What does “AKIMBA” mean?
AKIMBA comes from an old English word 'Akimbo' which means to stand up straight, hands on hips, elbows open.
This is Wonder Woman's position, one of strength.
Standing like this we can feel courageous, facing whatever comes. Our possibilities are expanded.
Feel strong and confident everyday.
The founder
Following a career in energy, from construction sites to process management, Serena Benedetti Roy envisioned Akimba. She was inspired to develop a company with a mission that would enable active women to increase self-confidence while limiting the impact on the planet.
“I aspire for every woman to feel beautiful, strong, and live their best life. I wanted to create a product that offers both comfort and confidence — that supports women from the inside out, so they can focus on what really matters.”
