5 Wild Ways to Get Active: Fitness... but not as you know it ⚡
January 16, 2019
So it's 2019... if you're anything like us you're thinking this year's the year you want to make changes and get healthier, but not set yourself up to fail... and 2 weeks in... the treadmill's lost its appeal pretty quick!
For us... it's alllll about finding the activity you can't get enough of - something fun, something that you love right from the start but keeps rewarding you as you bend that bit further, finally land that trick, or score that goal - and the rest will follow. We're all about positive changes, not unrealistic aims for a 6 pack in six months, losing 4 stone when you're goddamn gorgeous just as you are... it's about choices to make your life happier, boost your energy and having the best time doing it.
We LOVE all the crazy cool things you guys get up to in your Lycra, and you've put us on to a whole load of ways to keep fit that we'd never thought of. We also want to celebrate our giveaway (that's just launched over on our Instagram here) with Move GB to give one of you lucky lot a free membership to the most flexible kind of "gym", along with a brand new Karma Catsuit, to get you going!
Here are 5 of our fave ways we've discovered to keep fit, hope they give you some inspo to keep active, keep it wild and unique - and find a long term love that fits in with what makes you you.
Make like a music video and sass. it. up. There are so many of these classes popping up and we are HERE FOR IT. Whether you want to channel your inner Ms Spears at At Your Beat (available in London and in NYC), get your Yoncé on at Move Your Frame, be the next Carnival Queen or Vogueing goddess - there's a class for you.
Like a lot of Burnt Soul babes and boys... you may well be used to getting half your weekly steps on a dancefloor somewhere! Keep up that Dry January promise and swap out that G&T without giving up your raving fix... with classes like Clubbercise for cardio based dance classes with a black light twist. Or, for those of you who'd rather jump on a bike instead and get a Techno Hiit - hit up SoulCycle, Psycle or BoomCycle for a class near you.
Hooping madness... you guys know by now that we are massive fans of our Hoop community, not only is it crazy fun and satisfying when you manage to land a trick like magic... it also "gets your abs harder than diamonds" As Marawa says (super hooping World Record holder and general all round badass - Queen of the Stiletto Rollerskate - do not try this at home!!). In the UK, we love Hulaballoo and Playtone, in the US keep an eye out for Miss Mojangles' Hoopography courses... and you can find hula hoop classes all over the UK here.
Love flexing, moving and getting your Namaste on, but want to switch it up a little with a bit more of a party vibe? Well... you're in luck because there are some mega classes out there right now, all with different music twists for whatever tickles your fancy. Love yourself a bit of Earth Wind & Fire? Get yourself down to Disco Yoga - these girls will even treat you to a healthy cocktail afterwards... Kale Mojitos don't count during dry January, don't worry ;)
Fancy yourself as something of an 80s Madge? Time to get Vogueing then with the Voga chicks. A little more aerobic than your standard yoga stretch, but with the fierce dance moves and the tunes you won't be bothered by the burn.
Or what about some Deep House, disco and glitter? Hit up Groove Om Yoga for some serious sparkle stretching sass.
It's International Women's Day and being an all female team we wanted to share our loves, lives and inspirations to celebrate. We adore all you ladies in our Burnt Soul Gang and feel ultimate girl power every day! So read on to meet the babes behind the brand...
From a male acrobat in the 1900s to every festival stage and yoga studio near you. Find out who pioneered the first onesie and how the catsuit has shaped the fashion and costume industry, becoming a fabulous favourite along the way...

Taking the correct measurements
When measuring your bust and hips, make sure its on the widest parts (i.e. not under the bust or on the hip bone). Measurer your waist at the smallest point just above your belly button.
For sizing information tailored to specific fabrics and styles please read the various info tabs within the products. For more information on fit you can also check out our blog, Burnt Soul Sizing - The perfect fit.

it is beautiful and well crafted, and we can’t wait to for lockdown to be over so we can wear it out OUT. But for now, it is helping us survive in style . THANK YOU!!
The child loves it, and is desperate for another one!! And she said, to say “THANK YOU”
I love my new bikini bralet, it fits really well and is really comfy! I have the matching bottoms and the bff leggings which both go really well with it.
Fits like a glove! Fabric quality is truly amazing, i would recommend it 100%!!! Pics don't give it justice because colors are super shiny (Amazon catsuit) and really vibrant!
I bought face masks for all of the members of my family and we love them! Comfortable to wear, brightly coloured and not taking resources away from the front line. Highly recommend.
Received my masks and cannot wait to wear them 🎭😊.. soft comfy material as per Burnt Soul and crazeee psychedelic colours 💃🏽 ive got disposable filters that il b puttin in my mask and they fit fine in the masks too ☺️
I bought the mask for a friend who is a nurse and they are lacking in PPE in the hospital. I had it delivered straight to her house from burnt soul - she absolutely loved it and it cheered her up no end after having a few days of night shifts! She might not be able to wear it at work as she now has a special mask, however she can now go outside to the shops and to and from work in style! I also want to say thank you to you guys for writing her a little note which I had asked for when I ordered it, it made her day!
She also wants to wear it to festivals (fingers crossed we have some sort of party's this year) with her BS catsuit - the perfect rave accessory! I think I'll have to get one too!
These masks are great! I was so looking forward to receiving them to see what kind of print had been sent and I was not disappointed! I've worn them to the supermarket and feel amazing as well as a little safer. Would definately recommend them ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is my second Burnt Soul catsuit, I went for a backless version this time and absolutely love it. It's comfortable and supportive in all the right places. I've been wearing it around the house during lockdown and it really makes an evening feel special!
I am a curvy girl and feel confident and sexy in this flattering item. I can't wait to get to show it off to the rest of the world post lockdown- but for now instagram will have to do!
