Pretoria : locations saisonnières

First up, we'll get to know one another, then I’ll tell and show you what it’s like to be in lockdown as an Olympian. I’ll share my journey and story with you, then we'll do a little exercise, mirroring what I do to get ready before race day. At the end, we'll have a Q&A where you may ask as many questions as you like.

We'll meet at the Nature Reserve in Modderfontein. We'll travel down a long narrow road where we will stop to take a few pictures. We'll then follow the road which leads us to a rustic stone bridge that has a little river flowing under which is surrounded by lots of exotic flowers. We'll hop out and take a few more pictures here while we enjoy the tranquil sound of the river. We'll then drive into the reserve and down a stoney road which opens up into this beautiful tranquil lake that overlooks the reserve. This will be our last stop where we will completely embrace what Mother Nature has given us. Other things to note It is very normal to feel nervous for a photoshoot. The important thing to remember is to be yourself. Make sure you wear something comfortable and something you feel comfortable wearing.

This Kaftan making workshop takes place in my office studio. Here we’ll get to know each other over local drinks, snacks and tunes. We’ll also get acquainted with a proudly African fabric called Ankara or we use the chiffon fabric to create beaded embroidery which I'll show you how to manipulate into a one piece free style outfit. Whatever you make you get to take! Great as a gift or a wearable souvenir.

We'll in The Maboneng Precinct. We'll walk up to the top of the street where we will view a little bit of the Maboneng history. There are various African restaurants, street art and the famous Maboneng sign that we'll walk past.

We'll conclude at a local rooftop bar where you can enjoy the views of our beautiful City of Johannesburg. Here you can decide whether to enjoy a refreshing local beer or cocktail and sit back and enjoy the view. Other things to note It is very normal to feel nervous for a photoshoot.
