Pvolve Announces Franchise Deal for New York City's Upper East Side

Emerging Functional Fitness Franchise to Debut New Studio Location in Fall 2024

NEW YORK, Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Pvolve, the omni-channel fitness company with an innovative, science-led method that pairs functional movement with proprietary equipment, is expanding its hometown footprint with the signing of their latest franchise agreement for New York City's Upper East Side. This location is the result of a partnership between four area locals, Jessica and Mike Wenger, along with Samantha Diaz-Hennessey and her fiancé Ryan Grealy.

Jessica has spent the majority of her career in the boutique fitness space, Samantha, as a nurse practitioner, while both of their husbands have been involved in the finance sector. What all four share is a belief in the Pvolve Method and the franchise offering, as well as the viability of a studio on New York City's Upper East Side.

"I've devoted my professional career to the preventative care of patients, which has given me such a deep connection with the Pvolve Method and the proven lifestyle benefits it offers members," said Samantha. "I'm beyond excited to be able to partner with like-minded friends to deliver this functional fitness method that helps improve longevity and the well-being of its members."

The Upper East Side location joins the brand's inaugural studio in Soho, which is one of three studios owned and operated by Pvolve Corporate. All four franchisees see further expansion opportunities throughout the city's five boroughs. 

"I'm excited to see Pvolve expand its reach in the heart of our home market," said Pvolve President Julie Cartwright. "The Upper East Side community is a sophisticated consumer who can't be fooled by fad fitness trends. Pvolve is redefining what fitness can mean for its members; we are committed to delivering the highest caliber of workout, one that is science-led, overseen by a Clinical Advisory Board, and delivered by highly credentialed trainers. We have no doubt that this community will value this commitment and see the Pvolve difference first-hand."

Cartwright credits their innovative approach to functional fitness as the reason for the growth the franchise has experienced this year. Coupled with Pvolve's multi-revenue stream business model, proprietary resistance equipment, hybrid class offerings, and high-level brand endorsements, Cartwright and her team agree that their NYC presence is just beginning.

"Pvolve was instrumental in my physical recovery after a hip injury, helping me to regain a sense of self on my way back to marathon training," said Jessica. "I know this studio will be able to help so many others on their health journeys and push them to become their best selves, without putting their bodies through the wringer."
