This is Masiyembo.

And we are changing the landscape of outdoor experience.

Because the Masiyembo Association is committed to helping people find meaning and enhance their wellbeing through nature.

Our Members are creating opportunities for people to improve health outcomes through immersive therapeutic and connective experiences.

Together we are remembering our nature to secure our future.

And now it is needed more than ever...

Authentic

We believe in authentic engagement with our surrounds. We believe in slowing down and opening up to sensory-rich meaningful experiences. We believe in learning with nature, not just about nature. We believe in being…present to life.

Connected

We cultivate immersive experiences that allow us to fully feel and creatively express our relationship with earth. We seek out those ineffable moments that remind us we are truly alive and part of all that is. We understand that connectedness matters.

Experienced

We are a diverse group of professional nature guides, seasoned facilitators and artists doing things differently. We are committed to utilising our cumulative experience to help reawaken people's curiosity for earth and spark for life.

Committed

We are bonded by a commitment to the health and wellbeing of all life on earth. We are motivated by a genuine desire to share our collective passion and wisdom with you, all South Africans, and the world.

An Essential Service

Nature is vital to our health and wellbeing.

Our connectedness with nature is a proven pathway toward building greater resilience, immunity and all-round wellbeing. Connection also supports social cohesion and altruistic behaviours. This is validated by science and verified by personal experience.

The Masiyembo Association is committed to supporting COVID-19 recovery by ensuring that nature again becomes a meaningful part of a healthy lifestyle, for individuals and their communities.

Help us ensure that more South Africans experience the therapeutic benefits of nature contact and connection.

The Masiyembo Association acknowledges that we meet, work, and play in this remarkable country known as South Africa, which has been inhabited by peoples of various cultural backgrounds for thousands of generations. We are grateful to all the caretakers and Elders past and present for their tending of this land, its waters, wildlife and cultures.

We honour all non-human life and seek to live in respectful and harmonious relationship with them.
