Sky Zone Announces Its First Venture Into The Lone Star State

DALLAS, TX. (March 8, 2011) - Sky Zone Indoor Trampoline Park, creator of the world's first all-trampoline, walled playing court, announces its expansion into the south with its newest location in Dallas, TX. Slated for a July 2011 opening, this will be Sky Zone's first venture into the Lone Star State and launch of the company's 2011 nation-wide expansion plan.

Jim Hanna, the new franchise owner, is a Texan at heart, residing there since 1965 and earning a bachelor's degree from Baylor University and later a Masters of Business Administration from Southwest Texas State University. Hanna has previously worked at the Railroad Commission of Texas and in public education, both of which gave him the tenacity and business acumen for his next foray as a franchisee of Sky Zone. With family values being at the forefront of his priorities, exposing Dallas residents to a unique and wholesome facility like Sky Zone was a natural choice for him, so much so that he is planning on opening a second location in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex sometime next year.

Sky Zone offers adults and kids of all ages the opportunity to run, jump, play and get fit on the patented trampoline court. Suitable for birthday parties, corporate events or just a fun afternoon with the family, Sky Zone brings out the kid in everyone, with the in-your-face twist to the popular children's game 3-D Dodgeball, and the off-the-wall Open Jump bounce session. Classes like SkyRobics combine core exercises, advanced calisthenics and strength building aerobics for a low impact yet highly effective full-body workout.

“As part of our nation-wide expansion, we are pleased to announce the newest Sky Zone franchise location in Dallas, TX,” said Sky Zone Franchise Group LLC president Jeff Platt. “The partnership between Jim and Sky Zone is sure to be a huge success and we are happy to have him on board.”

“I have always been interested in entrepreneurship, and I am so excited to be opening the first Sky Zone location in Dallas,” said Jim Hanna, Sky Zone Dallas franchisee. “Sky Zone is such a dynamic and unique concept and I cannot wait to introduce Dallas residents to the unique and always memorable, in-your-face trampoline haven that is Sky Zone!”
