet? What was your favorite part? #AbidePilates #NighttimeReflections #GratefulHeart #CommunityOfWomen

If you’ve felt the Pilates shakes in our intro class this week… you’re in good company. ? I just finished planning a new jump board class and I’m shaking too! Those little trembles? That’s your muscles working deep, stabilizing, and building strength you don’t get from just going through the motions. The shake shows up when you’re pushing your limits, waking up sleepy stabilizers, and creating real change. So don’t fight it—embrace it! It means you’re doing something RIGHT. #PilatesShakes #AbidePilates #ShakeToStrength #jumpboard

Hey Abide family — a quick but important note as we navigate this amazing season of growth together! We are so grateful for your excitement, your support, and the way you’ve shown up and shown out for our classes these past two weeks. It’s been incredible to see every class filled and our waitlists growing… but with that comes some reminders to keep things running smoothly for everyone: ✨ Waitlist Reminders If you’re added to a class from the waitlist, you’ll be automatically enrolled in the order you signed up, and you’ll receive an email letting you know you’re in. → Once you’re IN a class, please go back and cancel any other waitlists you’re on so someone else has a chance to get in! We had several open spots go unfilled yesterday simply because people forgot to do this. It’s a small thing that makes a big impact ? ✨ No-Shows & Cancellations Every single class yesterday had a no-show from the waitlist, while 15+ other clients were still hoping to attend. We get it — life happens — but we’re kindly asking: if you cannot make it to class, please cancel your reservation ahead of time so someone else can take that spot. If this continues, we’ll need to start enforcing a late cancel/no-show fee, which we’d love to avoid if we can ?? ✨ Payment on File We also realized that a few clients got into class from the waitlist but didn’t have a payment method on file, which meant their spot wasn’t officially secured — and yes, a few people accidentally attended class for free (oops!) ? If you’re on the waitlist, please make sure you’ve got a valid card saved to your profile so we can reserve and process your spot if you’re added. ✨ Technology Updates Coming Soon We hear you — the emails, the lack of texts, and the waiting on the app… we’re working on it. An app and text reminders are on the way! We’re in that sweet growing-pain season where we’re learning as we go, and we’re so thankful for your grace and patience. We love you, we’re cheering for you, and we are committed to building a beautiful, seamless experience here at Abide — one class (and one kind waitlist cancellation!) at a time ?? — Shelby & The Abide Team

✨ HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: DAY TWO AT ABIDE! ✨ We are officially rolling into our second day of classes at Abide Pilates and I am still in awe of what’s unfolding inside these studio walls. Thank you for being part of it. Here’s your reminder of everything you need to know before class: ? Doors will unlock 10 minutes before your class begins. Please come in through the front entrance at that time. We can’t wait to greet you! ? Parking is available directly in front of the studio and in the grassy overflow lot behind the building.

If you need socks, we’ve got some beautiful new ones available in studio. ??‍♀️ This class is designed to make you feel welcome, supported, and strong — whether it’s your first time or your second visit. Let’s keep growing together. ?? Please, please cancel your reservation if you’re unable to attend! We have full classes and long waitlists, and your spot could make someone’s day. Canceling gives another woman the chance to step in and experience something beautiful. ? And just like last time — every single name on tomorrow’s class list has been prayed over. I don’t take it lightly that you chose to spend your time here. I’ve prayed for your health, your strength, and that you leave feeling lighter, stronger, and so deeply seen.

? A little housekeeping from Abide Pilates ?✨ As we grow (thanks to YOU!), we’re continuing to streamline everything behind the scenes to give you the best experience possible. A few important updates to know: 1️⃣ Waitlists are now automated! You’ll be automatically added to class in the order of your position on the list. This helps keep things fair for everyone, so just keep an eye on your email/texts if you’re hoping for a spot and be sure to have your preferred payment method on file! 2️⃣ New “Book for a Friend” option! (No more booking your name 2x!) You can now reserve a class for a friend when you book—but please remember: ➡️ Every client must have their own account ➡️ Each person must complete their own waiver This is SO important for legal and safety reasons. Thank you for helping us protect everyone who walks through our doors! 3️⃣ Can’t make class? Please cancel! This helps avoid late cancel/no-show fees and gives someone else a chance to get their spot. If you're on multiple waitlists and get into one class, please remove yourself from the others so we can keep the schedule flowing smoothly! We are beyond grateful for your support and excitement. You’re the reason this space is what it is—and we’re not done yet! ? We’ll continue improving and adjusting as we go so that every class at Abide feels seamless, supportive, and special.

