Two co-founders. One institutional body. Edinburgh, since 2006 — born of practice, built for the long line.
Both names go on every artefact, every announcement, every institutional declaration. The body was founded by two. The body is held by two.
Founder · CEO. Practitioner since childhood. Ashrams in India, long Vipassana retreats, 41-day jungle fasts in Thailand. Professional drummer since age 11. Multi-seven-figure operator. Former corporate project leader and senior analyst. Twenty-seven years in the yoga industry. The artist, entrepreneur, yogi, institutional architect — in one person.
Co-founder. The 2006 outreach to Yoga Alliance USA that won institutional blessing for YAUK was Brian’s. The Edinburgh studio (Union Yoga, 2003) was co-run by Brian and Bruce. The institutional discipline of the body carries Brian’s fingerprints across every standards-of-conduct decision.
Two co-founders, one body, twenty years. Royal Colleges write their founders into the architecture. So do we.
Bruce has held breath retention since age seven. Ashrams in India. Repeated long Vipassana. 41-day jungle fasts in Thailand. The institutional standards are written by someone who has tested them in his own body for forty years.
Bruce has built and run multiple seven-figure businesses outside YogaPros. The institutional architecture isn’t a hobbyist’s project — it’s an operator’s. The body is run like a company. The standards are enforced like contracts.
Bruce’s background includes corporate project leadership and senior analyst work. The institutional discipline of YogaPros — published standards, audit trails, removal-for-breach — reflects that operator’s instinct, not a guru’s.
Bruce has been a working professional drummer since age eleven. The institutional body holds craft and commerce in one frame because its founder has lived that integration since childhood. Artist-to-Operator isn’t a tagline. It’s a biography.
Public record: ashrams, Vipassana, fasting, decades of practice. Held publicly because the founder’s lived practice is the institutional substrate the standards rest on.
