do not transact with this "supplier"
We found an inverter on their site and made payment and after making the payment on the invoice provided, communication stopped and we never heard from him again. No response to emails and our money gone. This is not a legitimate business operation, do not transact with this "supplier".

Virgin Active South Africa

Failing to Embrace Diversity
I attended a "Splash" workout last evening at Virgin Active Little Falls. The instructor, and the majority were white elderly women. Myself and another lady were the only two black women. As the session started, the instructor complained about the Zimbabwean First Lady's attack on the a South African model, and how she was going to get away with it. She went on to say how much of a fuss would have been made had a white woman attacked a black model. There was a sudden air of anger and I cringed. Then followed a stillness in the air for a moment, and I wondered if being a young black woman, I was meant to respond. I didn't, and neither did the other black woman. We could have brought up the 12 year old boy who was shot dead by a white man who claimed he mistook him for a monkey, and the coffin assault incident. But gym is for working out and achieving fitness goals. Isn't it? The instructor then led the conversation to corruption, Zuma and the Guptas. Before long, there was some heart- felt sentiments shared by the white ladies about their good old days- mostly about films they used to watch in the 80's and 90's. My fellow black lady and I were quiet through out the session, feeling segregated and left out. I felt as though I had walked into an old white social club without reading the prohibition sign " NO BLACKS ALLOWED". Halfway through the session, more than half the class formed their own clique and continued to chat, while a few of us continued with the exercises. When asked why she allowed the clique to continue chatting, the instructor responded "I wont stop anyone from chatting. They paid their membership fees and they deserve their privilege" That added salt to injury. Is this the same privilege she allowed them while she fueled conversations about race and politics? How about the privilege that I PAID FOR? Does the color of my skin bar me from the good service and experience that I paid for at Virgin Active Little Falls???? Does the instructor even understand what her role is? Does she know the purpose of those classes? In this day and age where as a country we are thriving for diversity- how can a person in that position be so irresponsible??? I am peeved. Though I need the Splash classes due to my injury, I will not be attending the Splash sessions again. And since she is the ONLY instructor for evening classes - I have no choice but to consider cancelling my membership with Virgin Active Little Falls!!!
