However, the blog did not do well. One day, she got into researching on yoga mats and then she discovered that the materials used in making the mat, PVC, was harmful to the environment, thus the need to come up with something more eco-friendly since yogis are also eco-friendly.
Pia and Kane decided on having yoga mats manufactured from natural fibers. The duo spent all their savings on the venture. With only between 300 to 400 Instagram followers at the time, she snapped pictures of the mat and shared them on the platform. They started making sales almost immediately and her Instagram account also grew rapidly. It was at this point that Pia quit her job as a lawyer and Kane quit his, as a creative director.
Today, apart from the Instagram account that has amassed more than 2 million followers, the pair also have a YouTube channel, Kane and Pia which they started in 2014. The channel has grown close to 400,000 subscribers.
