Inverness yoga studio founder discusses why she has opened a nurturing space in the heart of the city
Janine Cade, the founder and owner of Soul Seeker Yoga, explains her motivation behind establishing a nurturing space in the heart of Inverness to enjoy yoga.
Q How would you describe your business to a stranger?
A We offer people an opportunity to bring a little peace into their lives, while creating strength and flexibility in body and mind.
Q What inspired you to start the business?
A My own yoga practice had such an impact on me, it motivated me to share it with others so they could experience the positive benefits of yoga.
Q How has your business developed?
A We began our yoga sessions in a lovely little studio on Market Brae Steps with a small community of regular customers. Our new premises on Union Street offer a spacious, stunning studio on the first floor where our yoga sessions are held and on the ground floor we have a gorgeous Boutique and Plant Bar to enjoy delicious plant based treats and healthy refreshments. Having a dedicated studio in the city centre has been so well received and we are continually grateful for the wonderful community we’re building.
Q What are your plans to develop your business in the future?
A To expand on our successes so far. It’s amazing that even after five and a half years people are still surprised to find us and we’re always ready to welcome anyone at any level to come along and give yoga a try. We want to spread the word about the many benefits of yoga throughout the Highlands.
Q What lessons have you learnt from your time in business?
A Running your own business is a marathon not a sprint and you need to pace yourself especially when it’s your own business.
Q What do you love about working in Inverness city centre?
A There’s a great buzz being in the city centre and we absolutely love being part of the community.
Q Can you tell us something interesting about yourself?
A I love astronomy and the science of space. I find it absolutely fascinating and I can’t get enough of it.