A few important updates to know: 1️⃣ Waitlists are now automated! You’ll be automatically added to class in the order of your position on the list. This helps keep things fair for everyone, so just keep an eye on your email/texts if you’re hoping for a spot and be sure to have your preferred payment method on file! 2️⃣ New “Book for a Friend” option! (No more booking your name 2x!) You can now reserve a class for a friend when you book—but please remember: ➡️ Every client must have their own account ➡️ Each person must complete their own waiver This is SO important for legal and safety reasons. Thank you for helping us protect everyone who walks through our doors! 3️⃣ Can’t make class? Please cancel! This helps avoid late cancel/no-show fees and gives someone else a chance to get their spot. If you're on multiple waitlists and get into one class, please remove yourself from the others so we can keep the schedule flowing smoothly! We are beyond grateful for your support and excitement. You’re the reason this space is what it is—and we’re not done yet! 🖤 We’ll continue improving and adjusting as we go so that every class at Abide feels seamless, supportive, and special. With love and lots of Pilates shakes, Shelby
As Abide continues to grow and move toward a full weekly class schedule, I want to start building a list of preferred collaborators for the studio! What does that mean? If you own a business that aligns with our heart and mission at Abide, I’d love to work with you! I’m looking for local, female-centered businesses in areas like: ✨ Women’s health providers ✨ Beauty industry professionals ✨ Wellness and holistic health services ✨ Healthy food and drink businesses ✨ Creative or educational offerings that benefit women’s physical, mental, or spiritual health My vision is to host monthly Saturday events featuring a special Pilates class followed by a demo, mini-workshop, pop-up shop, or speaker—something fun, meaningful, and supportive of the women in our community. If this sounds like something you’d love to be part of, please drop a comment below or message me directly so we can connect! Let’s support one another, shop local, and build strong, rooted women—together. ? #AbidePilates #SupportLocal #WomenSupportingWomen #WellnessCommunity #DeridderLA

WOW. Just WOW. Today was the very first official day of classes at Abide Pilates, and it was so much bigger and better than I ever could’ve dreamed or imagined. I started the day just praying that *one* class would fill… and every single one was FULL or WAITLISTED. ? To each and every one of you who stepped into the studio today—thank you. I pray you felt seen, loved, and strong (with a healthy dose of the Pilates shakes ?). I hope you left feeling better than when you came, and I truly hope you come back. To those of you still waiting to get in: hang tight! I’ll be posting MORE CLASS TIMES tomorrow, I'll post all of our prices and membership options, and I promise to respond to your messages once I’ve had some sleep and made sure this whole day wasn’t just a dream. From the bottom of my heart—THANK YOU. I’m overwhelmed, overjoyed, and so incredibly grateful. This is just the beginning. If you came today please comment your pictures below and let me know your favorite part of class! #AbidePilates #ThankYou #FirstDayJoy #PilatesInDeRidder #SmallTownStrong

TOMORROW is the day! ? Our very first classes at Abide Pilates Studio begin, and we are so ready to welcome you into the studio for your Intro to Abide class! Here’s everything you need to know before you arrive: ✨ Doors will remain locked until 10 minutes before your scheduled class time. Once unlocked, you’ll come in through the front entrance of the building. ✨ Parking is available directly in front of the studio, and there’s overflow parking in the grassy lot behind the building (look for the sign!). If you’re coming through the alley from Shirley Street, you’ll also see a directional sign to guide you. ✨ Be sure to bring your water bottle, grip socks (we’ve got some available for purchase if you need!), and come with an open mind and an excited spirit! This class is a gentle introduction—not a full workout—designed to help you feel confident and comfortable on the reformer. We’ll walk through how the equipment works, go over safety, and teach a few foundational movements. If your plans change and you can’t make it, please remember to cancel your spot so someone on the waitlist can jump in! I’ve prayed over each of your names and prepared this space with so much care. I can’t wait to meet you, teach you, and grow with you. Tomorrow marks the beginning of something really special. Let’s do this! ? #IntroToAbide #AbidePilates #DeRidderPilates #PilatesStudioLaunch #PilatesJourneyBegins #AbideInMovement #abideinmovement

