APHY ACTIVE

On pushing sustainability efforts in activewear

Even before Aphy Active came to be, co-founders and sisters Rebecca Ten, 25, and Ten Ning Zhuan, 23, were already big believers in the high and healing powers of a good workout. To them, exercise didn’t necessarily have to mean an aggressive five-day gym schedule, but instead, various types of workouts that provided what they needed for the day.

In essence, simply getting the body moving has been therapeutic for their minds, hearts, and bodies, and they wanted to share that enthusiasm for movement with a community. “It’s encouraging when you start to feel stronger. That makes you more positive, which is such a beautiful feeling,” Rebecca says.

So, when they eventually came together to get Aphy Active going, the sisters were focused on what they wanted their brand and offerings to convey — to create active and athleisure wear that inspires like-minded people to not just work out, but to feel good and do good.

Which is also why they were adamant on grounding the brand in sustainability efforts right from the get-go. “It was just something that made sense,” she adds. “As avid travellers, we love every country we’ve explored but while at it, we also witnessed the impact of the lack of consciousness when it came to protecting our earth.”
