A curated collective of independent personal trainers building their own businesses inside one of St. Louis’ premier private athletic training facilities.
Most experienced coaches hit the same wall. You hand over 40–70% of everything you earn. You chase sales quotas that have nothing to do with coaching. You fight for floor space, work around someone else’s schedule, and watch your clients get a worse experience than they’re paying for. And through all of it, you’re building a brand — just not yours.
The Ignite Performance Collective exists for coaches who are done building someone else’s business.
The Collective is a small, curated group of independent coaches who run their own businesses inside Ignite Performance & Health — a private athletic training and wellness facility in Chesterfield, Missouri.
You keep your clients, your pricing, and your brand. Ignite provides the environment: a professional training floor your clients will notice the moment they walk in, and a standard of operation that matches the way you already work.
This is not a gym membership, and it is not a job. It’s part private training floor, part co-working space, part accelerator — a professional home for coaches who operate like business owners, because they are.

Private training floor. Professional-grade equipment. Recovery space, locker rooms, and parking your clients won’t have to fight for. The kind of environment that makes your rates make sense.
The medical integration, the doctor-grade supplements, and the facility are only the beginning. The Collective runs like an accelerator for your coaching business — professional education, real mentorship, and a client experience no commercial floor can match.
Offer physician-quality supplements to your clients through Ignite’s partner program.
Ultrasound body-fat scans for your clients — performed in our clinical office, not on the gym floor.

Ignite also operates a medical wellness practice. Those services are available to clients who independently choose to explore them.
Partner coaches may reserve the facility during off-peak hours for photography, video production, social media content, and educational filming. A professional backdrop for your brand, without the logistics of a commercial space.