This morning, I paused in the stillness of the studio—no music, no movement, just quiet. And in that quiet, I prayed over every single name on the list for our first classes this Wednesday. Every detail in this space has been touched by purpose and prayer, and today it feels like all the hard work is finally coming together. I truly can’t wait to open these doors and welcome you in. If you’re on that list—know you’ve been prayed for. And if you’re still waiting for your chance to step into Abide… I promise your time is coming. #AbidePilates #FaithAndFitness #PilatesStudio #StudioVibes #ReformerPilates #PilatesLife #StillnessAndStrength #WellnessWithPurpose #SmallTownStudio #LouisianaPilates

I don’t even have the words… but I’ll try. To every single person who booked a class for our very first day at Abide next Wednesday—thank you. THANK YOU.

3 Game-Changing Pilates Habits You’ll Learn at Abide If you're new to reformer Pilates (or even if you’ve been at it for a while), there are a few key habits I teach every client that truly change the way you move—both in class and in your everyday life. At Abide, we’re not just going through the motions—we’re practicing with purpose. Here are 3 game-changing habits you’ll start building from your very first class: 1️⃣ Engage Your Core – Your core is your powerhouse. Learning how to properly activate it brings strength, stability, and support to every movement. 2️⃣ Focus on Your Breath – We pair breath with movement to deepen the work and quiet the mind. Breath is your anchor—it keeps you present and connected. 3️⃣ Move with Control – Slow, mindful movement makes all the difference. It’s not about how fast you move, but how well you move. That’s where the magic (and muscle) happens... Just wait until you start activating muscles you didn't even know you had! These simple but powerful habits are the foundation of everything we teach. Once they click, your Pilates practice transforms—and so do you. ?

Today has been full of exciting progress at the studio, so I figured it was time for a little face-to-face update! In case you’ve been wondering if I’m a real person… or if this place is ever actually opening ? — the answer is YES and YES. It’s happening!

A little insight on why I do Pilates… I’ve struggled with severe back pain for years. Last week, I was so busy that I didn’t get a single workout in—and by the end of the week, the pain was so bad I was crying myself to sleep. ? This morning, I got back on the reformer for one workout… and I’m standing here pain free. THIS is why I believe in this work. Pilates is truly life changing, and it’s why I’m so passionate about sharing it with you. Your body was designed to feel strong, supported, and pain free. I’d love to help you get there.

If you drive by and see my car there at all hours of the day (and let’s be honest... probably night, too), just know—I’m putting in the work to open these doors for YOU! ??

I’ll be answering the TWO questions everyone’s been asking… **“When’s opening day?”** and **“What are the prices?** ?Hoping I can find someone to come replace the busted window ? Be watching for a chance to pop in and try a FREE class as I run instructor training and fine-tune everything! There are decorations to hang, photos to shoot, and about a million little details to wrap up... but I’m giving myself a hard deadline of next week to knock it all out. The finish line is in sight, friends—we are officially in the HOME STRETCH! Pray for me as I prepare to tackle all of the things next week! What are you most excited for next week?

Just a dream… until it wasn’t. For so long, Abide felt like a dream tucked deep in my heart—one of those “maybe one day” kinds of dreams. I never really believed it would happen, and then suddenly, literally overnight, it became a reality. I’ve often wrestled with how quickly it all unfolded. There were moments I worried that it happened so fast I didn’t even have time to stop, pray, and ask God, “Is this really what You have for me?” BUT GOD. He has shown up in every single step since day one. Through people, through timing, through quiet nudges and loud confirmations—He has made His presence in Abide so clear. It overwhelms me, in the best way, to see how mighty and intentional He is. Today, while my mom and I were out, we stopped into Little Willow—and right there, sitting on a shelf, was a hand-drawn sign that said Abide. A wink from Heaven. A reminder that He’s in it all. I’m just in awe. This is His studio, and I’m just grateful to get to steward it. ? #AbidePilates #ButGod #FaithfulInTheDetails #DreamsIntoReality

