The Beginning
Yoga Junkies Says Hello to The World
Yoga Junkies was founded in 2018 by Hannah and Tyler Wisniewski in their 50 square meter apartment in Vienna, Austria. Inspired by their shared love of yoga and receiving surprises in the mail, their mission was to create the ultimate yoga lifestyle box. Tyler has always been fascinated by the concept of subscription boxes, and together with Hannah's passion for yoga, they set out to create something truly unique.

2 Minutes 2 Million
Just a year and a half after launching, Hannah and Tyler were selected to present Yoga Junkies on the Austrian start-up show "2 Minutes 2 Million". There they presented their idea to a jury of Austria's top investors. At the end of the show, all five investors were excited about the opportunity to invest in their company, including an additional start-up deal with BIPA.

Not the end, but the end of the beginning

Through hard work and unconditional dedication, Hannah and Tyler had built Yoga Junkies into a thriving community of over 800 members from 11 countries in the European Union. In 2022, they made the decision to evolve Yoga Junkies from a subscription box to a full-fledged yoga brand, with a focus on creating high-quality yoga lifestyle products and events for their community.
