I've recently become familiar with the Lorna Jane brand of activewear and hopefully will get my hands on some their cute fitness gear soon like this adorable polka dot sports bra and this inspirational running tank. 

This Sunday the brand is hosting Active Nation Day which is in align with the principles the brand stands for- "Move. Nourish.Believe". I was excited to be given the opportunity to spread the word about Active Nation Day because I wholeheartedly believe in the message!  

Active Nation Day is this Sunday, September 28, and all over the world Lorna Jane will be hosting events to bring a whole group of women together, all committed to living their best life.


Lorna Jane created Active Nation Day two years ago as a movement to inspire women to live an authentic and active life  It's about telling ladies to go, BE THAT GIRL, who works hard, leads an active lifestyle, takes on challenges,lets go of excuses, and accomplishes their dreams.  Pretty much what all of us are trying to do, right?

. 

There is even a specially choreographed fitness dance called the LJ Move you can perform! 

Watching me dancing and doing the LJ Move or trying to explain the steps in words would be awkward and confusing so just watch the video above for a demonstration! It reminds me of a more coordinated version of something I would do when I'm having a dance party in my room and my favorite song comes on (or maybe that's just me??). 

If you're like me, and there isn't a big LJ event in your area, you can still virtually participate in the big day through these options: 

1. Sign up online to join the movement here!

2. Download the Lorna Jane app on your iPhone or Android device.  The app includes fitness logging, healthy recipes, and tons of motivating & inspiring quotes. 

3. Learn the LJ move by watching this video then check out Lorna Jane Active's Instagram feed to see women all over the world performing it ! 

Use the hashtags #LJMove and #ActiveNationDay when sharing your video on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook for a chance to win a $1000 gift card to Lorna Jane Active!

4. Attend Active Nation Day and use the LJ app to get exclusive in-store promotions and stay fit throughout the day! If you track your activity on the app on September 28th you'll receive a fun Active Nation Day badge. 

I plan to do some reflecting on Active Nation Day while I move my body on a run, nourish my body with good fuel along with some dark chocolate, and believe in myself.
