What Our Majik Forest Members Say

★★★★★

"From day one, Francois, Willem, and Neil were not just professional, dedicated, and passionate about helping us reach our goals — they immediately made us feel part of their family. Their motivational energy leaves us feeling challenged, inspired, and more confident than before. Together we celebrate the small victories. I look forward to every upcoming 20 minutes of sweat, tears, and full-out laughter — we just love you guys."

★★★★★

"Always a challenge; never a dull moment! This is not the place for you if you prefer your limits unbroken or your comfort zone comfy — but if you're looking for some serious progress, you will feel right at home. Excellent trainers help you level up in no time."

Dalene Olivier

★★★★★

"BODY20 Majik Forest patiently helped rehabilitate my injured shoulder. Sometimes I cannot believe I signed up for the torture — but when I look in the mirror at my results over the past 12 months, I feel really proud. Major improvement in my BMI, strength, stamina, and flexibility. Thank you, Majik Forest team."

The Science behind the Technology

What is EMS Training?

Electro Muscular Stimulation (EMS) is a science-backed training method that uses safe, painless electrical impulses to stimulate your muscles directly — the same way your central nervous system does naturally, only more comprehensively.

During a Body20 session, you wear a full-body EMS suit that simultaneously activates up to 90% of your muscle fibres across every major muscle group. A conventional gym workout, by comparison, typically engages only 40–70% of your available muscle fibres and never all groups at the same time.

EMS TRAINING IN BELLVILLE, CAPE TOWN

Welgemoed's Fitness Community

Welgemoed is a laid-back, family-oriented suburb where busy individuals value their time with family as much as their fitness. Our members range from young professionals to active retirees — and everything in between. This community is genuinely active: people here exercise, focus on staying fit, and look for quality solutions that respect their time.

BODY20 Majik Forest is tucked away in the Majik Forest Shopping Centre on the corner of Van Riebeeckshof Road and Koelenhof Street — through Entrance 2, just past Dis-Chem. Free parking is available around the centre. It's a Studio worth finding — and once you do, you'll wonder how you ever trained without it.

Monthly challenges, a community that cheers each other on, and a coaching team who make every 20 minutes count — this is what makes BODY20 Majik Forest different from every other fitness option in the Northern Suburbs.

Frequently Asked Questions

EMS stands for Electro Muscular Stimulation. You wear a full-body suit that delivers safe, low-level electrical impulses, activating up to 98% of your muscle fibres simultaneously — including deep stabiliser muscles conventional training rarely reaches. Every 20-minute session at BODY20 Majik Forest delivers the muscular stimulus of multiple conventional gym sessions, guided one Coach to two members throughout.

Yes. BODY20 uses professional-grade, CE-certified EMS equipment. At BODY20 Majik Forest, every session is conducted by a certified Coach who monitors and adjusts your intensity throughout. EMS is not suitable for people with pacemakers or during pregnancy — your initial consultation at our Studio will screen for all contraindications before you begin.

Most Majik Forest members notice improved energy and muscle tone within 2–4 weeks. Member Elri Dreyer came in for shoulder rehabilitation and after 12 months reports major improvement in BMI, strength, stamina, and flexibility. Results here are real, measurable, and lasting.

Your certified BODY20 Coach will recommend one to two 20-minute sessions per week, based on your individual goals, fitness level, and your InBody body composition results. Francois's background in Exercise and Human Movement Science means your training frequency is always grounded in what the science — and your own InBody data — tells us your body needs.

Francois holds a Bachelor's and Honours degree in Exercise and Human Movement Science, plus Body20 BIT Advanced Training — meaning the science behind your programme is real, not guesswork. He started on this Studio's training floor and worked every role before taking over as owner. When Francois and his team coach you, it comes from genuine expertise, genuine experience, and genuine care.

I'm Francois Snyman, owner and manager of BODY20 Majik Forest. My path to ownership is a little different from most — I started right here in this Studio as a fitness trainer, having previously worked as an instructor at Virgin Active. I was drawn to the world of EMS fitness because it fascinated me as a science-backed method of exercise. I hold a Bachelor's degree and an Honours degree in Exercise and Human Movement Science — and EMS training embodies everything I studied and believe about how the human body responds to intelligent, progressive training.

"Challenges are the path that lead to success."

After joining BODY20 Majik Forest as a trainer, I was promoted to Studio manager — and enjoyed the role so much that I took over as owner. That journey from the training floor to ownership means I understand every aspect of what makes a great session, a great member experience, and a great Studio culture. The personalised, one-to-two coaching model is what drew me to BODY20 specifically — I like taking the time to make sure every client is genuinely achieving their goals, not just going through the motions.

At BODY20 Majik Forest, you can expect friendly faces, exceptional coaching, and personalised training programmes suited just for you. We run monthly challenges that keep members motivated, and we've built an atmosphere where you meet new friends and training partners. Come prepared to be challenged, pushed, and genuinely proud of what your body can do.

Body20 Global has an international presence through our network of Body20 franchises. We welcome you to engage with us and join us on our journey as we introduce the market to a better way to do fitness. The Body20 EMS way.