Beautiful! I feel bloody gawjus in it! Fits perfectly. Flattering panels. LOVE the fact I can wear low back OR low front. I cant wait to wear it out and dance the night away in it.
I didn’t have a reason to splurge on this catsuit, other than it being tucked away to play with one day, but I’m so happy I have it. It’s a beautiful, fun, nostalgic work of art that feels as amazing on as it does hanging in the wardrobe waiting for the crazy fun times. Love it, thanks for bringing the fun back to these strange days of isolation x
These leggings are amazing! I've never found any leggings to suit my shape before, but these hold me in and smooth out all the bumps, I really want to buy them in every colour now!!
Bought these awesome UV Rebel meggings for the boyf for his birthday. Wow! He LOVED them. Has not stopped wearing them all day! Perfect fit and he looks rather ermmm dashing too 😉 thank you Burnt Soul, you’re ace!
First time I’ve bought from Burnt Soul, was looking for a different swimsuit and found it! I love this - the colour blocks are really flattering, and the cut sort of nips in at all the right places. Love the colour and print combination and it’s a really good fabric weight so it feels great on. I’m sunbathing in the garden this year and will be looking good....😍
Love these so much! I bought these AND the high leg as I couldn’t decide which I loved more... oh and the bralette! I bought a size down in the low leg compared the the high if this helps anyone else to choose?
Desperately hoping to get to a festival or beach to show them off this summer!
Burnt Soul killing it in the style stakes, as always 💕 x
I am a size UK 6, I was worried the 6-8 might be a bit big, it fits perfectly.
Was worth paying for a quality item to get a nice comfortable fit that hugs the body.
Beautiful soft rib fabric. Have worn it swimming and with jeans for drinks with the girls. So versatile and easy to wear. Absolutely love the new swim collection and can’t wIt to buy more. ⚡️
This catsuit is so beautiful, I am an aerial hoops artist so this will look so nice when I'm on stage. The fabric feels amazing on the skin really soft. I will defo be buying more of these.
These leggings were my daughter’s favourite birthday present. She absolutely loved the tie dye and sparkles and was the envy of her friends at her party. She said they were super comfy too. Looking forward to us both wearing Burnt Soul in fields this summer!
Bought this for a festival and I love it! The link to the Rolling Stones print is great for music festival, and it’s very flattering. I took the advice to buy this in a size up - I’m usually an 8 and the 8-10 fits well.
Got my daughter a kids one as well :)
I ordered this catsuit to wear to a Spice Girls tribute night! It fits like a glove and made me feel fabulous! This is the first of many Burnt Soul purchases for me! Highly recommend 💖
Just recived this in the post on a wet misrable day. Been stressing about all the wedding plans still to do now am dancing about in this 🤣 this is for the evening party of my wedding and I love it more then my wedding dress. It fits so well and looks amazing! I was worried about the backless style as my other 3 are different but I still feel confident although the backless is less supportive on my bobbies. Once again my life is improved with new lycra. Thank you so much can't wait to wear it at my wedding. If your thinking of getting it just do it you won't regret it. 😍
I am freaking OBSESSED with my catsuit! It is breath taking honestly. It fits perfectly and accentuates your curves in all the right places. I definitely plan to plan to purchase more in the future.
I’m in LOOOOVE with this catsuit - it feels amazing on, so well made, true to sizing guide, stretchy and soft and fits perfectly and I’ve let at least 6 other very differently shaped gorgeous ladies (between a size 10 and 16) try it on and it just looks stunning on EVERYONE. The cuts are made to flatter and accentuate and it does it so well. Zero complaints. It makes me feel fearless and like a damn goddess and I’d wear it every day if I could.
This is my first and certainly won’t be the last!
It’s made so well and I feel so confident and wonderful in it. Cannot wait to get it on for festi season. Every step of the buying process has been made so easy and Robyn and the team have been so accommodating to ensure that I was happy with the perfect fit. I’m a very happy lady 🙌🏻😊💃🏻
I L💙VE my new catsuit. I feel absolutely incredible wearing it. It holds my in in all the right places, is super comfortable and looks totally epic.
Cheeky little 39th birthday present to myself to celebrate the end of my 30s. Do it. Buy it. And WEAR IT ALL THE TIME! Ive had so many complements wearing it. 💙💙💙
Holds you firmly in, chevrons flatter, and it’s simply awesome - I have a lot of catsuits, and burnt soul do them the best - this is my third Burnt Soul purchase - and there will be more!! love this catsuit!!
Wow, I’m speechless. This is yet another fabulous catsuit from Burnt Soul! I was a bit hesitant with this one because of it’s mesh sheerness but boy does it hold you in and forgive all those little bumps and lumps!! It’s worth every penny! I feel amazing in this little number and leaving a trail of glitter everywhere you go is such a cute touch!! I’m gonna be loving it long time!! Xx
Love my catsuit. Not had a chance to wear it yet but it is ready to go soon as the opportunity comes along! I wore it round my apartment for a while and it was like a second skin but firmer. It definitely gave me a much better silhouette. I would recommend for sure.
These leggings are such high quality, beautifully made and tuck you in in all the right places. Perfect sass awaits and the pattern doesn't stretch out over chunkier thigh area! Hurrah! Burnt Soul never ever disappoint ❤️
This was y first burnt soul purchase & first catsuit you guys have not let me down :) the piece fits perfectly, I was a bit concerned that it wouldn’t fit as I’m a 10/12 & went for the S but it was spot on and sooooo comfortable!
I was also a little sceptical about it being white (mainly as drinks are sure to be spilled on the dance floor or getting a dirty butt from sitting random places) but not only was it easy to wipe down while wearing, it washed excellently too.
I’ll definitely be saving up for another stunning piece for the festival season xxxx
