True Strength *Sponsored*

by Dale Ho

Strength is not measured by how much weight one can physically bear.
It comes in all shapes, sizes and colours.
Strength is jumping over life's hurdles and getting up each time you fall.
It is human will.
Strength is being courageous enough to be yourself and stand proud.
It is resilience in the face of adversity.

Strength is my daughter...

It's makes sense that she has a passion for horses. 

Horses are said to be a symbol of strength, power and beauty. The perfect pairing.

Between riding, volunteering her time at the stables and playing several rounds of b-ball with her brothers her clothing choice is Ivivva Athletica, a brand able to withstand it all.

Rhythmic tights shown above

Here at home one of our favourite pieces are the Rhythmic Tights, made with Luxtreme® fabric, its sleek design has the ability to feel like a second skin, it moves with you and not against.

"It's so comfortable even when riding." ~Victoria, 12

The Luxtreme® fabric has the ability to wick away sweat keeping you dry, quite the feature for any young sports enthusiast. One other very practical feature we delighted in is the hidden waistband pocket, ideal for tucking away small items whilst you play hard! 

"Ivivva Athletica was created in 2009 by Lululemon in response to a calling from active girls for high performance athletic apparel. We use the same amazing technical fabrics as Lululemon, and rely on feedback from local athletes to ensure that our product is able to function beautifully at the rink, on the field, in the studio, and everywhere in between." ~Jessica, Educator at Ivivva Oakville

A vast selection to choose from at Ivivva Oakville

Ivivva goes well beyond their clothing line and into the community, a company I am pleased to align myself with that share some of the same goals and philosophies I do...

"As a company, we are big on setting and crushing goals. Through our Dreams and Goals program, we coach girls through the goal setting process so they can go out into their communities and work hard towards their dreams." 

There's always something for everyone going on at Ivivva Oakville for all skill sets and interests.

"...Like all Ivivva stores, we have an amazing relationship with the girls in our community and love hearing what they're up to and celebrating their wins. One of the big ways we do this is through weekly complimentary classes (varying from ballet to boxing to bootcamp), where we invite girls of all abilities to come sweat in an encouraging, fun environment." 

It's important to learn that every attempt might not reveal success, failure is part of the journey and strength is only part of the equation, it takes a community to support our children.

"The athletes in our community are at the core of what we do, and the product and community events we offer are always inspired by the amazing girls we've met."

And now on to some B-Ball!
