The Athleta Catalog is Full of SLU Fitness Models!

admin — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:43:48 +0000

Remember that great Athleta video we shared on Wednesday? Well, the accompanying catalog is out, and a gang of SLU fitness models are all over it. Check out who was there with a sampling of some of our favorite shots below!

Lauren C can be seen staring us down from yet another cover shot, taken in Belize:

Fitness Model Lauren C for Athleta

Lauren is an all-star track athlete who will be training for the Olympic trials in high-jump this summer. She is also an expert gymnast, runner, and power-weights lifter.

Fitness model Katie D went for it with a sprint on the beach in Kauai, and we’re loving the inspirational words lining up alongside her. It’s a pretty sweet campaign:

Fitness Model Katie D for Athleta

Katie is a runner and an avid soccer player who also can lift some serious weights. This was her first Athleta booking, and we couldn’t be more proud! Way to go, Katie!

Fitness Model Danielle H for Athleta

Danielle H, seen above, is a pro on the volleyball court and — as you might be able to tell from those triceps — rocks the shot put, among a long list of other track and field events.

Then there’s Drisana, our resident yoga queen:

Fitness Model Drisana for Athleta

Drisana is also a personal trainer, track and field athlete, and cyclist–there’s really not much that the lady can’t do.

Fitness Model Corinne G for Athleta

Corinne G , seen above, is our girl for all things water–whether it’s freestyle, snorkeling, jet skiing or surfing, this native Hawaiian has it handled.

Runner’s World Cover Model Danielle poses as a “Dani-quin” for Athleta

A well dressed mannequin is the first thing shoppers see as they pass a storefront window or walk through the front door. Thus, the look and build of a mannequin is crucial to attracting customers. Today, brands are dedicated to displaying their clothing on mannequins with an authentic build. That is why Athleta chose SLU model Danielle as their mannequin muse. Danielle is a track and field athlete training for the Olympics whose build provides the ideal “Dani-quin” for Athleta sportswear.

Swanson Studio 20/2 – Sports Models & Talent

admin — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 19:08:58 +0000

{Content and Images Courtesy of Swanson Studio}

Our friends at Swanson Studio, turned to us as they set out to embark on an exciting adventure to create and capture 20 test shoots, in just 2 short months.

For those of you who do not know, a test shoot is a photo shoot that is planned around an idea. Everyone involved in the shoot trades their time and service for a portfolio piece. Photographers get to experiment with new techniques and concepts while models and stylists get to update their books with fresh imagery. Everyone wins!

As a way to celebrate this achievement and share their hard work, Swanson Studio hosted a 20/2 exhibition the last week in January. The images were TOP SECRET until they released the book and shared the images at the event…We’ve been dying to share them with you! So without further ado, enjoy!

Jump.

Kalindra McFadden

Laura Coyier

Swanson Studio is kitty-corner from SLU’s PDX office and located under the tied arch of the Portland Fremont bridge. Simply step out the back door and you will find a maze of urban graphic shapes permanently suspended overhead. Marcus Swanson chose to seize the opportunity and experiment with the fleeting moments of suspension that could be created by throwing talent into the air like popcorn. Okay………. they did not actually throw them into the air, they drug a trampoline into the back parking lot and had our models sign a liability waiver.

Offense.

Tim Day

Tyler Ashlock’s inspiration was forever circling around the idea of shooting a Football themed test. Unfortunately, they could not find the right Talent for the job. Funny enough…… We had sent Tim Day to be the second boxer in the “boxing” shoot. Tim walked in, and the Swanson team looked up in awe! They HAD to shoot Tim again! Tim is an amazing guy, an ex Cincinnati Bengals player (due to an injury) he’s skilled, and authentic, which makes him a great Sports + Lifestyle Unlimited model.

Dunk.

Xavier Taylor

Valentino Lucas

xavier taylor

Sean Reynold’s idea was to capture the EPIC DUNK shot in a different way. Instead of focusing on the static “perfect moment,” Sean wanted to capture the process as a whole.

Sean captured a sequence of positions in one shot. Adding to this, Sean used ambient light and longer exposures to introduce motion trails. The motion trails served to combine each static image into one energy filled shape.

Spray.

Katie Dober

All of the ‘water’ themed tests took place in the studio… In a pool. One 10ft x 10ft indoor pool made out of 3/4′ plywood and 36 custom apple boxes.

