What happens when two music educators go all-in on a joy-filled, zero-to-three program—held entirely in public parks?

In this 5-for-5 episode, we interview Kate and Rebecca of Monkey Bar Music, a thriving early childhood music business in Los Angeles. They’re proof that creative models, strong values, and a killer curriculum can scale—even without a brick-and-mortar location.

We talk about:

• Why their unique outdoor model works (and how they plan to expand)
• How they’ve learned to delegate without sacrificing quality
• What surprised them most when they surveyed their clients
• A key mindset shift that helped them stop chasing the wrong opportunities

And they share the big decision they just made that’s going to change everything.

Here’s what we cover in the episode:

• Who is Monkey Bar Music?
• Engaging curriculum for babies and toddlers
• Letting go and learning to delegate
• Saying “no” more often… and the result
• Surveying your clients and asking the right questions
• Going “all in” on your business

We’d love to hear from you… what was your big takeaway this episode? What questions do you have?

Ready to stop reinventing the wheel?

Running a profitable, seven-figure music school shouldn’t mean going it alone.

That’s why we created the Founder’s Forum — a 12-month, done-with-you experience for owners who are ready to lead, scale, and build a culture-rich, sustainable school. 

You’ll get the templates and systems that have turned Brooklyn Music Factory into a multi-million dollar school — as well as a place in a community of serious, high-level owners with big goals that are doing the work alongside of you.

Many who join return year after year.

The next cohort begins October 1st.
