Twelve weeks, fully virtual, in a small cohort — where you and Kathy build all five pillars of your studio together, week by week, until it runs without you.
This is the implementation the Boot Camp deliberately stopped short of: the done-for-you systems, the templates, the guided build-out, and the accountability to make it real.
By application · Begins [MASTERMIND START DATE] · Payment options discussed on your call.
You left the Boot Camp with five real scores, your gaps named, and a prioritized, sequenced plan. That was the destination of one morning — on purpose. The Mastermind is the payoff: twelve weeks of building that plan into a studio that actually runs differently.
One morning. The what and the sequence — the highest-leverage direction for your studio.
Twelve weeks. The how, the assets, and the accountability — until the plan is a working studio.

We move straight through the five pillars in sequence — two weeks each. You don't just learn it; you build it, then bring it back to the room.
Learn the pillar, make the key decisions, and receive the done-for-you templates to build with.
Do the actual work on your own studio, with the cohort and the private channel alongside you.
Bring what you built to the hot seat. Pressure-test it, tighten it, and lock it in before the next pillar.
That loop — teach, implement, review — is the engine of the whole program.
Each pillar gets two weeks, in the order that makes the work stick. We close with two weeks of integration.
Each pillar shows the shift you make and the working templates you walk away with — the tangible core of the program.
The shiftFrom reacting and operating the studio → leading it from a clear vision, in the CEO seat, with a 90-day target.
The shiftFrom "it's all in my head and runs on me" → documented systems the studio actually runs on.
The shiftFrom panic-hiring with standards in your head → a team that knows the standard and grows.
The shiftFrom word-of-mouth and hope → a reliable lead → convert → retain system you can turn up or down.
The shiftFrom knowing revenue and trading hours for dollars → knowing profit, pricing with intent, and building leverage.
The shiftFrom five pillars worked separately → one studio that runs as a whole, with a re-run "runs without you" scorecard to measure the shift since week one.

So the cohort always knows the rhythm of the hour-and-a-half.
What did you commit to last week, and what happened? Public, quick, every week. This is where accountability lives.
The training for that week's pillar work — audit and decide, or build and review.
A couple of owners get deep, live help on their actual studio; everyone else learns vicariously. The heart of the peer value.
Each owner names what they'll do before the next session — posted in the channel.
Three things carry the difference between a course you watch alone and a room that builds with you.
An early private session that tailors the twelve weeks to your specific studio and your Boot Camp plan — so a group program feels custom from day one.
An always-on space for between-session questions with Kathy and peer support, so momentum doesn't stall between weekly sessions.
Weekly public commitments and accountability pairs within the cohort. Masterminds live or die on accountability — here it's structural, not left to willpower.

The done-for-you assets the Boot Camp deliberately withheld, delivered pillar by pillar across the twelve weeks. Each is a working template you leave with built — not a worksheet.
SOPs, opening/closing and sub-coverage protocols, org structure — your studio's operating manual.
Hiring scorecard, onboarding + handbook, standards doc, feedback cadence, development path.
Lead-tracking dashboard, conversion scripts, retention sequences, referral system.
Pricing & profit-per-offer model, financial dashboard, offer-design and leverage frameworks.
Lifetime access to every replay, plus your one private 1:1 with Kathy.
A small peer cohort, the private channel, and the accountability structure that holds it together.
The end deliverable: a studio measurably more able to run without you — and a 90-day roadmap for what comes next.
Real studios, real shifts. More stories added as each cohort graduates.

The first Vital A's Mastermind runs small and fully virtual — a tight room of studio owners building together, with direct access to Kathy throughout. Being first means more of her attention, a cohort that helps shape the program, and founding-member standing as this grows.
The room is intentionally capped. Cohort quality matters more than filling seats, which is why every spot is by application.
I founded Mantra Pilates and grew it from a single studio into a multi-location brand over fourteen years. For a long stretch of that, I was the business — if I wasn't teaching, the wheels came off. Working harder never fixed it. Building the five pillars, deliberately and in order, did.
The Mastermind is the whole of that work, handed to you across twelve weeks — not as theory, but as systems we build together, on your studio, with me in the room every week.
I don't take large cohorts, because this only works when I can give each owner real attention. If you're serious about building a studio that doesn't depend on you, this is the room for it.
Apply for the next cohortA small, serious cohort only works when the fit is right. Here's how it goes.
A short application about your studio, where it stands, and what you want to build. A few minutes, honestly answered.
A brief conversation to make sure the Mastermind is right for you, and you're right for the cohort. We'll walk through the investment and payment options here.
If it's a fit, you're in. Onboarding begins, your 1:1 gets scheduled, and you arrive on day one ready to build.
Yes. This cohort is fully virtual — weekly live sessions over video, plus a private channel between them. You can take part from your studio or your kitchen table, anywhere you are.
Plan on the 90-minute live session, plus the implementation work between sessions on your own studio. The owners who get the most out of it protect that build time — it's where the studio actually changes.
$8,000 for the full twelve weeks — the live sessions, the 1:1 with Kathy, the complete implementation stack, the cohort, and the accountability. Payment options are walked through on your fit-check call.
The Mastermind is built for Boot Camp graduates — you arrive warm, with your scores and a prioritized plan, so week one starts on real ground. If you haven't done the Boot Camp, mention it in your application and we'll point you to the right starting place.
Small by design — a tight room of around 8 to 10 studio owners, capped. The peer room only works when the group is small enough that everyone gets real attention and real airtime in the hot seats.
The next cohort begins [MASTERMIND START DATE]. Because the room is capped and by application, spots can close before that date — applying early is the surest way in.
You've named the gaps and built the plan. This is where you build the studio — with the systems, the room, and the accountability to make it hold.