The pool was then filled with 750 gallons of water (8400 pounds of downward pressure and 750 of outward pressure) and trying to keep it warm is no joke.

The studio made great efforts to make sure Katie didn’t catch cold. They began with 50 degree tap water and rotated three, 15 gallon pots of boiling water to slowly recycle the pool water. By the end of the day, and after approximately 30 pots of boiling water they were able to bring the temperature up to a whopping 94 degrees! Impressive.

Splash.

Andrea Dittmer

Roman Tencza

Run.

Alex Jones

Marcus Swanson takes some things very seriously. Especially photography. For this project he wanted to explore running so they called us, in search of serious runners. Alex Jones lives and breathes running. In High School Alex was a 5A Division Champion for 3 consecutive years. He went on to place Top 20 in the State in the 5K. Alex is currently training full time, in hopes of qualifying for the Olympic trials.

Street.

Taylor Kneuven

Matt Staib

As a sports based studio, it was important for Swanson to keep a lot of their tests in the sports vein.

The shoot was to be edgy, and true to life. The location was a beautiful spot in SE Portland that resembled parts of Europe, so the talent needed to be perfect. It is important to know that when it comes to shooting sports, having the right talent is imperative. As a Sports agency we specialize in scouting talent that actually play sports! The images were shot with the Polaroid SX-70.

Boxing.

Tim Day

A huge thank you to everyone at Swanson Studio, for allowing a handful of our talent to be a part of your 20/2 project!

From Dani to Daniquin: Inspiration Takes Form

admin — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 17:36:29 +0000

Article Courtesy of the Athleta Chi Blog

Athleta is about real athletes inspiring active women in a variety of venues. On the Athleta Chi blog, our featured athletes share their expert advice and insight, and our catalogs are filled with pages of performance gear put to the test by women athletes against stunning backdrops around the world.

When we set off on the journey to bring Athleta to “brick-and-mortar” in our flagship San Francisco store, we knew we couldn’t have our real-life athletes there to inspire customers and demonstrate the performance and beauty that’s core to everything we create. So, we started an exhaustive search for athletic mannequins and (no surprise) couldn’t find any that were truly feminine AND athletic — both in the figure and the pose. That’s when we knew we had to venture off the beaten path to create uniquely Athleta mannequins.

Affectionately called “Daniquins,” the mannequins are inspired and modeled after our very own Danielle Halverson. Over the years, Dani has traveled to distant lands with our team of athlete models and creative gurus, becoming an important part of the Athleta community. She’s a strong, beautiful person inside and out, and to give you a sense of who she is as an athlete, here are just a few of her accomplishments…

9 time H.S. Track & Field State Champion
2 time H.S. Basketball State Contender
GNAC Conference Record Holder
NCAA Nationals Track & Field Championships
2 time Runner-up Finish in Heptathlon
1 time National Champion (High Jump)
USA Track & Field Championships
Currently training for Olympic Trials, and for the Olympic Games London 2012.

Dani came to Athleta through Sports + Lifestyle Unlimited, an agency that helped land her on the cover and in the pages of notable publications like Runner’s World, Shape, and Women’s Health. As her agent, Karen Osborn, attests, “Danielle epitomizes the beautiful athlete that the Athleta brand represents, so we were thrilled to facilitate that relationship, along with our other great models they use!” We couldn’t agree more.

A few months ago, Dani traveled with members of Team Athleta to Broomfield, CO, where Fusion Specialties is based. There, overseen by Creative Director Stacie White, Dani was digitally scanned in various action sequences and static poses that included running and Trikonasana (aka triangle pose). A fiberglass prototype, having the basic dimensions but lacking the finer details, was created from these scans as a template for the seven on-site sculptors who would artfully hand-etch Dani from a pile of clay, down to her tiny delineations of sinew and muscle. The Fusion Specialties team worked tirelessly over months to fine-tune this special project for Athleta.

That dedication to their craft is apparent in attention to details that may surprise the layman. Mannequins suffer from what Stacie calls “losing a moment in time,” a quality that often distinguishes great photography from the rest. Similar to one of our photo shoots, computer images were taken of Dani in rapid-fire succession before finding one with the right spark. Human details, too, can be unexpectedly exaggerated — in mannequin form Dani’s legs appeared bigger and more venous. These incongruities were “mannequized” with guidance from Team Athleta. The final product is breathtaking, to say the least.

