"Wow, what a journey it has been! I will never forget the day when I had my first phone call with Zac Celaya [RockBox Fitness Vice President of Development]. I was in and out of over 35 gyms in a 3 month timespan trying to find my perfect fit. Do you know what stood out with RockBox? I could pick up the phone and call at any time. I knew Zac was going to answer. I was about to make the biggest decision of my life at 25 years old and Zac promptly [answered] each one [of my questions] with an honest and genuine answer. It is very hard to overlook great morals and someone who is honest with you. The franchise worked with me every step of the way! Being 25, you can only imagine how much guidance I needed through this journey. RockBox was with me weekly and some weeks daily. We knew we had to stall to let this pandemic settle. I had someone ask me the other day ‘Are you nervous about opening a business?’ I thought to myself…I have never been nervous the whole time. 1) I have been preparing myself for this my whole life, and 2) I have had an amazing franchise by my side. They were not going to let me fail."

"Becoming a business owner has been one of the greatest challenges, learning opportunities and triumphs we have experienced. We have been able to impact so many lives in a positive way through health and fitness. Ultimately, that is what we started out to do and to see the hundreds of people that we’ve touched and to hear their testimonials is the ultimate reward for us. As a couple, this was our first endeavor of doing business together and that has presented some fun challenges, but also a great way for us to learn about ourselves and each other even more. We have been fortunate to have an incredible staff alongside of us in our journey and growing in our own skills as managers and leaders has been rewarding as well. There is no better feeling than walking into your studio and seeing the lights flashing, hearing the music pumping and feeling the positive energy of your members! We are so lucky to have that experience every day. The RockBox home office continues to evolve and offer enhanced support. It is wonderful to see their leadership and investment in the company. We are incredibly optimistic about the future of our studio as well as this brand!"

"All the years of Mike doing boxing as his offseason training, we went with him sometimes. We saw all the agility training and the strength and conditioning his former boxing coach would do. I’ve always loved boxing, but I was never like ‘I’m going to get up there and put on some gloves and start hitting bags too’ until I came to RockBox. It’s been amazing."

"I left the corporate world, I was in pharmaceutical sales for 14 years. I was feeling pretty uninspired and unmotivated in my career. I was making a good living, but knew there was more to life. I get so much joy making direct connections with people and love helping people succeed and be their best self. That along with my passion for fitness - RockBox seemed like a perfect fit. I love health and fitness and anything active and took the plunge and bought a franchise. I was the 5th franchise to open in the US. If you truly want to help others change their lives and have a lot of fun doing it than owning a RockBox is for you!"
