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.

Next time I think they need to make the music a bit louder. I can almost hear the people talking!

My addiction for these dragons den clips knows no bounds

[DarthScosha]

It breaks my hears that your going to sell half your business, half your dream for 50 grand. For that reason i'll offer you half the money at 25% with Peter.

I really expected Touker to offer central London yoga studios at one point there.

*£120 for a bit of plastic - having a laugh* Whole point about yoga is that you DONT have any faffing equipment, apart from say a yoga mat

[dazem]

I really do enjoy seeing guys like him catch a break like this after years of struggling. wish him the best!

Is the sound editor at BBC 12 years old or something?

I got really excited: it's going to flash the colours & play a really annoying tune. 'Simon Says' for Yoga! Cue ankle injuries...

Its just a box with colours on it.
Also he showed that doing a pistol squat on the floor was actually way safer for the average person that would be in a gym who is there to learn. Most people are ok with being able to cheat a bit because they are not professionals like the instructors.

I’m really happy that the background music is so subtle and enhances every episode.

Thierry: “I’ve been homeless and therefore i know how it feels to be out on my own”
Jenny: "lets talk"

[JR-Canada]

Modest, humble, yet ambitious guy. Rarity in the den... Happy for him.

Very humble and passionate guy who just want a shot in life.

[ChipZilla]

He missed an opportunity to practice yoga with Sarah 🤣

[leeporter]

The company dissolved in 31/12/2019. I cant see anything on companies house about Peter and Touker becoming co directors so I can only assume the deal did not go through.

[MrHampat]

Thanks Dragons Den for the entertaining lunch break.

[abhishekmishra]

I'm happy for this man and his offers. Wish him all the luck for his journey to success.

This was touching, and I think it was so nice of Peter, Sahara, and Tuka to help this man. My apology for the misspelling of the names. I did get the strong feeling they wanted truly and sincerely help, that's what touched me.
