Tone House

What Tone House does

Tone House is a New York City-based boutique fitness studio founded in 2014 by Alonzo Wilson, operating a single facility at 32 E 31st Street. The studio delivers athletic-based strength and conditioning training designed around sport-specific, team-competitive group formats rather than conventional gym programming, with coaches drawn from Division I/II and professional athletic backgrounds. Session formats include signature programs such as TURF WARS, LIFT OFF (in partnership with Strong New York), and HYROX-prep classes, with standardized assessments performed via InBody body composition analysis.

The studio's underlying technology stack is intentionally lean: Mindbody handles class scheduling, payment processing, and membership management, while InBody supports performance and body-composition assessments. Tone House has built differentiation through proprietary programming, a flagship go-to-market partnership with adidas, and designation as an official HYROX training partner, anchoring the brand in the competitive fitness and race-preparation vertical rather than the broader boutique-studio segment.

Tone House generates revenue through drop-in class purchases (roughly $35–$50 per session), recurring monthly memberships (~$275–$500 per month), corporate wellness contracts, and ancillary revenue streams including the Athlete Perks Program and apparel collaborations. The customer base spans general fitness consumers, competitive amateur athletes preparing for HYROX and similar events, and corporate team clients, with 100% of revenue tied to a single New York City location.
