Greetings Dragons,

Please join us on Saturday, April 4th at 9am for a good workout session in lieu of on-water practice.  Do you miss our Saturday morning coffee time at AGC Starbucks?  Well, stay online after the workout for a virtual social hour with your own coffee, tea, mimosa and granola.

On Sunday, April 5th, at 10am Matt Nadler will lead a Shoulder Workshop for us.  Yea!  "In addition to leading generic yoga classes, my specialty was developing classes/workshops devoted to specific anatomical areas." - Matt.  My shoulders hurt so I'm really looking forward to this.

Props for Shoulder Workshop:
  1. EITHER 1-2 pound dumbbells or soup cans
  2. Some exercises will be held against a wall
  3. All the movements will be standing, so a mat or special flooring will not be needed

Let's take a moment to recognize it's been a very odd few weeks and you may be facing some stress in life and work. We hope these workouts give you an opportunity to move, to achieve something, and most of all, to socialize.

For information about our previous workouts including links, go to our SFDBC Blog - http://www.seattleflyingdragons.org/blog

PREPPING YOUR SPACE
  • Clear any hazards (table corners, pets, unstable shelves)
  • Set up a mat if desired
  • Have water nearby
  • Set up your computer, camera, and microphone ~10 minutes before the meeting so you have time to troubleshoot

SAFETY
  • We are not doctors, physical therapists, trainers, or otherwise certified. (Matt is a certified teacher!) We're just guiding a group. You are responsible for your well-being.
  • Do not injure yourself. If you feel a pinch, a ping, or a twinge in a joint, you should adjust your form. If that doesn't work, then STOP doing the exercise. We really want to stress this point: there is NO purpose in training if you are injuring yourself. Our goal is to tire out our muscles, not to wear out our joints.
  • If you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or low on blood sugar, you NEED to stop. Sit down, breath, get some water, and wait 5 minutes. Stop altogether if you need to. This won't be your only chance to work out.
  • There might be an exercise that you can't do because of a previous injury. You can either skip it, do a variation that you know is safe for you, or replace it entirely with another exercise. This is your call.

VIDEO CONFERENCING ETIQUETTE
  • Keep your microphone on mute if you're not speaking
  • If your background is brighter than the foreground, it could make it difficult to see you.

We can't wait to see you there!

Be well,

Carol Gyger, SFDBC Communications Officer,
and the whole SFDBC Fam Damily
