Dear Ms Dunlap,
I just received my first purchase from Blue Canoe after spending about a month perusing active wear companies from Shakti Activewear to our family favorite Patagonia. I was thrilled with both garmets I ordered from Blue Canoe.
I loved the styling, the fabrics were very comfortable and everything fit. Perfectly.
I was pleased that the order arrived about twice as fast as the confirmation email indicated AND the garments were made in the USA of organic material.
Thank you!

What do I do in my Blue Canoe? I can work with cancer patients and feel comfortable in my Blue Canoe. Blue Canoe clothes are not just for yoga and exercise. I wear your clothes to work all the time. I get the most compliments on them everytime I wear them. And I don’t work in a casual atmosphere. I am a Senior Administrative Assistant in the Yale Brain Tumor Center. Everything is so versatile. I know it’s meant for yoga, and casual wear, but Blue Canoe CAN truly go anywhere! Working in an field that helps preserve lives, it makes sense that my clothes help preserve all of our lives though our environment. Thanks for making such a wonderful product!

Dear Blue Canoe,
Being a mom, a certified massage therapist and a participant of yoga,
I look for clothes that are multi-functional, stylish and of good quality. That is exactly what I find in
Blue Canoe. Thank you!

Dear Blue Canoe,
Thank you for providing such beautiful designs, breathable fabrics and sustainable practices. Your clothing was made for active and inspired beings that care about their bodies and the earth. I have been teaching yoga for more than thirteen years and am always searching for yoga clothing that helps me embody my practice more fully. I feel so much better about my purchases from a company that has soul and puts tender loving care into their clothing. I feel feminine, comfortable and more of myself when I wear your clothing.
I have been a traveling yoga teacher and spent three years recently training a group of Balinese youths to become certified yoga teachers with yoga alliance standards. I have worn my Blue Canoe clothes all over the island of Bali and even with the heat, sun and surf I am still wearing them today like new. Thank you for all that you have created and for offereing exquisite clothing for compassionate and adventurous women around the world!

Hi Laurie ... I have to tell you that I absolutely LIVE in the button pants and zip jacket outfit ... people often comment on how cute it is ... In the morning I roll out of bed and just put on the pants and jacket over a tee and go to the gym ... somehow I never change out of it and I end up working in my office,
running around, scouting locations, and then wearing it to
circus practice in the evening!
The other night ... my boyfriend who was going to take me out for a drink after my trapeze lesson looked me up and down and said ... “ummmm ... are you going to wear that?”
“Why not?” I think he was just objecting to the chalk powder (so the catcher can grip me better) which was sprinkled all over the sleeves and pants.
Thank you for making such a stylish quality product!!

Hi Laurie,
I love to paddle in my Blue Canoe with my pup Kamiah! Blue Canoe is totally comfortable, cute, and looks good wet :-) Only one question when are you going to make paddling tops for pups??? Thanks for the awesome products!!!

Dear Laurie!
I am extremely active because I work as a personal fitness trainer and group exercise instructor with my own clients and with clients at Club One (JCC location) and YMCA in San Francisco. I live in your clothes because they are so comfortable and fashionable! Now I recommend them to all my fitness clients! I wear Blue Canoe everywhere, like in this photo where I am shopping (and staying flexible) on the streets of San Francisco.

Dear Laurie,
I have made a commitment to let every woman in the Argentine Tango Community in San Francisco know how wonderful the Blue Canoe garments feel..they have already commented on the looks!
I wanted to thank you for sharing your story, very inspiring. As an artist myself I know how challenging it can be to realize your dreams..but life has it's way to make things work out fine; your catalog arriving at my house out of nowhere, making it first into my hands instead of the recycling bin wasn't just chance. Not only did it catch my attention with how effortless and free the outfits were, but reading your story made me want to wear them. The clothes are perfect for a dancer and a new mom! I love the feel fo the bc Logo Tee and the Flow Pants, thanks to the shell button for tightening at the ankle they fit me just perfect!
I can do youga with my 5 month old, Leo Nicolas, then go tango dancing all in one outfit!
Thank you and your team at Blue Canoe

Hi Laurie,
I am always so comfy and cozy in my Blue Canoe yoga pants and my favorites, the strappy tank and halter, while teaching my yoga classes. Growing up in the forests of East Texas inspired in me a deep adoration of the natural world, so it makes me very happy to wear organic yoga clothes!
I love Blue Canoe because it goes everywhere with me—teaching yoga and women’s spirituality classes and workshops, working with clients privately, continuing my ongoing studies in Tantric philosophy, creating herbal remedies and tintures, or cheering the Texas Longhorns!

I was invited to a trapeze lesson, my first, and I decided to wear my Blue Canoe tee because it is so comfortable. I wear it a lot when I am active because I love the way it feels against my skin. Plus, I knew I was going to be doing many new things I wouldnt regularly do, so I wasnt going to need restriction from my clothes. The Blue Canoe top was PERFECT, I felt so comfortable and was able to concentrate on the trapeze and not worry about my clothes.
