Fitness Fanatic Overcomplicates the Business Model | Dragons’ Den

by admin



The next pitch comes from yoga instructor Thierry Giunta, he’s looking for investment for his new way of doing yoga’ with a step for better balance and precision – the “BeamBlock”. Thierry wants to follow a business model of selling the blocks to gyms with a licence fee for Beamblock classes, but Sarah has a different strategy up her sleeve.

An international sensation, Dragon’s Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

@tellercamille8080 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

this guy's male assistant skips all the leg days

@DJcyberslash March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

First thing he needs to do is just his body off the package. No one wants to look at a dude on the package.

@random-nz7dy March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Can't quite understand why he would offer so much.

I mean at least try to retain 60% so you're still the majority owner.

@Imbadbambam March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Are French guys just totally womanly like this guy…😂

@Deangirl86 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Nick always sounds like the fanciest person on earth when he talks.

@jessicamoise8454 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Please don't end your life there better thing for you in future .

@michaelmulvania6060 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

just find a milk crate for free. Problem solved.

@JoeyXSmith March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

You can tell this guy had some issues.

@Erickhetfield March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

He didn't make it.

"But, and there is a bit but.. its mine" Sarah Willingam

"We are basically saying we think your business is worth $100k.. which is bugger all really.. So you're not gonna get much out of this at all"

@thesadwolf March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

I'm not sure how well the company is doing. The Beamblock YT channel has 26 subscribers which isn't really hopeful.

@timothyriehm5967 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

From Napoleon to the Beamblock.

Men, please don't wear feet hugging shoes.

@serdaryavuz6996 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

What a great guy put his heart into this.. Hope the product is doing really well

@AdilKhan-lg7qd March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

God bless and I wish you the very best ❤

@bb7370 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Touka Suliman 💚🙏

@marshapelo9830 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

What a dodo idea.

@Sejdr March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

OMG…they actually invested in a few meaningless colored boxes just because he shed some crocodile tears….with all the other buisnesses they have ripped apart with much better prodects!!!

@redfin382 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

I must be blind bc this just looks like a piece of plastic. I mean what is the point of this? Maybe this guy has a great routine but the plastic block is just a hunk of plastic.

@wagstaffe7 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

They dropped him afterwards.

@taloot March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Good choice of dragons

You can’t have better than Peter and with Tuka’s excitement and different marketing strategies
What a wonderful combination

@WeldingQueen March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Good for him. I liked him he seemed genuinely sweet and so so motivated.

@keyquestions March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Personally, I think he made the right choice. He's been through a lot. He deserves some success.

@seancharlie8476 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Sarah should have made a solo offer off all the money for 30%.

@sage6336 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

are you a yogi? like yogi bear or yogi berra?

@combatsack March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Peters valuation was a bit of a stretch

@mizhomesiq March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

I really don't think this is a good biz idea. You can easily replicate this with colored yoga blocks. And since yoga moves are all standard anyone can do it using your own blocks. Unless there is another whole set of modified yoga moves that cannot be done without this apparatus at all, then at least there is a shot at making money.

@MarzipanCat. March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

His company is dissolved and has a net worth of about -£112.000. I feel kind of bad for him because he spent so much and risked so much but honestly, the idea was just silly. It was just another fitness gadget that promised to be something completely different.

@roymunson1503 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Sarah is soooooo fit 😍

@Zucca101 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Who else flashed back to the Square Master of MST3K fame? X3

@screenwatcherfindlay6027 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

This guy cries a lot I'm guessing.

@billrowan1957 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

He's obviously not a great instructor, I mean he'd have some kind of revenue. He simply made something material up to manipulate something that stands alone.
Never pity a man that cries 3 times in 15 mins.

@billrowan1957 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

I hate the editing, none of these facial expressions truly align with what we're seeing

@theecobusinesshub1502 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

After watching the revelation behind this pitch I have to say the one dragon Thierry really needed wasn't in the den on the day ! Had the ice cream entrepreneur been present things may have worked out different , especially had Sarah been involved . Good luck to Thierry on his future path 👍

@janeclarkson8471 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

The music is horrendous! Distracting, irritating and DEAFENING! Turn it right down at least. Actually it's UNECESSARY! Silent moments add to the drama!

@takmaps March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

This is one for Duncan tbh

@MissesCakes March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MAN.

@minashah9933 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Please turn the music up. Can't hear

@kayvictoria7250 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

So this guy really just said you're going to see yoga like you never seen it done before and he did whatever and then but his foot on a block but his arms out but the other foot out and said you're floating went back down team well done what the f*** what idiots like does he not think you're going to see like before Oh I put my foot on the color block I can put my foot on the floor put my hands out my foot up and I'm floating

@ruthtryphosa March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

The company dissolved by 31 December 2019

@marianmurphy4625 March 26, 2024 - 10:51 pm

Great to see Touker and Peter joining. He cannot lose with them, although he might go with another product. I wonder how it's going. I'd like to see more follow ups