Just walking through the San Francisco store, it’s apparent these statuesque mannequins are more effigy than mannequin, their precision-carved bodies an homage to Dani’s athletic physique. The untrained eye may overlook the differences between our Daniquins and other, run-of-the-mill mannequins, but we know you’ll appreciate the attention to detail, and hope you enjoyed learning more about the woman who breathed life into our “Daniquins.”

Meet Drisana – Athleta Model & Real Life Yogi

admin — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 19:18:18 +0000

Article courtesy of Nadia Murdock NY Fitness Examiner

Athleta showcased their versatile clothing line to a select group of fitness writers and offered an amazing yoga class with astound yoga instructor, and SLU model Drisana Carey. Carey has been practicing and teaching yoga for several years. I decided to interview her to get insight on the practice of yoga.

How long have you been teaching yoga?

I started guiding my roommates and friends in yoga classes while living in France in 2004, I had been practicing for 4 years and couldn’t find any classes in the area so we used my living room/bedroom to do yoga together, while I talked through the movements and postures. The following Spring of 2005 I returned to the states and took my first teacher training course in Los Angeles and started teaching at the same studio just after finishing the training I’ve been teaching at different studios around Southern California ever since.

In your opinion what are some benefits from practicing yoga?

There are many positive changes people experience during each class and even more benefits unfold after practicing yoga regularly. The more obvious ones are increased flexibility, strength, balance, improved posture, stable moods, and a reduced stress.

Many students have mentioned that they were surprised when they started sleeping better, relaxing more deeply and recognized a better sense of awareness, so less mistakes in their day to day life. The benefits are so numerous it all depends on what you really want to get out of the practice. I’ve found that when I set an intention then letting go of it while I practice surprising changes and gifts appear in my life.

What do you love most about this form of exercise?

I love the sense of connection. Connection with what is going on in my body; what is circling around in my mind and especially the connection with my breath. Connection also with the people and the environment around me, I love practicing outside near the ocean or in the sun on a warm day and even inside the dinkiest of studios have surprised me with a warmth of energy and connection with friends and strangers that cannot be quantified but fills me with a wonderful sense that keeps me continuously inspired to practice.

What are some other ways you stay in shape?

I love just about anything active. I run a lot, play beach volleyball, Pilates, plyometrics, biking, swimming, surfing, climbing, skiing, snowboarding, hiking. I’m usually up for whatever friends, weather and time supports. Regular trips to the gym bore me, so I love to mix it up and use the outdoors as my gym/playground.

Lastly what do you love most about Athleta clothing?

Athleta really gets the female athlete. The clothes are functionally designed extremely well, with performance, comfort and style in mind. Its clear when you feel the clothes that the designers are female athletes themselves. The materials are the kind that once you feel them on; you never want to take them off. I’m always on the go, being active is only part of my day and Athleta’s clothing can take you anywhere from the studio to the shops, to dinner wherever.

Hips Don’t Lie: Athletic Wear for Real Women

I don’t know if I’m an apple or a pear. Bananas are nice, but I doubt I’m one of those either. I just don’t like comparing my body to a fruit basket. But I do know this: I have hips…and thighs. And good lord, yes, a butt.

I consider myself active and have a (fairly) healthy lifestyle, but no amount of squats, crunches or sprints will ever rid me of my curves. Real woman have curves, remember? So then why was it so hard for me to find athletic wear for women that actually fits well and gives me the support I need? I was so sick of avoiding the mirrors at the gym (or worse, skipping a workout entirely) because my too snug tank top was inching up past my belly button with each squat, and my shorts were riding up my thighs with each stride on the treadmill. Do you know how hard it is to sprint when you’ve got one hand between your thighs trying to pull your shorts back to a more G-rated location? Difficult and unattractive. Exercise is supposed to make you feel better about yourself and yet, somehow, it was making me feel worse.

So, a friend of mine recommended I try the new athletic wear from ellasport, their mission is to “provide women with workout apparel that makes them look and feel amazing…because when you are comfortable and feel good about how you look, you have a much better workout!”

So I tried a few pieces and it was love at first crunch. Imagine, a line of athletic wear designed to be supportive and comfortable. Ellasport, where have you been all my life?

