Abby Gregory Jackson’s passion for wellness took root right here in Hartsville, where her journey began as a young teen inspired by health, movement, and a desire to help others thrive. With over 30 years of experience as a licensed physical therapist, Abby brings a deep understanding of the body, movement, and healing to every class she teaches.
For the past 15 years, she’s embraced yoga, Pilates, and barre as part of her personal wellness practice—finding joy in their power to strengthen, center, and restore. She is also a certified SUP (Stand-Up Paddleboard) and SUP Yoga instructor, combining her love for nature and mindful movement to create unique experiences on the water.
Known for her warm, encouraging style, Abby is driven by a heart for connection and a genuine love of seeing others grow in confidence and strength. When she’s not teaching or working with clients, you’ll find her planning wellness retreats, exploring the outdoors through hiking and backpacking, or off on her next travel adventure. Abby is thrilled to bring her passion and experience home to The Studio and to help build a space where movement meets meaning.

Jordan has been a full-time personal trainer and group fitness coach for 9 years! She has worked with all ages and all levels. This is a career for Jordan, not a hobby or side gig. Personal training and group fitness are her entire world (besides her fur baby Apollo)
Jordan is certified through NASM and is also an award winning bodybuilder.
"I specialize in building connections with my clients and teaching them things that are outside of the box! I utilize all different forms of training to provide MAXIMUM results while developing friendships with each client of mine."
"My parents and grandparents were all trainers and working in gyms, and that inspired me to get involved in the industry. Now, having created a name for myself and built my platform, I feel I am where I am destined to be, doing what I'm supposed to be doing. Knowing that my clients trust me and choose ME to be their trainer warms my heart and makes me want to be the best example and role model I can be for them."
"I have/still suffer from self-image issues. It actually put me in the hospital a couple of years ago. Even professionals have their struggles. I want people to know that I am human just like them, and I try my hardest to love myself and be the best trainer I can be even through my own struggles."
