SWIMMING LESSONS: WOMEN OVERCOME THEIR FEARS
Swimming is freedom TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS @tarryns07

wimming offers a sense of freedom and Soraya Salie from Bonteheuwel is determined to make women in the community aware of that. Salie sets aside four days a week to reach out to the community and give them hope. On Mondays and Wednesdays she gets the women together for a workout session to “lift the spirits” she says. And then every Tuesday and Thursday she hosts an hour-long swimming lesson at the Bonteheuwel swimming pool. Salie is also founder of the Bonteheuwel Walking Ladies which was established in 2007.

We can’t allow these elements to stop us from living our lives the best we can,” says Salie. According to Naidoo, the swimming lessons has allowed her to
mingle and make more friends. “Before joining a few weeks ago, I have been following Soraya on Facebook. When she posted that they’ll be offering swimming lessons it got me interested. “At the age of 82, you’re not as
stable on your knees so this provides me with some light workouts. We do aquarobics as well,” she says. Meiring describes the swimming lessons as “fantastic”. “I love being in the water. And to think, a few
