The 29 year-old Johannesburg-based yoga instructor and small business owner, was born in Zimbabwe but moved to South Africa at the age of 12.

The first thing that Anesu packed to take to Survivor was her mala beads. “I’m an avid meditator and set myself a goal of being present and meditating every day while being in the game,” she says. “My meditation beads are my anchor”. She has gone all-out to physically prepare for the game including practicing Kundalini Yoga to improve her mental fortitude and endurance, doing puzzles and mind games, embarking on intermittent fasting and she added swimming, balancing exercises and endurance training to her regular exercise routine.

“I’m a born leader, I am super athletic, I am very competitive, and I don’t want people to know that about me at all. When people ask me, ‘Why Survivor?’, my answer is always, ‘Why not?’ Growth comes from pushing yourself, and from challenging yourself to do your best, and I don’t think there’s any greater challenge than Survivor. The most important aspect of Survivor is the mental game, maintaining a strong and present mind is huge in this game, and I think that if you have a good mental game, that feeds into all of the others. I am doctor vegan hippie, and I am ready to be underestimated. The only thing that I am going to kill is this game,” says Anesu.

The show will air premiere on M-Net (DStv 101[SA]/102[ROA]) on 3 June with a special hour-and-a-half episode at 19:30, followed by 1-hour episodes weekly, and conclude with a 2-hour season finale on 16 September after 16 episodes.
