August is National Black Business Month. So, over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be highlighting different Black-owned businesses in the Tampa Bay area.
ABC Action News in-depth reporter Anthony Hill stopped by Ignite Fitness Studio in Carrollwood, a boutique studio that creates community for its clients.
Ebony Grover is passionate about fitness. And she loves spreading that passion to others on their fitness journeys.
“I love it when I see someone coming in constantly, and they’re getting stronger, right? So, you see them when they first come in – maybe they can only do five reps – and now they’re doing 10 or they’re doing 20. So, just watching my clients getting stronger with each and every time they come into class, it brings me joy,” said Grover.
While I was there, she was leading a full-body workout class. Grover and her business partner, Roxana Bennett, opened Ignite Fitness Studio in Carrollwood in 2022. It’s an upscale boutique studio that emphasizes group training.
The ethos of Ignite is to create a community fitness environment where people support each other.
