Last month, the Chicago Swish House team had the opportunity to run a special basketball 🏀 fitness class with our friends at MoveMENt co-founded & led by our star 🏀 Fitness Coach Ryan Johnson. Our Community Gym Partners at University of Illinois Chicago hosted us on the new & incredibly cool outdoor 🏀 courts. The goal of the class was to bring our Chicago guys together to honor Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month. Coach Ryan led an amazing workout followed by a group discussion on everyone’s 2024 mental health goals and to celebrate our progress throughout the year. Too much of our world centers on the external benefits of consistent exercise & eating right. However Swish House believes that 24/7/365 - we all must do our best to keep our minds healthy as well our bodies. 🏀 IS therapy for so many of us, so that is what we aim to do for anyone who loves the game - to create more opportunities to come together on the best 🏀 courts with a 🏀 in your hands, get fit, get better & play more high quality hoops… And this makes us all a little bit happier 😊 💯! If you are struggling with your mental health and need help - please visit https://lnkd.in/e5P6NdEk and/or just come catch a Swish House 🏀 basketball fitness class. Our Company & our genuine Community is founded on a shared love for the game of 🏀 and all the great things it can do for our bodies & minds.

Thanks MoveMENt Co-Founder & Chicago 🏀 Fitness Coach Ryan Johnson for co-hosting this AMAZING outdoor 🏀 fitness class experience at University of Illinois Chicago with our CEO Jonathon Dues to honor Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month
MoveMENt x Swish House Chicago 📍 University of Illinois Chicago I had the privilege of coaching our first outdoor Swish House class in partnership with MoveMENt this past Saturday to raise awareness for Men’s Mental Health Awareness month. Under the Summertime Chi sun, skyline in the background, this brought me back to that nostalgia of playing outside as a kid! With us being halfway through 2024, our discussion topic was a mid year check in. What’s one win or area of growth so far this year? “I still have goals. Seeing those doubters out there, it’s gonna be funny to see them eat their words.” - Chicago legend Derrick Rose Huge thank you to all the guys who showed up and everyone who played a part in making this happen!
We love working with community-minded organizations who agree that the power of 🏀 can unify & strengthen communities - especially those in need… Last week, Jet Support Services, Inc. (JSSI) Chief Revenue Officer & Board Member at San Miguel School Chicago Francisco Zozaya Minichini hosted 20+ 8th Graders for an unforgettable Swish House 🏀 fitness class at the coolest 🏀 court in the world, 167 Green in Chicago’s Fulton Market! Our Founder Jonathon Dues & Chicago Head Coach Justin Earles co-hosted. Thank you to JSSI Chairman/CEO & Swish House Investor/Advisory Board Member Neil Book for bringing this idea to life!

Thanks to everyone who came out to experience The Future of Hoops at #NYTechWeek. Joshua Somers and IndoorHoops showed there are hidden basketball oases on any given block. Paul Vitelli had everyone sweating (and shooting the lights out) with a condensed but classic Swish House workout. And of course everyone got to play in ANDIEM’s Pivot 1.0 and experience playing without fear. Even had a few ankles saved before our eyes. It was great meeting so many amazing founders, operators and investors taking their own approaches to expand #healthandwellness and democratize different aspects of sports and fitness.
