Triyoga, a yoga studio chain once favoured by celebrities, has collapsed abruptly, leaving roughly 100 teachers unpaid and bailiffs involved in the fallout, according to the Guardian. The chain ceased trading in September without warning to staff or customers.
Among those affected is Kate Comer, a single mother of two who taught at one of the studios. Like many of her colleagues, she was left without pay and with little notice after the closure, highlighting the precarious financial position many self-employed and contract yoga teachers found themselves in when the business folded.
Triyoga built its reputation over the years as a go-to destination for wellness-focused Londoners, including a number of well-known faces from the entertainment world. Its sudden shutdown marks a stark reversal for a brand that had positioned itself as a leader in the capital's boutique fitness and wellness scene.
The closure adds to a string of difficulties facing independent studios and wellness businesses navigating high rents and squeezed consumer spending in recent years. For the teachers left without pay, the priority now is recovering wages owed, with formal insolvency processes, including bailiff involvement, already under way as affected staff and former customers seek answers about what happens next.
