Learn from SA’s greatest icons

What do Joey Rasdien, Lucas Radebe, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, and Tshepo the Master Jean Maker all have in common? They’re exceptional South Africans doing exceptional things! And they’re all part of a new and exciting online Edumentary platform that’s set to shake up and shape up the way we learn!

Cue: Playbox, a proudly South African platform where anyone can learn from some of the nation’s most iconic presenters, sports stars, singers, lawyers, fashion designers, chefs and businesspeople (to name but a few!), through a series of easy-to-watch Edumentary episodes of around 10-minutes each.

The collection of coaches you can learn from currently includes Lucas Radebe, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Joey Rasdien, The Lazy Makoti, Tshepo the Master Jean Maker, and Ryan Sandes. In the coming months, Maps Maponyane, Santie Botha, Albie Sachs and Lwando Xaso – among others – will be added. As upcoming attractions go, that’s not to be missed!

“The idea for Playbox originated as a phone call between friends, as we tried to dream up a way to keep our children entertained during the hard COVID-19 lockdown. The more we spoke, the more the idea developed, until it became this insurmountable desire to change the sentiment of South Africa through meaningful, teachable, story-form, online lessons. Featuring some of the most prolific South African greats, who’ve partnered with us to bring the vision to life, we hope the platform will elevate education (of kids, adults, leaders, and learners) beyond the norm while serving as a tool for change that’s like no other,” says Playbox founder, Mark Levy.

Playbox is built for a South Africa where we all can because they did. It’s built to change lives and honour authentic South African stories by turning them into meaningful, teachable moments. Through Playbox, you can learn skills, hear stories (and secrets), and gain insights into the never-been-told tales of the detours, the disasters, the tears and the triumphs of the humans, and legacies, we admire.

Every episode on Playbox is unique, serving as a reminder that as a nation, as a people, we are unmatched in our resilience, our determination and our humility; and we’re wired for greatness, glory and grace – because we have the skills, and the stories, to prove it.
