In September 2006, Nel and Lara shunned offers of cash on BBC 2's Dragons Den. The duo went in asking for £250,000 for a 15% equity stake of their business. After hours of interrogation, Nel and Lara received 3 offers from the multi-millionaire panel. Richard Farleigh, Theo Paphitis and Deborah Meaden were all after a slice of YogaBugs, the problem was they were asking for a 30% stake in the business. Nel and Lara, staying true to their word of only giving up a 15% stake declined the Dragons offers and walked away. Although it is extremely attractive for a small business to accept investment, the girls remained determined and committed and made the brave step to look elsewhere.

BBC Bitten by the YogaBug!

YogaBugs hit the BBC 

The BBC have just launched what is predicted to be one of the most successful children’s programmes in their history. That programme is called Waybuloo, and in it, the characters (piplings) practice yoga (or yogo as they call it).

We are pleased to announce that Fenella Lindsell, founder and director of YogaBugs has been appointed Yoga Consultant to the Waybuloo team at the BBC.
