Meet the Tenrisk Team

Rudolph Pretorius

Rudolph Pretorius is the visionary leader of several businesses, which includes an Insurance Brokerage and Private Arbitration Centre.

Rudolph read law as a student and practiced as an Attorney in South Africa from 2002 until 2011. He made the intentional choice to explore the business environment outside of the legal practice and this is his daily occupation.

His passion is to create and protect wealth for himself and his business relationships. Leadership development is a constant part of his strategic way of thinking and forms part of his daily routine. With this mindset he approaches business - and - financial coaching, and relationships.

Rudolph and his family exchanged city living for a country lifestyle. He runs his businesses virtually from the beautiful Garden Route and he is a happy and willful participant of all the adventures his Wife Arina, dreams up for him and his son, Arne.

It is Rudolph's view that it is impossible to loose, only to win or to learn. His only goal in life is to have peace of mind and find this in everything he approaches.

Arina Hobbs - Pretorius

Arina Hobbs - Pretorius provides her creative skills to grow Tenrisk’s online presence.

Arina is the owner of Megalios Health and Wellness and founder of “Arina se Kosbos”. She is also an Independent LifeWave Consultant.

Arina is a successful businesswoman who exchanged the corporate world for a country lifestyle where she can live close to her core values.

After her "burn-out" in 2017/2018, she realised that a holistic approach towards health and wellness is essential to reach long-lasting results.

Organic gardening played an important part in her healing journey. Now, teaching others the advantages of eating organically and to connect to the earth is part of her holistic paradigm. Arina always says that she does not know everything but approach every moment as an opportunity to learn, in the moment, for the moment.

Arina addresses health issues through her understanding of the connection between the body, mind, and the spirit. She urges her clients to approach health and wellness in the same way.

Healing people and preserving the earth are two of Arina’s values. It is important for her to align herself with likeminded individuals to reach these goals.

Her family is happy and willing guinea pigs for all her adventures since they are grateful to be blessed by her presence after her brave escape from the corporate environment. Arina and her family are now closely involved in each other's daily activities and together they are creating brand awareness for the companies and marketing the services these companies provide.
