fitmob Launches in Seattle, Austin, Dallas and Portland Offering Unlimited "All You Can Sweat" Workouts at Hundreds of Top Studios

Founded by Lyft investor and former Snapfish CEO/cofounder, Raj Kapoor, fitmob launches to empower people with fitness freedom

fitmob, the company redefining the gym for the digital age, has now launched in Seattle as well as Austin, Dallas, and Portland. Founded by Lyft investor and former Snapfish CEO/co-founder, Raj Kapoor, fitmob is out to disrupt the legacy gymmodel and enable fitness enthusiasts to get out of their ‘box’ and explore the best workout experiences their city has to offer.

For only $99 per month, fitmob Passport owners gain access to the top studios, trainers and boutique gyms around town, and can enjoy an unlimited number of workouts. Members can take classes at top studios like Pure Barre, Orange Theory and Urban Yoga Spa, in Seattle as well as workout at any of fitmob’s partner studios or gyms around the country.

“Fitmob’s partnerships with local fitness businesses are a win-win. Studios and gyms fill their classes and gain exposure to fitmob’s community and generate more revenue for small businesses,” said Petra Thompson, fitmob’s local Seattle Mob Boss and former leader at Lululemon Athletica. “fitmob members, known as ‘Mobbers,’ get access to the best fitness experiences their city has to offer at an affordable price. Plus, now users don’t need to juggle multiple studio memberships and the hassle that comes with payments for each.”

“Keeping workouts diversified is key to staying motivated and getting fit, but belonging tomultiple studios is complicated and expensive,” said fitmob co-founder and CEO Raj Kapoor. “With Passport, we’re giving people a way to belong to all the top studios and boutique gymsin Seattle, like Pure Barre and Orange Theory, for one simple, affordable price.”

Unlike other offerings, fitmob hand-selects only the best fitness studios, enables mobbers to see who’s coming to class, making it social and fun, and empowers participants to rate and review classes.
