Headed up by Olympian Elana Van Zyl Meyer, we at the Athletes Academy at Val de Vie endeavour to get South Africans active.
Be it an elite athlete, who is trying to get to the Olympics, or a social person, who has set up their own target of walking 5km, we are there to support you to achieve your active goals. Elana wants the world to get active! Our programmes are filled with fun and are aimed at families and for those who want exercise as part of their lifestyle.
We cater for both the social and the serious runner.
