Get ready to bounce, celebrate and make history! bounceCHELLA is bringing the rebounding community together for what we’re aiming to make the largest rebounding event ever held on the African continent. Proudly powered by bounti, our very first bounceCHELLA Marathon is happening on the rooftop parking area of the Winnie Mandela Precinct, and we’re calling on rebounding studios, instructors, clients, friends and families from across Africa to join us as we come together to break a record and celebrate everything we love about bouncing.
 

Please arrive from 06:00AM for a 06:30AM start, with between 250 and 300 participants expected! Our theme is “all things bright and beautiful”, so think bright colours, neon, flowers and fabulous floral headpieces… Because what better way to welcome the beginning of spring than with a whole lot of colour, energy and community?

This is going to be far more than just one big workout! bounti founder, Lisa Raleigh will kick things off with an opening speech, followed by bounti taking the very first workout slot, before handing the stage over to other participating studios. Each studio will bring some of its best instructors to lead their own routines and workout sequences, giving everyone the chance to experience different styles, personalities and energy from across the rebounding community! We’ll also have plenty happening off the rebounders, including:

• Studio Bounce Zones:Specific demarcated areas will be allocated to different studios, so that you can bounce together with your community and represent your studio.
• Photo Opportunities and Meet-and-Greets: Come ready to capture the memories and meet some of the amazing people helping to grow rebounding across the continent!
• Prizes: We’ll be celebrating the studios and individuals who go the extra mile, with prizes for the biggest studio presence, the person who travelled the farthest, best dressed, the person who brings the most clients, and the winner of our exciting social media competition (details below).
• Goodie bags: Every attendee can look forward to fabulous goodie bags, packed with incredible products from our wellness sponsors!

Speaking of our social media competition, we want to see how you’re getting ready for bounceCHELLA! Before the event, create a post about your bounceCHELLA experience; whether that’s a selfie with your rebounder set-up, a screenshot or picture of your ticket confirmation, a sneak peek of your outfit, or anything else that gets you excited to bounce. Simply use #bounceCHELLAglobal, follow @bounceCHELLAglobal and tag us in your post to be in the running.

And yes, we’re making this a family affair too! A dedicated Kiddies’ Zone will be available, with instructors on hand to entertain children aged 3 to 9 years old, so parents can enjoy the main event knowing their little ones are being kept busy. Children aged 10 and over will need to purchase an adult ticket and can participate in the main event with everyone else.

When it comes to tickets, you have 2 options: a ticket that includes a rebounder provided by the organisers, or a reduced-price ticket for those bringing their own rebounder. And because we want as many of you there as possible, we’re also offering bundles of 10 tickets at special discounted rates; perfect for getting your whole studio, squad or client crew together! Here’s some important info to note:

• If you choose to bring your own, you are responsible for transporting it to and from the event and for ensuring that it is not lost, stolen or damaged, so please clearly mark your rebounderto distinguish it from the many others around you.
• The workout itself will be completely equipment-free, although you’re welcome to bring Weighted Gloves, Ankle Weights, or Weighted Leg Sleeves if you’d like to add an extra challenge! Please remember that all personal belongings and equipment remain your own responsibility.
• There will be plenty of parking available at the shopping centre on the lower levels and underground, even though we’ll be bouncing on the rooftop.
• When you arrive, please check in with our team, receive your allocated wristband and we’ll show you to where you’ll be bouncing for the morning.
• For safety and comfort, barefoot bouncing and bouncing in takkies/trainers will not be permitted. Please bring your own non-slip socks or bounti Soles, along with a water bottle (please avoid glass water bottles that could easily be knocked over and break) and sweat towel. We recommend wearing comfortable, relatively tight-fitting athleisure. As we’ll be outdoors, don’t forget your sunblock or sufficient SPF protection!
• Please note that there will be selected merchandise available for sale on the day, as well as various vendors, so bring along a little extra spending if you’d like to shop with us! However, please note that this is a cashless event.
• Please also ensure that you’re properly fuelled for the event! Eat something before, pack small snacks to keep you going, and bring plenty of water (with some electrolytes, if possible) and sip throughout to stay hydrated.
• As part of your goodie bag, which you’ll receive at the event, you can enjoy an exclusive 10% voucher valid for the day at the Lisa Raleigh Store ONLY. We’ll be open with extended trading hours (until 14:00PM) on the day especially because of this!

Most importantly, bounceCHELLA is for everyone... We’ve created this experience to bring the wider rebounding community together, and we want studios, instructors and clients from across Africa to be part of it. So gather your friends, bring your family, rally your studio and get your clients involved… The more of us bouncing together, the closer we get to making history! We absolutely can’t wait to see you there, fill that rooftop with colour and energy, and hopefully break a record together.
