Do you love to move? Do you want stylish and functional pants with big zipper pockets that you can wear anytime, anywhere? If yes, Avenqi is made for you! Avenqi is the first, women-focused, movement culture brand founded by a parkour woman of color. Our designs are created in-house and can’t be found anywhere else. They are made for people who love movement and want functional, high-quality clothes that can seamlessly integrate into your daily life so you can wear anytime, anywhere, and look good!
The name Avenqi is created from the words Aventail, and Qi. Aventail is a medieval piece of armor that protects the neck and shoulders, and Qi means energy or life-force in Chinese. These two words combine the founder’s fascination with medieval knights and castles, and her origins in China.
Avenqi aims to provide a solution to the lack of women clothing options and accurate female representation and presence within the alternative movement community. Whether you do parkour, MovNat, martial arts, climbing, or other types of movement, our clothes are made for you!
Avenqi is both created and inspired by powerful women in movement doing what they love and on a continuous journey for self-improvement in their practice.
This is an ALL OR NOTHING CAMPAIGN! This amazing project will only get funded if we meet our goal.
$20,000 goes toward:
- Producing the black joggers with important upgrades to YKK zippers.
- Future inventory for more original designs and products, including tops, bottoms, and even shoes!

Celebrating Movement Culture:
What is “movement culture?” It is a collective of functional training methods emphasizing functional/primal movements, mobility, and longevity. It is more about enjoying the process, self-improvement and exploration, and realizing that all different types of movement is connected, whether it’s throwing, catching, crawling, rolling, swimming, climbing, running, or jumping.
All movement is connected. Some disciplines we practice include: parkour, Ido Portal, MovNat, martial arts/combatives, lifting, climbing, calisthenics, slacklining, skateboarding, and much more!
Made and tested by women athletes with muscles.

Risks and challenges
The main challenges involve the logistics of transporting and importing the finished goods, especially with the Coronavirus in China. This could include shipment or customs delays, quality control problems or third party shipping delays. Some delays could happen but we will strive to ship on time.
Thank you for supporting our vision for this one-of-a-kind movement culture brand!
