My name is Natalia and I am the founder of FITBIRD women’s wear. From the age of 5 I trained in Gymnastics in Russia. Later I discovered the Circus. At the age of 12 I started my professional career as an aerial and water acrobat/with the Russian Circus Troupe. In 1996 I moved to Dubai to perform on the stage and contracting to different performance Troupes. My resume includes shows with companies and events such as Microsoft. VW, Juicy Couture, Burj Al Arab, Qatar Gaz, Dubai World Cup. During one of my stage performances, I unfortunately had a bad accident and severely injured my back. To aid my recovery, I started to practise Yoga and Kinesio Therapy. From the years of experience I understand the benefits of having a flexible and healthy body which can have no limits. Leading a very active life, I spent most of the time wearing active wear. Since moving to Perth in 2017, I was always thinking that it would be a great idea to be able to wear something versatile that you could wear during the day or do some outdoor activities, but still look feminine and comfortable. So, that was what motivated me to start FITBIRD during the Covid-19 lockdown. We all had to spend all our time at home, and I wanted to be as comfy as I could be, but still look cute. I enjoy wearing all of my pieces myself and want to share them with other women.
