1Rebel Marketing Director, Michelle Stoodley commented "we're leveraging Xplor Mariana Tek's consumer insights, analytics and APIs to enhance the premium and personalised experience we deliver inside and outside the studio, so every interaction with our brand is the same immersive experience clients get with a 1Rebel class.”
