Their shared passion for the importance of health and wellness was evident and the synergy between their two businesses became clear.

In late 2009, Hoffman and Connolly entered a joint venture to bring their two businesses together to form the nation's first and only family focused exercise and fitness store aimed at giving the whole family fun and motivational exercise options that suit each member of the family's age and lifestyle.
