Leonie Ferreira says the device she uses while exercising, is an effective, result-proven fitness concept imported from Europe. “We had tried the concept before and realised that this type of thing is exactly what Hoedspruit needed. Being a global village with loads of overseas’ visitors owning property in the area, we knew bringing the concept to our little town would only make sense and would be a great addition to our local residents.

“We investigated what the “downside” to exercising in Hoedspruit was where the weather is hot most of the year and the majority of residents living outside of town, only coming into town every other day, and the EMS concept just made sense,” she said. “Electrostimulation is a muscular activation system that allows the simultaneous contraction of 350 muscles.
