We've mapped out every stage of building your solo Pilates business, and you'll find an extensive video library with instructions on everything, from finding your ideal client, to setting up your ads, to running your programs and gathering testimonials.
But we didn't stop at instructions - we've pre-written your ads, your landing pages, your sales scripts, your program outlines - everything. Just fill in the blanks and go.
Not only will you have clear instructions and templates, I'll coach you live multiple times per week. I'll help you with your pricing, your client avatar, your offer, your ads, your sales calls - everything you need help with, we're there for you live, for as long as you need help.
This is not a quick fix program. This is your opportunity to change your life forever. For the life of the program I’ll keep working with you until you hit $100k. As long as you put in the work, we’ll get you there!
In reality most people who hate sales, actually just hate pushing things on people that are not a good fit. We’re going to leave all that behind and come up with an offer that sells itself.
We'll show you step-by-step how to think like someone who makes $100k, how to define your ideal client, how to create a compelling, Pilates-based offer so good it sells itself, how to build a landing page and run ads, and how to sign up clients to your program. Not only that, we'll show you how to design your program to deliver outstanding results, and how to collect testimonials from your clients.
Anything you need to build - there's a template for it. We've got templates for your client avatar, your offer, your program, your ads, your landing page, your sales conversations, your client induction, collecting testimonials, and much, much more. It's all been done for you just fill in the blanks and go.
This program goes WAY beyond any self-paced course though. I’ll actually help you - personally, and live, to build your business. Every week there are multiple live coaching calls where I will help you with your ads, your copy, your landing pages, your sales calls, your offer… and any other thing you need help with. This is direct mentoring and hands-on help, not some weekly Q&A.

I spent my 20s and 30s as a penniless musician, and I had no idea how to build a business or make money. I decided to change my relationship with money, and since 2007 I've build two 7-figure Pilates businesses. The first was a studio in Melbourne Australia which I built up to $2.4M per year in revenue. I sold my share in the studio in 2016 and started Breathe Education, which now employs 28 people in 5 countries and has graduated 5,000+ certified Pilates instructors in 26 countries.
Now I want to help you change your relationship with money, and finally make the money you deserve, doing what you love - teaching Pilates.
I built two Pilates businesses, from scratch to multi-million dollars per year. Now I want to help you build your own 6-figure Pilates business. I'm sick of Pilates instructors being poor!

It’s for any Pilates instructor – although it also works brilliantly for yoga teachers, personal trainers and other movement professionals.
This program is for you if you don’t know thing #1 about business, but you’re sick of not making the money you deserve as a Pilates professional. If you hate sales, marketing, and dread showing your face on social media – we’ve got you covered!
Inside the program you’ll learn how to attract ideal clients without any kind of high pressure awkward sales or marketing tactics, and without one single dance on Instagram.
This program is open-ended and self-paced.
We’ve had people make their first $5k within 4 weeks, and others chip away for months, an hour a week before they’re ready to launch. It’s up to you how fast you move. We’re here for you either way.
In our experience, most people who think they hate sales and marketing, in fact just hate pushing things on people that are not a good fit.
When you truly believe you can help someone, and they genuinely want your help, selling and marketing is as simple as explaining your offer. Once you understand this you will alleviate all the pressure on both you, and the client. And paradoxically you’ll actually sell more easily and more joyfully when you don’t push things on people that are not a good fit.
When you enroll you’ll get access to the program within 1 business day.
Once you have access, you can start immediately, everything is there for you and you have access to chat with your coaches and fellow solopreneurs.
No problem. If people near you don’t want Pilates or can’t afford it, do an online business. “People near me” is not a good market in that case! We’ll help you find your ideal clients, wherever they are in the world.
Your ideal clients desperately want your help, and are happy to pay for it. We’ll help you find them.
We’re so confident this program will change your life and your income, we guarantee it.
Once you enroll in the program, we will continue to work with you at no extra charge until you achieve $100k a year in income, for the life of the program.
