The Big Picture

Mixed Picture

Y7 Studio was co-founded by Sarah Larson Levey and Mason Levey in 2013 and acquired in February 2025 by FitLab, a VC-backed 11-brand fitness platform that also operates Nike Studios. Levey stayed on as VP, but operational control sits with FitLab management and its investors. Y7 now answers to a leveraged platform funded by M13, Snoop Ventures, and a $65 million credit facility.
