From Challenge to Opportunity: The Story Behind Tendu Rhythms Sports

As moms of rhythmic gymnasts in Qatar, Chills and Zen faced a problem many parents in the sport know all too well: finding the right gear. High-quality leotards, apparatus, and accessories were hard to come by locally, and the long wait times and steep costs of international shipping made the process even harder.

But instead of letting this frustration hold them back, they saw an opportunity to help not just their daughters, but the entire gymnastics community. And so, Tendu Rhythms Sports was born.

Turning Passion Into Action

Tendu Rhythms wasn’t just about filling a gap in the market—it was about creating a brand that resonates with gymnasts at every level. The name "Tendu Rhythms" reflects both the grace of a gymnast’s movement and the flow of rhythm that defines the sport. Every product, from leotards to hoops, is carefully selected to support performance, comfort, and style.

For Chills and Zen, Tendu Rhythms is more than a business; it’s a commitment to empowering young athletes. It’s about inspiring gymnasts to reach their full potential—whether they’re in the gym practicing or performing on the world stage.

A Community, Not Just a Brand

Even before launching Tendu Rhythms, the founder-moms, Chills and Zen, were deeply passionate about supporting their daughters' rhythmic gymnastics club. They constantly found creative ways to contribute ideas and help the team grow. It was through this hands-on involvement that they realized the journey was about more than just selling products—it was about giving back and empowering young athletes who put in so much hard work everyday to become better gymnasts. With this in mind, Chills and Zen are excited to continue supporting local gymnasts, coaches, and clubs, and to help build a strong, supportive community where everyone can grow and thrive together.
