Founded in Melbourne
A legacy of quality and craftsmanship
Founded in Melbourne in 1988 as a small storefront, Energetiks has grown into Australia's leading dancewear brand, trusted by dancers around the world. Guided by founders Gail and Lynda, the brand was built on a simple belief: to empower dancers to live well and perform well. From the very beginning, every garment has been created with intention, care and a deep respect for the artistry and athleticism of dance.
Sustainability first
Local Production, Responsible Progress
Sustainability has shaped our direction from day one. We chose to build differently, keeping the majority of our production in Australia while investing in certified, low-impact and recycled materials. Today, over 80% of our garments are crafted using recycled fabrics, reducing environmental impact without compromising the quality and performance dancers rely on. Sustainability guides every decision, from design to delivery.
Community & The Future
Supporting Dancers Beyond the Studio
Our commitment extends beyond the garments we create. Energetiks supports dancers, educators and artists at every stage of their journey, contributing to events, workshops and initiatives that shape the future of dance. Through philanthropy, inclusive sizing and a dedication to diversity, we aim to foster a more equitable and empowered industry.
PLASTIC BOTTLES SAVED
Our meticulous quality control results in a fault rate of less than 0.02% — far below industry standards. This precision minimises waste, with nearly every garment finding its dancer the first time. Pieces that are not quite perfect are given a second life through our ‘Not Quite Right’ initiative, while fabric offcuts are thoughtfully repurposed. Circular thinking guides everything we do.
0.02% Industry-Leading Fault Rate
Fashion should never come at the cost of people. Our manufacturing partners align with our standards for fair wages, safe working conditions and zero tolerance for harassment or discrimination. Our leadership team conducts regular, in-person visits to oversee these standards firsthand, ensuring accountability and transparency throughout our supply chain. We hold ourselves responsible not just for what we create, but how it is made.
Fair Wages. Safe Workplaces.
In 2021, we introduced GRS certified, fully recyclable garment bags and implemented internal reuse practices across our head office, warehouse and retail network to minimise excess production. We are progressing toward fully recyclable satchel packaging for all parcels sent. Our textile mill also operates a five-stage water treatment system, recycling approximately 85% of water used in production back into manufacturing and community programs. Every process is designed to reduce impact and improve efficiency.
Proudly use GRS Certified Packaging
Dance is for everyone. From ChXXXSml to Ad4XLge, expanded skin-tone options and an evolving unisex range, our product development reflects a deep commitment to inclusivity. We actively support causes including body positivity, racial equity, LGBTQIA+ representation and gender equality.
