We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Janine Gibson. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Janine below.

Alright, Janine thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. We’d love to hear about a time you helped a customer really get an amazing result through their work with you.

One of my regular yoga clients suffered from Sciatica and through tailored, intentional yoga we were able to get him back to his normal daily life & work routine.

Bernard, a regular yoga client of mine is 56 years old, served in the U.S military and worked as a Peace Officer for over 8 years. We began our yoga teacher-student journey in August of 2022 when Bernard was experiencing chronic sciatica pain in his lower back and left leg which affected his ability to show up and perform his duties as a Peace Officer. Bernard went through a series of treatments not limited to Acupuncture, Chiropractic visits, Epidural injections and a wide range of hardcore pain medications which did not alleviate his Sciatica pain.

Earth Flow Studio, my online Yoga studio focuses on yoga for all from the comfort of your space. Bernard began taking classes with me in August of 2022 in which I tailored each yoga session focusing on his Sciatic pain. Most of his classes were restorative based where we focused on breath work, gentle yoga, and holding stretch poses for a longer period of time. Within 4 months, January of 2023 to be exact, Bernard returned to work with 75% of his Sciatica pain gone. Bernard still shows up for regular yoga sessions, via online and is back to his happy, healthy life.

Janine, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

My name is Janine and I am the founder of Earth Flow Studio, an online yoga studio which offers vinyasa, restorative & meditative yoga from the comfort of your space. Our purpose at Earth Flow Studio is to share the gift of yoga with any and everyone who wants to transform their lives through movement and breath work. Yoga has changed my life in so many positive ways and I want everyone to experience the bliss that it brings me on a daily basis. Earth Flow Studio also host pop-up outdoor yoga events in Los Angeles to create community and mental support to those who desire both. Our hope is that we will continue to reach and inspire those who practice yoga and or interested in starting a yoga journey.

Any advice for growing your clientele? What’s been most effective for you?

One of the most effective strategies has been to be honest, be myself, have integrity and leave no one out. This has allowed Earth Flow Studio to attract clients from all different age, size, background and yoga level.

Are there any books, videos, essays or other resources that have significantly impacted your management and entrepreneurial thinking and philosophy?

I recently completed an MBA in Marketing from California State University in Los Angeles. This degree has opened my eyes in so many ways to how tedious, strategic and focused one has to be to successfully begin an entrepreneurial journey within any industry.
