Rumble Boxing Expands Middle Tennessee Presence At McEwen Northside


Second local franchise location of celebrity-backed studio plans for late summer opening

FRANKLIN, Tenn. (May 9, 2023) – Rumble Boxing, a group fitness studio combining boxing, HIIT, metabolic conditioning and strength training, has announced its second Nashville-area location will open late this summer. Rumble is expanding to McEwen Northside, a fully integrated and walkable community developed by Boyle Investment Company, Northwood Investors and Northwood Ravin in the heart of Cool Springs.

Rumble opened its first Nashville location in the Gulch last summer, and this latest Middle Tennessee studio is one of several locations in the Southeast and Midwest opening under the leadership of co-owners Blake Baskin and Antonio Compton. At Rumble, classes combine boxing and resistance training in an inclusive, uplifting environment that welcomes all skill levels. Since its start in 2017, Rumble has expanded to more than 50 locations nationwide, and has received support from such celebrities as Kendall Jenner, David Beckham, Selena Gomez and more.

“Having grown up in Franklin, I immediately knew McEwen Northside would be a great fit for this unique workout concept,” said Baskin, co-owner of Rumble at McEwen Northside. “Boyle has a great reputation for building community at all their properties around Nashville, and we wanted to contribute to that.”

“Being a minority-owned business, we wanted to open this location in a community that reflects Rumble’s inclusivity,” said Compton, co-owner of Rumble at McEwen Northside. “Everyone who enters one of our studios is welcome, and the same is true for McEwen Northside. We are excited to add to the great foundation here.”

“We’re proud that Antonio and Blake chose to bring Rumble Boxing to McEwen Northside,” said Phil Fawcett, partner of Boyle Investment Company. “We’re confident that this dynamic workout studio will bring yet another high-quality fitness amenity to the community and will be a popular addition for residents and visitors alike.”

Rumble will host a series of free pop-up events at McEwen Northside beginning in May, offering a taste of the Rumble experience in a shortened, 30-minute variation of the signature class. Those interested can learn more here.

McEwen Northside, a Boyle Investment Company, Northwood Investors and Northwood Ravin neighborhood, is a mixed-used district in the center of Cool Springs featuring luxury apartments, restaurants, specialty retail, a hotel and interactive green spaces designed to foster community. Rumble will join several favorites, including Club Pilates, Vintage Vine 100, Fink’s Jewelers, Blue Sushi Sake Grill, Condado Tacos and more.
