New Logo, Website and Company Identity Rallies Members, Trainers and Entire Communities Around the Tagline: “Come as You Are, Leave Stronger”.

PHOENIX — Jabz Boxing just leveled up.

Continuing to elevate the fitness brand on the exercise scene, the refresh presents Jabz with a modernized look and revamped messaging. The boxing-inspired, full-body circuit style workout studio announced its rebranding today, coinciding with the launch of its new JabzBoxing.com website.

“Inside the four walls of our gyms, the soul…the spirit and vibe remain unchanged. This is the perfect time for us to present our brand in a bold, updated way that carries us into the future,” said Danielle Scott, Jabz Boxing Brand President. “The new look and messaging help us signify we are stronger together, and that truly defines what the brand is and where it is headed.”

Representing a new standard for group fitness brands, the new look initially is coming to life through Jabz Boxing’s social media platforms, its website, including location pages, new marketing collateral and with the release of a redesigned logo.

Offering the same unrivaled HIIT classes clients have come to love, Jabz’s new look and feel will advance the brand and reaffirm its powerful resonance in the communities it serves. The updated color palette, which utilizes striking gold and forest green accents against black, white and gray backdrops, provides a mature, modern look for the industry’s leading boxing-inspired boutique gym.

Inspiring strength both in and out of the ring, Jabz immerses members in an energizing environment where workouts are led by supportive, nationally certified coaches. No matter who you are, your background or current fitness level, you belong in the Jabz ring. Its new branding, logo and company website better represent Jabz and its invitation to the public to “Come as You Are, Leave Stronger.”

The brand refresh arrives at a pivotal time in the growth of Jabz. With locations open in Arizona, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Utah and several franchise agreements in the development pipeline, Jabz is poised for continued expansion into new markets across the United States. Ideal candidates are passionate about fitness and entrepreneurship while sharing the five core values of Jabz Boxing: inclusivity, innovation, community, confidence and strength.

Longtime Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins Multi-Unit Operator To Bring High-End Day Spa Franchise to Raleigh-Durham.

DENVER — The Woodhouse Day Spa, a high-end day spa franchise, announced today that it has inked a franchise agreement to develop a location in the Raleigh-Durham area of North Carolina. The new spa, which is slated to open in Winter 2022, will officially expand the brand’s footprint into its 22^nd state.

Spearheading The Woodhouse Day Spa’s North Carolina development are Sonal Patel and Esha Ray. Sonal is a distinguished multi-unit franchisee with more than 17 years of franchise industry experience, previously operating six Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins locations for 10 years. Since 2014, she has owned and operated two JEI Learning Centers in Cary, North Carolina, where she currently resides. Esha is a global supply chain expert, food importer and investor who will be Sonal’s business partner in this new venture. The two entrepreneurs are very passionate about luxury spas and have traveled all over the world for the best experiences.

“Being a longtime franchise operator and somewhat of a high-end luxury spa connoisseur, I was thrilled when I found The Woodhouse Day Spa because it felt like two of my worlds colliding,” said Sonal Patel. “I love that the brand provides a distinctive, transformative spa experience that you don’t have to travel hours or across the world to get to; it’s an accessible destination to relax and immerse yourself in a peaceful environment. Esha and I can’t wait to bring the first Woodhouse Day Spa to North Carolina and create a special place for local residents to practice their self-care, which has never been more important.”

Following The Woodhouse Day Spa’s acquisition by Radiance Holdings in July of last year, the brand is aggressively targeting key markets throughout the U.S. for franchise development, including North Carolina. In addition to Raleigh-Durham, The Woodhouse Day Spa is eyeing other areas across The Triangle to develop future spas, as well as statewide in Charlotte, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Asheville and Wilmington. The leading spa franchise recently opened its newest location in Indianapolis, Indiana last month and expects to open 11 more locations by the end of 2021, including one in Hoboken, New Jersey this May.

Founded in Victoria, Texas in 2001, The Woodhouse Day Spa operates as a high-end day spa franchise that brings a resort experience to a neighborhood setting. The brand prides itself on providing its guests with a tranquil and transformational spa experience with well-appointed amenities, luxurious relaxation spaces, high-end retail and several signature services such as the Therpeutic Stone Massage, Organic Seaweed Leaf Wrap, Warm Agave Nectar Pedicure and Lavender Dreams sleep treatment.

The Woodhouse Day Spa is a part of Radiance Holdings, a company representing a collection of premier brands in the $64 billion beauty, wellness and self-care industry, including Sola Salon Studios and BeautyHive™. With 65 locations in 21 states such as Texas, Colorado, California, New York, Ohio and Florida, The Woodhouse Day Spa has proven that its concept resonates with consumers around the U.S.

With a united purpose of transforming lives, The Woodhouse Day Spa strives to make a difference in the lives of their guests and team members each day.
