Gabbie Hanna becomes fitness instructor

TikTok and Instagram star Gabbie Hanna made her fans worried after disappearing from social media in January 2023. Almost a year later, fans found that the TikTok star had moved back to her home state and become a fitness instructor.

Gabbie Hanna, 32, is an influencer who garnered popularity on the now-defunct video app Vine, and went on to develop a following on both YouTube and TikTok, as well as launch a music career. With millions of followers across multiple platforms, she has been a known influencer for over a decade.

In August 2022, Gabbie worried fans after posting over a hundred TikTok videos in one day, in which she discussed a variety of topics, including religion and death. She was also criticized for comments many described as racist.

Gabbie hasn’t been active on any of her social media platforms since January 2023. However, she was recently spotted for the first time in 9 months as her new career was revealed.

In December 2023, Gabbie appeared on the Instagram of the local YMCA in her hometown of New Castle, Pennsylvania. The post was made to announce that Gabbie had been hired as their “newest instructor”.

“Hey everyone! Get ready to dance, move, and groove because Gabbie Hanna’s classes are about to kick off TONIGHT!,” the statement said along with a graphic listing Zumba, Ballet Body, and Stretch and Breath as some of Gabbie’s classes.

Gabbie also appeared in another post on the YMCA’s Instagram, where she promoted one of her classes. Fans were quick to comment on the post, saying that Gabbie “looked great” and “has the light in her eyes again.”

One person wrote: “You look great, so healthy! Hope your classes fill up!!”

“Gabbie look at you go! You got this and you also look great!” another person wrote

A third person commented: “u look so happy and healthy! so excited for u!”

In March 2023, Gabbie appeared on Prince Ea’s podcast Sauna Sessions where she talked about her views on social media and why she hasn’t been as active on her pages.

She said: “I’m trying to work up the strength to actually delete [her social media pages]. But I can’t figure out if that’s what I’m supposed to do or not. Specifically TikTok. Because I feel like TikTok is just like the cesspool the worst of the worst.”
