Gentle Movement and Momentum into Spring: 3 Ways To Get Active and Reset Yourself This Month

Gentle Movement and Momentum into Spring: 3 Ways To Get Active and Reset Yourself This Month

After months of cold and dark mornings, indoor workouts to shelter from the endless rain and short days that seemed to go on and on, it feels like the turning point is here. March brings a sense of growth, renewal and optimism. And with the new month come some important dates that begin the shift we need to begin easing into the year and our movement habits.

So here’s the Kerlora guide to building movement momentum through the month of March and the all important dates that will help you along the way.

International Women’s Day and The Power Of Collectivity - 8th March 2026

The Power of Community

There is such a deep feeling that comes from a sense of community. At Kerlora, International Women’s Day marks the collective change that we can make as a united force. Being in community has always been one of our biggest values and ways to consciously move while feeling supported, encouraged and most importantly, never alone.

The people in our growing community are juggling various roles in life and when we come together as a group of unstoppable women, we create changes that might have felt like they were beyond us. Whether that is encouraging each other to move, being a shoulder to lean on or finding comfort in shared trials and tribulations. Together always feels better than alone.

In perfect alignment, this year's theme for International Women’s Day is ‘Give to Gain’. Without generosity, collaboration and collective action we end up being a small fish in a big ocean. But with combined power we can make positive changes that ripple throughout the community.

So, if you can do one thing for yourself this month in honour of International Women’s Day we recommend easing out of hibernation, gathering your community together and moving in a way to loosen your body from the dark months. It’s time to open your mind, body and soul to all of the potential for the new year. A group yoga or pilates session with heart opening stretches or a sun salutation would be the perfect beginning.

Our favourite community look from Kerlora are the high-waisted leggings for women and sports bras for larger busts that you will find in the Lazulli Blue Seamless set. Blue is the colour that helps to keep you calm and collected. You’ll notice that many big brands use blue in their branding because it creates a sense of trust and reliability. It is the perfect set for when you come in contact with people in the community. Not only will they feel connected and safe in your presence, but you will too!

And with community in mind we wanted to give a special shout out to Antonia from Nursem, who our founder Kersty met through a community space at the end of last year. The Nursem high quality products protect and restore the skin, perfect for those of you that regularly use your hands during exercise such as weight training or racquet sports. Go on, show them some love!

Mother’s Day And Celebrating Someone Special - 15th March 2026

Celebrating Mother’s Day

From wider communities we move to those closer to home with the celebration of Mother’s Day.

We were lucky enough to speak with Kersty and her mum Margaret this month. At 74 she continues to inspire Kersty by staying active whether through her weekly line dance classes, the care with which she looks after her garden or all of the other ways in which she supports her family. In Kersty’s words, ‘she never sits still!’. Kersty fondly reflected on her memories of her mum riding her bicycle to and from work and the step classes she never missed. Her mum has been a true inspiration for her and her love for staying active which she now instills within her own children too.

Not to mention that Margaret loves Kerlora and thinks it the best athleisure brand for women! If you are looking for that perfect Mother’s Day gift for the maternal figure in your life, she absolutely loves and recommends these Kerlora pieces which make the perfect stylish activewear for everyday wear. Try the Black Performance Leggings and the Classic Sweatshirts for the perfect outfit for beginners or regular movement lovers. Kerlora is the epitome of clothing that meets you exactly where you are in your stage of life.

But at Kerlora we see the nuances when it comes to maternal love. Mother’s Day can be a complex day for many. Filled with joy, tenderness, heaviness and sometimes a bittersweet feeling. Some of the most special relationships can feel like that of a mother. Whether it is a grandmother, an aunt, a godmother or a sister. Conventional constructs don’t exist for everyone. We can be raised in different ways and turn to different people for that motherly love.

So this Mother’s day why not spend time with those close to you while you move your bodies. Whether that's a gentle afternoon walk, an energising spin class or a gentle pilates flow. Use movement as your way to nourish your body and your relationship. It really will make a meaningful Mother’s Day gift.

The Spring Equinox and Passing The Winter Threshold - 20th March

Moving Into Spring

And finally after these two significant dates, we move into the new season as the Spring Equinox lands on the 20th March. Your movement might have been solely indoor focused with the colder and darker weather. But seeing this as our threshold and reset point, now is the time to start adding outdoor activities back into our routines.

Consider park runs, going for a bike ride or getting back to your daily steps with a walk in your local area. See this as your official start to the year as you slowly build sustainable movement and momentum that works for you and your lifestyle.

Our favourite piece as temperatures begin to rise are our Black Wrap Waist Essential Shorts. After months of being covered in more long length styles these will be a breath of fresh air in your wardrobe. Pair with the Black Long Sleeve Performance Top and your favourite outerwear piece for a full look from the best athleisure brand for women!

We know you are just as excited as we are to welcome the new season. And we hope these small milestones through March will have you feeling energised and refreshed for the year ahead.
