Alison Carroll

Co-founder of balletbody

What’s your 9-6 like?

A work day for me usually involves replying to emails, zoom/physical meetings, teaching classes, training, as well as trying to squeeze in some time for myself. Running my own business means I don’t really ever switch off though!

What do you enjoy most about your job? 

I get to share my love and passion for Ballet with everyone from all walks of life. Seeing someone fall in love with the art while being able to keep fit, makes everything we do worth it. The collaborative nature of what we do, always learning about new industries and business problems and using culture and creativity to solve them.

"Accept the things that you cannot change and be grateful for all that you have."

What challenges and motivates you to get through the week? (e.g good meditation, reliable work-drobe, coffee, exercise etc.)

Exercise, me-time and a good cup of tea!

If there’s one staple item that you can’t live without, what would that be?

Amita Tailored Shorts - I have them in 3 colours!

How does the Amita Tailored Shorts bring you through your day?

I love pairing them with a button down shirt for a smart casual look that can take me anywhere from a meeting to the weekend.

We have a challenge for you! Create your capsule wardrobe using our Staples collection & tell us why.

I’d pair the Marisa Knit Top in Beige with the Markita Tailored Culottes in White. I love neutrals and clean minimal lines.
