John Plagens and Walt Henry
3 Sisters Yoga
John Plagens and Walt Henry, friends for more than 25 years, have always come up with their best ideas while running very early in the morning. They regularly discussed work and life challenges on 5 a.m. runs together before heading to their jobs, Mr. Plagens selling bonds and Mr. Henry managing investment portfolios. They often asked what’s next?
“After three decades in finance, we wanted to downshift in retirement to run a small business,” Mr. Henry says.
They considered opening a dry-cleaner, a bar, a pizza parlor, or a carwash, but kept coming back to their shared passion for fitness. Thanks to Mr. Plagens three daughters they decided on what that next chapter would be.
