Lisa Raleigh Launches Retail Outlet in Joburg
Fitness specialist and entrepreneur, Lisa Raleigh, has launched her first brick-and-mortar retail store in Johannesburg’s bustling Nicolway Shopping Centre. The new retail outlet opened its doors at the end of July and is an extension of the highly successful wellness e-commerce store, Lisaraleigh.com.
A fitness and health specialist for more than 20 years, Lisa Raleigh has launched successful fitness and wellness brands in addition to her own personal brand as a go-to health and fitness guru in South Africa. Her stable now includes rebounding fitness brand, Bounti; athleisure brand, Body Kind; and lifestyle guidance brand, Lr. Today, Raleigh’s brands all operate as autonomous businesses, but still under the guidance and watchful eye of Raleigh herself.
Now, consumers can experience all three brands in this new one-of-a-kind retail store. If you’re the type of shopper that loves to touch and feel before you buy, then this new retail outlet is sure to get you excited.
Bounti
The rebounding fitness equipment and services supplier offers fitness enthusiasts and coaches the opportunity to get involved in this global fitness trend. The Bounti rebounder collection available in store includes a unique variety of rebounders, including the South African manufactured Bounti Studio Deluxe rebounder along with a collection of locally designed and made accessories, carry bags and workout equipment to expand on the rebounding experience.
Body Kind
Launched in 202, the Body Kind athleisure range, includes South Africa’s first fully adjustable sports bra. The collection offers quality, boutique-style athleisure that transfers easily between workouts and leisure activities. With practicality and performance at their core, the designs simultaneously work to empower local artists and celebrate femininity and South Africa.
Coinciding with the launch of the new retail outlet is new Body Kind athleisure items for the active woman. The additions to the collection include mesh details, t-shirts, reversible jackets, track and jogger pants, as well as tote bags — all proudly made in South Africa. Beautiful shades of taupe, dusty rose, ice white, pale yellow, and dusty green abound in this collection with garments made using luxe fabrics.
Lisa collaborates with local designers and artists to produce unique designs and fabrics with an inherently South African flair. Whether it’s joggers, tank tops, cropped tops, or consistently new designs from her popular reversible leggings range. The range is complemented with accessories such as tote bags, marble-print water bottles, headbands, hair clips and Raleigh’s new zip-scrunchies.
According to Raleigh, every item in the Body Kind collection features fabric that is both durable and comfortable with a zero show-through promise — these leggings all pass the squat test! Depending on the item, sizes range from XS to XXL, with a style appropriate for every body type.
“My Body Kind athleisure range celebrates and empowers women on every step of their wellness journeys,” says Raleigh. “Every woman deserves to feel confident, powerful and look beautiful, every step of the way. These premium quality offerings, with unrivalled value for money, is an authentic extension of my passion and purpose, made with every kind of South African woman at heart.”
The new Lisa Raleigh store offers a luxury shopping experience while bringing consumers the opportunity to try before investing in these exciting brands. Customers will be able to visit the store to try on athleisure, get tips on overall wellness, enquire about rebounding programmes, and discuss the benefits of rebounding with highly qualified staff.
Of course, if you’re unable to get to the new retail outlet in Johannesburg, consumers can still shop and engage with all three brands online here.
