Boutique Fitness Studio CityRow on Plans for Expansion
CEO and Founder of CityRow, Helaine Knapp, talks about the boutique fitness club's first franchise in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The location is a natural fit considering Knapp is a University of Michigan alumnus.
CityRow is partnering with Franworth, a franchise growth equity firm, to help with the expansion. The company was recommended to Knapp by former NFL player Dhani Jones.
