Friday Flourish (active full body flow) was just what I needed to start my day off in the best way! This class is not only challenging and a great workout but relaxing at the same time. It also gives you an incredible full body stretch and because of Abide I am more flexible than I've been in years! I will keep coming back for the ultimate self care, thank you Shelby!

This beautiful studio has become one of the main things I look forward to each week. I can’t imagine going a week without attending a class now. The atmosphere is so peaceful and I have never once felt uncomfortable even with having zero experience with Pilates beforehand. Im so grateful for what this studio has done for me. If you haven’t checked out a class yet you are missing out!

Amazing Pilates studio! You feel welcomed the second you walk into the door! I've never done Pilates but after an intro class I was hooked! Each class is unique and such a good workout. I'm able to do so many different things I wasn't able to do a couple months ago when starting. It's so fun to see the progress everyone makes as you workout together. It's definitely a community that is positive and so fun to be apart of!

This studio has helped me in so many ways. I came in with zero knowledge of pilates, pirates? Shelby broke down every move and then still found ways to challenge me, daily! She is a breath of fresh air and I find it a personal goal to get the pilates shakes! If you're hesitant on this place, I am telling you, this is your sign to go all in! I'll see you on the reformer :)

I've been going to Abide for 8 weeks now and I am loving it! Its such a welcoming and comfortable safe space. We are challenged and encouraged every day. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor than Shelby to welcome me into pilates. Not to mention how gorgeous the studio is!

I’m beyond grateful for Shelby and Rylee as well as all the incredible women at Abide. I began Pilates just six weeks postpartum, and I’m truly amazed at how quickly my core and pelvic floor have strengthened and stabilized. It’s been such a rewarding journey, and the gentle movement has been truly transformative, allowing me to rebuild strength safely while honoring my body’s needs.

Before stepping into Abide, I had never really done a full-on pilates class. During my introductory class, I fell in love! The studio itself is an incredibly beautiful and peaceful space. Shelby serves as a welcoming presence and is able to knowledgeably instruct participants with all skill levels. Now I can’t imagine a week without my pilates classes. It has been such a great challenge physically and gives your mind a chance to truly just focus on moving your body. Every aspect of Abide is so well thought out and I’m so grateful to have this safe, calming space to workout in DeRidder!

I have loved going to Abide Pilates! Shelby makes everyone feel welcome and comfortable! I’ve grown both mentally and physically in such a short amount of time. Specifically “Foundation (lower body&core)” is my favorite class, while difficult I still somehow manage to leave smiling and feeling better than when I walked in.

The class today was awesome! I worked muscles I haven’t worked in forever. I definitely felt every move and can’t wait to come back. I appreciate that Shelby took time to help me with each move as a first timer. Also the ladies in class made me feel welcome and glad I decided to give it a try.

Tonight was my first class at Abide and I absolutely loved every second of it. I’m 6 months pregnant and Shelby accommodated me to ensure I had a safe and efficient workout! I can’t wait to continue my pilates journey at Abide and am so grateful to have this studio here in DeRidder! 🩷

✨ Abide Pilates is an absolute gem! ✨
From the moment I walked in, the space radiated calm elegance — everything feels intimate, pristine, and luxurious. The class itself was incredible — challenging yet deeply restorative. Shelby is an amazing instructor, you can feel the love she pours into the class and the beautiful space. And can we talk about the lavender-infused towels? Total game changer that made me feel pampered from start to finish. I’m in love and can’t wait to go back!

The intro class was perfect! As a 50+ woman, attending her first-time Pilates class, and having not exercised in YEARS, I felt welcomed and supported. If you’re unsure or lacking confidence, don’t let that keep you from trying it! Do it, girls! You won’t regret it!
