We’re expanding! In this episode, we dive into the why behind District H’s second location, what makes our model different from other gyms, and how we plan to serve the Oak Forest community with a professional, relationship-driven approach to fitness.

Here’s what we cover:

- The big announcement of Oak Forest

- Why our model works beyond one gym

- How scalability and variety create better results for clients and coaches

- The importance of staff buy-in and culture
