Record breaking concert ...<br />

and you’re invited!<br />

Who said you can’t have a great deal of fun watching a live<br />

stream concert at home? No standing in long queues, eight feet<br />

tall people blocking your view, getting pushed from all sides,<br />

using signals to communicate or being so far away you can<br />

barely see the artist on stage. Not for us. Instead, we’ll be getting<br />

a front row seat for a COVID Secret Session live stream concert<br />

by local legendary rock band, Prime Circle. Not only will they<br />

produce a world-class show but they aim to set a record<br />

globally for the most tickets sold for a live stream rock concert!<br />

It’s on <strong>August</strong> 8 at 7pm. We’ll be there ... join us! Bonus: Ten per<br />

cent of the money raised will be in aid of charity. Get your ticket<br />

for R120 from Computicket.com or head over to their Facebook<br />

page @PrimeCircle to keep updated.<br />

• Think you have to be an uber-fit celebrity, athlete<br />

or dancer to even consider a Pilates class? The<br />

truth is, you don’t need any previous exercise<br />

experience. So, we’re opting for an online class<br />

with the instructors from My Pilates. They offer<br />

various levels you can choose from … think a<br />

refreshing mind-body workout which emphasises<br />

last night’s banana bread, then you should join a<br />

between a 45-minute move, power or flow class<br />

targeting four main areas with each workout –<br />

upper and lower body, cardio and core. No need<br />

for any fitness equipment, you can just jump right<br />

in for R50 a session! Details: thrivefitness.co.za<br />
