#283: Caroline and Lizzy are those sisters who finish each others sentences. The type of sisters who would rather be with each other than anyone else on the planet. Both raised in the competitive dance world, movement and physical fitness quickly became a part of their DNA.

After college, Caroline went on to pursue investment sales in New York City. A top sales performer each year at the firm, but left feeling creatively stifled. And Lizzy went on to pursue dance professionally after receiving her BFA in Commercial Dance from Pace University.

When the Pandemic hit NYC in March 2020, Caroline and Lizzy found themselves dreaming of a career where they could do what they loved while helping others in the process. And what they loved was working out in activewear that excited them.

But the activewear they purchased kept missing the mark. The clothes were either "all trend" and "no function", or "all function" and "no trend". So in stead of waiting for their dream activewear brand to appear, they created it themselves.