Here are some of my favorites:

Gramercy Racerback tank
I love it because: the hip is slightly wider than the waist and top so it stays in place and does not ride up.

Chelsea Racerback tank
It fits me because: the top has a built-in bra that provides support and gives full coverage across the chest with a wider hip just like the gramercy tank.

Power capris
It changed my life because: the fabric provides moderate compression that conceals those less-than-perfect areas and the line across the back makes your butt look half the size!

Workout skirt™
I wear it because: the skirt has compression shorts attached to give support, but with the coverage and flexibility of a skirt. Genius.

SU Model, Adam Dunlap is the Founder and Director of Revolution Parkour, the first academy of it’s kind in the area!

What is Parkour you ask? Parkour is an athletic discipline, in which participants traverse any environment in the most efficient way possible using their physical abilities, and which commonly involves running, jumping, vaulting, rolling and other similar physical movements.

Adam and his team are dedicated to teaching their students proper Parkour technique along with its philosophy and purpose, with training the physical condition comprised of strength, range of motion, aerobic endurance, bone density, joint alignment, and structural efficiency.

Adam

Since the company’s inception, Adam has been the head Parkour instructor at the Revolution Parkour Academy where he has taught and mentored students ranging in age from 5 to 67.

As a professional Parkour athlete, Adam has performed and has been featured on and in numerous local and national news broadcasts, print publications, and internet articles. He has acted, performed, and provided Parkour consultation in commercial productions, and he has modeled for international apparel giants Nike and Adidas.

Adam actually suffered from Crohn’s disease, and attributes healing his body to discovering a diet and exercise plan that incorporates parkour. Adam recently told his story, and how he’s overcome obstacles to CBN TV.

Ty Milford

Kumara Kelley interview
Interview by EXIT real world

Where are you from?
Born and raised in Skagit Valley, WA.

What’s up with your name?
My dad is the ultimate hippy. He studies Hinduism, has a beard, long hair and sometimes wears skirts. He named me after a Hindu warrior god.

How did you start snowboarding?
My older brother snowboarded. Anything he did I wanted to do, so I started snowboarding. I was thirteen.

What’s the real reason you started snowboarding?
I crushed on all my older brothers friends.

P. Aaron Blatt

What was it like growing up riding at Mt. Baker?
Amazing. Pow days at Mt. Baker are the best.

So you lived in Whistler?
When I was seventeen I moved to whistler. At the time Redbull was banned in Canada. I negotiated my way into paying rent with smuggled Redbull. I crossed the Canadian border dozens of times with cases of Redbull I bought at Cosco. I even got approached by a club owner to “run” Redbull for him so he could be the only bar in Whistler selling JagerBombs and Vodka Redbulls.

How did you first get sponsored?
I won a Burton Am Stop last January and afterwards, while partying at the mountain bar, a few people asked if I had any sponsors. I said no and a Burton Rep was sitting at the same table. He gave me his card and told me to send him video/resume/photos. I didn’t have any video/resume/photos but I said okay. I got something to send him and the rest, as they say, is history.

P. Greg Miller

Bet you thought you were pretty cool?
Yeah………

But really your a closet nerd?
Yeah…….. I love scrabble and logic puzzles, I geek out on algebra and I use to be president of Spanish Club and an officer of Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society. Big nerd indeed.

What do you like most about snowboarding?
Trying new things, being silly, powder and good jumps, laughing and cheering on my friends, getting pumped, being outside, shifties, getting creative and singing my heart out while airing out of the pipe.

What do you like least about snowboarding?
Jaded pro snowboarders, industry gossip and haters.

P. Greg Miller

Who are your snowboard heroes?
Devun Walsh for his smooth style, his backside 180’s are sentt from Heaven. He’s my style Guru. Travis Parker for not caring about being cool and always doing fun stuff even if when it’s not “super sick and technical.”

Last serious injury?

Dislocated elbow. Most painful thing. Ever.

In college I was a National Champion gymnast, and now I have the greatest job in the world: a Hollywood stunt person. In fact, you can catch me in the most recent Indiana Jones movie. My days are long and grueling so the most important meal of my day is breakfast. I eat a high-quality protein breakfast of eggs almost every morning to give me enough energy to keep me going. It’s the only meal that gives me the strength to power through my day.
