Kirsty Du Toit
They say dynamite comes in small packages, but Vanes-Mari du Toit sure proves that theory wrong!
She’s sassy, sporty and all things successful! She’s a netball player at heart, where she plays the positions of GS, GK and GA. She is a member of the South Africa National Netball team and has 38 caps to date.
But it’s Vanes-Mari’s latest career challenge that has us all talking – Dancing with the Stars SA. Joined by professional dancer, Johannes Radebe, Vanes-Mari has survived 9 weeks of intense training, judging and of course, blisters!
It’s no wonder she’s our WOMAN CRUSH WEDNESDAY!
