THE FOUNDER

Hi, my name is Lienke de Bruin and I'm the creator and founder of Activewear Brazil. I always had two sincere passions in my life - being active and fashion. My love for the Brazilian culture started when I discovered the amazing martial arts Capoeira which is a combination of fighting skills, dance, acrobatics, and music. On one of my trips to Brazil to practise Capoeira I discovered the Brazilian activewear. I was stunned by exceptionality of the gear and never wanted to wear anything else again. The design, the fit, the bright colours, but above all the quality of the supplex material, you will fall in love! The great thing about this type of activewear, it can be used for all kinds of activities that includes yoga, running, fitness, dance. Nowadays you see more women wearing their fitness or yoga wear to go out and have coffee and run errands, just because the clothing is so beautiful and most of all, practical!

I have a Bachelors of Economics, a Bachelor of Health Science, I'm a qualified Naturopath & clinical nutritionist plus I have finished my certificates in Personal Training. With a career history in naturopathy, nutrition and personal training, I was destined to stay in the 'health industry' albeit in a different direction. In 2010, after becoming a stay at home mum of my first son (of 2) my creative brain went in over drive. I wanted to share my discovery of the Brazilian activewear with all other fashion conscious women in Australia and around the globe. This is when Activewear Brazil was born. Since then I'm committed to offering the most unique styles and exceptional quality. I hope you love the gear as much as I do!

Thank you so much for visiting my website, and more so thank you for supporting small business!