"So... what should I wear to Pilates?" This is one of the most common questions I get—and I love it, because it means you're already picturing yourself on the reformer! 🤍✨ The most important thing to wear is WHATEVER YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE IN. Truly. If you feel good, you'll move with more confidence—and that's the goal. That said, because of the nature of the reformer and the precision of Pilates movements, I do recommend fitted, sweat-wicking clothing like leggings or biker shorts and a snug top that won’t shift around during class. This helps you (and your instructor 😉) stay aware of alignment and form. 👣 The only requirement? Grip socks! These help with safety and stability on the machine. I’ll have some available for purchase in the studio, so don’t worry if you forget yours. Want to know what I personally love? 🖤 Activewear: CRZ Yoga- us.crzyoga.com Buff Bunny- www.buffbunny.com The Sweat Society- shopsweatsociety.com 🧦 Grip Socks: Lucky Honey- lucky honey.nyc Move Active- move active.co So whether you're a leggings girlie, a biker short fan, or somewhere in between—just come as you are. You’re already doing something amazing for your body and soul. #AbidePilates #ReformerReady #PilatesStyle #GripSocksRequired #AbideInMovement
"Can I do Pilates if I have a back, neck, leg, or any other injury?" This is one of the most frequent questions we get—and the answer is often yes! 🧘‍♀️ Pilates is well known for being a gentle, low-impact form of movement that strengthens the core, improves posture, and enhances overall stability. These qualities are exactly why many physical therapists and doctors recommend Pilates as part of a rehabilitation plan. Reformers, especially, provide a supportive and controlled environment that can help people safely rebuild strength and mobility after injury. At Abide Pilates, we believe in moving with intention and compassion. We’ll always meet you where you are and help guide you through movement that honors your body’s unique needs and abilities. If you're recovering from injury or dealing with chronic pain, you are not alone—and Pilates might be just what your body has been waiting for. 💛 👉 However, please consult your physician or physical therapist before beginning any new exercise program, especially if you’re recovering from an injury. While Pilates can be incredibly healing, it’s important that your movement plan is personalized and medically safe. Tell us below what injuries you are excited about overcoming with Abide! 👇🏻

Abide Pilates: Behind the Scenes — Grip Sock Edition ? You know it’s getting real when the grip socks arrive. ? Today, our very first shipment of socks made their grand entrance—along with some much-needed equipment, studio curtains, and hardware. Which means... this weekend is going to be FULL of hanging, building, organizing, and maybe a little dancing in socks on the mats. ?? And let’s be honest—the real question is… Which pair of socks are you claiming as YOURS? ? Will you go classic black? Blush and breezy? Or are you here for the bold ones that say, “I survived Shelby’s House of Pain”? ? (Kidding… kind of.) Every little box that arrives is one step closer to Opening Day, and I can’t wait to have you in this space we’re building with so much love (and maybe a tiny bit of sweat + sawdust). Tell me your sock style below ?? and get ready… Abide is almost here. ? #AbidePilates #BehindTheScenes #GripSockEdition #PilatesPrep #OpeningSoon #DeRidderPilates #StrengthWithGrace

Getting to Know Abide ✨ Let’s talk about the name—and the tiny bird you’ll see in our logo. When dreaming up this studio, I knew the name had to reflect something deeper than just movement. Abide comes from John 15:7–10, a passage about remaining (abiding) in Christ—letting His Word dwell within us, reform our desires, and direct our will. That’s what I hope happens inside this studio: that women walk in and feel safe, seen, and spiritually restored—body and soul. You may have noticed the hummingbird in our branding—and that’s no accident. Hummingbirds symbolize resilience, joy, and the ability to move with grace through life’s challenges. They remind us to be still in spirit, even while in motion. They’re also extra special to me because my mom and both of my grandmothers love hummingbirds. Every time I see one, I feel surrounded by their strength and love. Now… if my husband had named the studio, we’d be calling it “Shelby’s House of Pain.” ? He was DEAD SET on that!!!! (Tempting—but not exactly the vibe.) At Abide, we do embrace the shake, but always with grace. ???
