Abby Payson

Founder & Instructor

Abby journey into fitness began in 2018 after the birth of her first daughter, when she fell in love with barre and the way movement brought her back to herself. A lifelong dancer and beauty industry professional, she balanced early mornings and late nights teaching barre while working full-time in corporate cosmetics. When the world paused during the pandemic, Abby leaned into change—leaving her corporate role, becoming a certified medical esthetician, and opening her first business: a boutique spa.

After welcoming her second child, Abby’s priorities shifted. Wanting more time at home with her kids and more time doing what she loved, she went all-in on fitness. In 2023, she became a certified group fitness instructor and began teaching strength, sculpt, barre, cardio, and boxing. Her passion grew with every class—especially the ones that left her legs shaking and her heart full.

Abby dreamed of creating a space where women could feel strong, inspired, and supported. That dream became Pulse—a studio built on community, sweat, and the power of showing up for yourself. Let’s Pulse. Sculpt. Glow!
