About us
Welcome to Conscious Connections Pta!
Are you completely exhausted by superficial small talk, endless digital swiping, and awkward networking mixers? So are we.
This group is built for anyone in South Africa looking to step away from the digital noise and build genuine, intentional, and distraction-free human connections. Whether you are single and looking for a meaningful romantic match, or simply wanting to expand your inner circle with a tribe of like-minded friends, this is your space.
What we do:
We host beautifully curated, sober-friendly social experiments, connection labs, and casual weekend activities (like relaxed group hikes, game afternoons, and photo walks). Our signature events feature unique mechanics like digital detoxes (phones checked at the door), structured group games, and double-blind 1-on-1 matching rounds designed to get straight to the "good stuff" in a safe, low-pressure environment.
Who this group is for:
Anyone wanting to practice presence, set clear boundaries, and experience authentic relating.
People who value real-world conversation over curated online profiles.
Please note: This is not exclusively a singles group. We welcome anyone who values deep connection, personal growth, and good community energy.
Let's drop the digital armor, slow down, and build something real. Join the tribe and keep an eye out for our upcoming local events!

This isn’t your typical, awkward "singles mixer." This is a beautifully facilitated, sober-friendly social experiment designed to completely bypass shallow small talk and get straight to the "good stuff."
NOTE: THIS IS NOT EXCLUSIVELY A SINGLES EVENT. Whether you are single and hunting for a romantic partner, completely taken, or just looking to expand your circle with an awesome tribe of like-minded friends—this space is open to anyone seeking deeper, intentional human connection.
How the Afternoon Works- The Digital Detox: Upon arrival, you are invited to switch off your phones. No screens, no digital escapes—just raw, real-time presence.
- The Visual Matching Board: Choose a unique conversational card at check-in. The back will reveal your initial table network of 6 people.
- Premium Platters (Included): Head straight to the food station to serve yourself from a delicious spread of savoury pastry, meat, and gourmet vegetarian platters prepared by The Acreage’s top chefs.
- Table Games & The Riddle Hunt: One hour of light-hearted group play. Teams compete in a tactical Scavenger Hunt across the beautiful venue lawns to win access to our Mystery Prize Board.
- The 1-on-1 Connection Lab: You are invited to switch your phones back on so you can easily swap details as you rotate through a series of intentional, timed 1-on-1 conversations using our custom Conscious Connection Menu prompts.
- The Afterparty & Dinner (16h00 Onwards): The official facilitated Lab wraps up at 16h00, leading straight into the social magic! The main restaurant kitchen stays open until 17h00, meaning you can immediately place your dinner orders and grab extra drinks at 16h00. The bar remains open late into the evening, so the entire tribe can stay on-site as the sun goes down to keep the conversational momentum flowing.
