Abby Ryan Mooring is from a really small quaint town of Bath, NC (with roughly 250 people) Never in her wildest dreams would she had thought she’d walk New York Fashion Week, London Fashion Week and later sign with several agencies, do high fashion editorials, commercials, music videos and now crossing over from modeling to acting. She had never thought that she would leave her small town and drive across the country to Los Angeles! Sports had been her life…volleyball, basketball and softball since she was five….well with this job she can wear her cleats and heels and She says
You can be anything if you work hard! I love all the people I’ve met along the way so far: trainers, photographers, models, agencies, agents, hair and makeup artists, publicists, managers, actors and actresses.
She has been doing modeling consistently for the last three years now… She was scouted her senior year of high school at Northside High School for a basketball scholarship but as women in sports aren’t paid much, so she decided to pursue modeling after a friend saw her senior pictures and a Virginia modeling agency contacted her through Instagram. She had never thought about it honestly so she decided to try it and do an online college through Ecu and major in communications.
Her high school Coach Michelle Leathers helped her pave the way with discipline and never stopping attitude #stillstandingstillstrong mentality. She believes in eating smart (She eats gluten free, low carbs and stay away from dairy) She also does Juice plus (so she gets the fruits, veggies, berries and omegas that she might miss out on from them every day) during COVID she switched to online circuit workouts which is more about body resistance movements and lighter weights.
She has been working with several agents and agencies @theblockagency (Tn) @nymmg (Nyc/Ca) @therossagencyinc (Tx) @nichemodelsandtalent (Hawaii) @soverneigntalent (La) and her manager and encourager @mcmmgt (Ca) with Marina Masowietsky! She is now crossing over to acting as well. As far as socials go she only uses Instagram @abbyrmooring. She loves spending time with her family, friends and her dog hiking different trails around Los Angeles. God first and her family and close friends have been very supportive .Her mom suffers from lupus so she advocates for people to donate to finding a cure @lupusorg her mother has been her strongest supporter and a rock through her journey.
Women Fitness President Ms. Namita Nayyar catches up with Abby Ryan Mooring, exceptionally talented Fashion model/Actress, here she talks about her workout, diet, beauty secrets and her journey as a successful model.
Namita Nayyar:
You were born in Bath, North Carolina. You have been playing sports volleyball, basketball, and softball since you were five years of age. In your senior year of high school at Northside High School, you received a basketball scholarship. Later you decided to pursue modeling and walked the ramp at New York Fashion Week and London Fashion Week. This later propelled your career to the height where you have been at the top of the world of modeling. Tell us more about your professional journey of exceptional hard work, tenacity, and endurance?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
My New York City agency MMG got me booked with several fashion designers to do New York Fashion Week that was a surreal experience than two weeks later I was off to London Fashion Week to walk in a few shows there. An unforgettable experience. London is so beautiful! One of my favorite places I’ve traveled so far!
Namita Nayyar:
You are the one of the leading social media personalities, a professional model & actress. How do you manage such a remarkable multi-dimensional lifestyle?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
I have help, my mom helps keep me straight. It is hard I do get stressed out. I pray, mediate and do yoga. I remind myself I’ve done harder things, my first editorial shoot was in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina with Mindy Lee Allendar(one of my first and favorite photographers )we climbed a mountain and did six outfit changes on the way up …from dusk to dark…that was killer!
Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine you may wish to share?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
During Covid I had to change it up …I mostly follow different circuit training workouts. Other days if I want to do something different it will usually be yoga, hiking, paddle boarding or pick-up games of sports. Now that I’m in Los Angeles I’m working on learning different stunts and I am working out @dogpound.
Namita Nayyar:
How do you train your abs? One secret to your toned body.
Abby Ryan Mooring:
Again, circuit training is amazing for abs, those workouts give you a toned core. A secret about my toned body is eating healthy foods. The saying about abs are born in the kitchen is true. Aka you are what you eat! I love @hellofresh vegetarian meals!
