IMNA is the Individual Member Naturist Association, affiliated to SANNA, the South Africa Naturist Association.
We strive to create a safe and friendly environment for all naturists to be able to get together at resorts and events in a safe and healthy manner while practicing non-sexual social nudity in private and in public.
The IMNA online platform consists of Social media pages like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. The IMNA website gives members access to upcoming events, newsletters, a member section with galleries as well as information on everything happening provincially, nationally and internationally.
Kiepersolkloof and other naturist friendly resorts offer discounts to all paid up IMNA members, all year round on camping, accommodation and day visits.
IMNA hosts events and arrange regular get-togethers for their members throughout the year.
IMNA is affiliated to SANNA (South African National Naturist Association) and SANNA in turn is affiliated to the INF (International Naturist Federation). Members receive all the benefits from resorts, events and functions associated with SANNA. Your IMNA membership card also give you access to international naturist resorts as your card carries an INF serial number and stamp. There are currently 34 countries worldwide who are members of the INF.
There are many advantages in membership to IMNA.
There are also weekends away at venues that are not necessarily Naturist venues. We as a group then reserve the complete venue for the weekend and then it is naturist friendly for that time.
IMNA is affiliated to SANNA (South African National Naturist Federation) and SANNA in turn is affiliated to the INF (International Naturist Federation). Hence if you travel to another province in South Africa you will receive all the benefits from resorts and functions associated with SANNA.
Also if you travel overseas, your IMNA membership card will give you access to naturist resorts as your card carries an INF serial number and stamp.
