Protea Glen’s Rendani Khomola was born with a special talent
She was born a gymnast but is struggling to flourish due lack of facilities for gymnastics around Soweto.
The 8-year-old Rendani Khomola can bend like rubber, at first, her mother Nhlanhla Khomola said she thought she did not have bones or her bones were somewhat soft, we don’t blame her, what Rendani can do with her body is unbelievable!
“I started realising her gymnastics movements when she was just 4 years old, she would unusually cross legs whenever she would sit down, and I would ask myself questions like, could it be that my daughter is not normal?” Khomola says.
“I sometimes think that she doesn’t have bones, I would get so scared whenever she starts playing around with her legs, folding them or lifting them above her head, I would think that she will break her bones but as time went by, I realised that she is a special kind of a child with a special talent that needs to be groomed,” Khomola added.

Khomola said she has been trying to get a school for gymnastics around Soweto and nearby areas with no luck and is requesting any form of assistance to help her daughter get closer to her dream.
Rendani said that her talent makes her feel so special and unique.
“I always tell my mom that I want to join a gymnastic club as a hobby, I love it, even when I am playing with my friends on a normal day, I find myself bending my hands and legs,” said Rendani.
She was born with it and now needs help to flourish through this special talent as a gymnast. She is looking for anyone who can assist her get her foot at the door of becoming a professional gymnast. Her dream is to participate in the Olympics.
