Join me in a conversation with Daniel Kavanaugh to explore his journey in starting Rogue Sauna. Rogue Sauna Founded by Daniel and two co-founders after discovering shared interest in mobile saunas, leading to a 2-year development journey including research trips to Finland and Europe.
Building high-quality mobile and floating saunas with focus on traditional practices, proper heat stratification, and optimal steam conditions.
He is working on launching first floating sauna in Portland on the Willamette River, inspired by successful implementations in Norway and Seattle. Planning to expand social sauna spaces across Pacific Northwest and mountain ranges, with focus on semi-outdoor experiences.
Daniel emphasizes sauna's role as a communal space that brings people together and acts as a social equalizer.
