Sharing experiences, swapping tips, learning from one another and sometimes just having a really good laugh can leave you heading home with a little more knowledge, a little more confidence and a much fuller cup.

So here’s to finding your people — and saying yes to the ones who leave you feeling more positive about life. 🙌

🏃🏽 Fitness looks different these days. 🏃🏽
"There was a time when every training session was about competing and performing as a professional athlete. Today, it's about something even more important—being there for my kids.

Some days it's a long solo training session. Other days it's a family run, pushing a pram around the neighbourhood, or simply staying active together.

Because the goal isn't just to stay fit—it's to build a healthy lifestyle my children can grow up seeing and sharing." - Daniel Du Plessis

No matter what stage of life you're in, movement always has a purpose.

We stood on the start line as amputees — different paces, different stories, one shared belief:
Movement belongs to all of us.
We weren’t just doing a race.
We participated for every amputee who’s ever wondered, “Do I belong here?”

Limb loss does not mean loss of ambition.
It means we learn to move differently.
To win differently.

Every step was about resilience.
About protecting our mobility.
About turning pain into power.

Crossing that finish line wasn’t about the time on a watch —
it was about community, visibility, and proving that we move forward together.

Our stories don’t end with loss.
They begin again with purpose.

What’s Your Epic?

The #WhatsYourEpic campaign isn’t only about podiums or races.
It’s about progress. On your terms. In your world.

Not every "Epic" has a finish line.
Some are just showing up with confidence.
Or saying yes to something you used to avoid.

Your Epic might be walking into a room without hesitation.
Taking that step — physically or emotionally — that once felt impossible.
Whatever it looks like… it counts.

💬 Tell us: What’s YOUR Epic right now?

The @ossurza Mobility Clinic comes to Durban on Saturday, 7 June 2025! 🦿🌟

This is not a running clinic, but a unique opportunity for amputees to learn how to walk, balance, and move more confidently using the prosthetic device you already have.

Whether you’re new to prosthetics or looking to improve your mobility, this clinic is for you. Spaces are limited and registration must be done through your certified Prosthetist (CPO).

To the mothers and motherly figures in our amputee community.
The women behind the scenes — holding homes together, supporting loved ones, driving change in workplaces and communities.
To the glue that keeps the wheels turning, even when life throws its toughest challenges.
To the mothers living with limb loss — strength doesn’t always roar; sometimes, it’s found in gentle perseverance and a smile that says, “I’ve got this.”

💐Happy Mother’s Day💐
