Job description
At STRIDE Fitness, you are not stepping into a job. You are building a performance-driven business for your community.
Denver, Colorado continues to grow as one of the most active and health-conscious cities in the United States. The city attracts driven professionals, entrepreneurs, outdoor athletes, and families who prioritize performance, longevity, and an active lifestyle. With a booming economy, a rapidly growing population, and immediate access to world-class outdoor recreation including trail running, cycling, hiking, and skiing, the energy in Denver is undeniable.
What Denver does not yet have is a premium, performance-based strength and cardio (HIIT) studio that combines treadmill interval training, strength work, and a dynamic recovery component in a single intentional experience built around accountability, coaching, and community.
As a Franchise Owner and CEO of STRIDE Fitness in Denver, CO, you would lead a high-growth boutique fitness studio while leveraging proven systems, national brand strength, and operational support. This is an opportunity to build a scalable, multi-unit asset in one of the most active and fitness-oriented markets in the country.
