About us
We are a Mexican clothing, accessories and fitness equipment company created since 2018 in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua. ONÁ FIT by KS represents a community of both women and men where we agree to fully live our health, body and individuality to together reach a continuous improvement towards comprehensive health (mental, physical and emotional) ... because alone we get there fast but together we go further.
We are here to remind you that you do not need permission to shine, but rather to remember that you can achieve what you set your mind to with how capable and strong you already are.
Our passion is to see each and every one of you, our clients, shine and progress towards your goal in the most fun, creative and positive way possible.
We know that starting to exercise or make a radical change in your life can be complicated or overwhelming ... especially if it is about learning to give yourself time, space and love.
For this reason, at ONÁ Fit by KS we decided to design accessories that remind you of how strong and powerful you already are, working from the inside out. A flirty garter here, a personalized vest here... all of this is a great motivator and reminder of why you are making this great change in your life... for yourself.
How ONÁ Fit by KS was born
I introduce myself, my name is Karla Sofía.
I have a degree in Nutrition, Diabetes educator, Pilates and Yoga Instructor and founder of ONÁ Fit by KS sister company of Karla Sofía Nutrition, both committed to bringing you all the resources you need to be a better version of yourself every day.
More important than my career, I am a proudly northern Mexican woman (chila chilaca at eight eighty), I am in love with how much life has given me by working daily and constantly in carrying out my day in a manner consistent with my physical health, mental and emotional...
I am a girlfriend (future wife), daughter, friend, nutritionist, Pilates and yoga instructor, content creator, mom of ONÁ and KS Nutrition, patient with hypothyroidism, patient with polycystic ovary syndrome... all those labels that are accessories to my main essence: I am a Woman, I am Human.
Living with hypothyroidism has allowed me to put my priorities into perspective where a number on the scale or a size is not always going to be what allows me to feel full. I have discovered that it is important to allow myself to live fully without conditioning my dreams or happiness to an idealized number...it has allowed me to know myself and embrace my individuality. But initially, like everyone who is diagnosed with something that cannot be eliminated, I felt like the world was closing in on me. Life has very curious and beautiful ways to teach you lessons, I learned that no one deserves to be hurt by something that cannot change... what I have under my control is the way in which I take care of myself from self-acceptance. That's how it was when I started exercising and taking care of my diet, not to deserve to eat a slice of cake or wear a bathing suit, but because I have always deserved to treat myself to self-care and self-love... the rest will be secondary and will probably happen, probably not .
ONÁ Fit by KS was born as a hobby since I was studying my degree, something extra to keep me entertained, because since I can remember I have been a very hyperactive Karla. I started importing tools for my colleagues, scales, tape measures, leggings and booty bands... ONÁ stayed very comfortable for two years until the 2020 SARS COVID19 pandemic started and the borders closed indefinitely.
Back then I had no head to work, think about growing or moving... my worries (like everyone's back then) were if my family would be okay, if we would survive and if there would be enough to eat the next day. To stay as healthy as possible, especially in my case with Hypothyroidism and the symptoms that were more pronounced every day (because I presume I can gain up to 10 kg in a month) I learned to be flexible and started training at home.
It is then that I learned that in moments of crisis the best medicine is: to move. I started training at home accompanied by the training of professionals that I appreciate and now I consider my friends with the few fitness accessories that I had managed to import, however the space in my apartment was reduced and I was going to need a couple more accessories. Then I realized that I was not going to be able to buy more unless it was 3 to 4 times its initial price... and since I had too much time, anxiety, problems and stress, I began to do what I like the most: learn and create. I took courses, researched, built, destroyed and little by little I was shaping products that allowed me to train with the least possible investment in my home to stay sane and healthy.
It is then that ONÁ went from being a distributor to being a creator of fitness accessories. First a set of booty bands, then leggings, then a weighted vest, then kettlebells...the list went on. Almost a year later, prototype after failed and improved prototype, design after design, fall after fall and with the support of the magical hands of an incredible family business, the first kit was ready... which friends, family and acquaintances little by little with all their support they were buying and making known the brand that ONÁ is today.
At first glance, you can see a box with booty bands, a vest or leggings... but be sure that when you take that item of clothing or equipment in your hand, you are holding months of design from yours truly and a wonderful team thinking about how that product can not only be useful to you but also elevate your day, inspire you and take your training to the maximum.
We think each of its seams, each thread of that fabric, each design and each material to compete with brands from other countries in terms of quality, price and innovation.
So, welcome to ONÁ, please enjoy and share ONÁ Fit by KS with your family and friends.
It will be an honor for me to see you being you using any of our products, clothing or accessories. Remember to use our hashtag: #onafitbyks or #onasquad on instagram so that you appear on our website and fill it with life with your essence.
Thank you for making ONÁ Fit by KS what it is today.
With love and many pineapples with raccoons,
