For Shruti, paddling with DieselFish is more than just a fun activity. It’s also a source of feel-good energy.
Let’s say hello to another of our recent recruits. Shruti was looking for fun activities to try out. As luck would have it, DieselFish was offering free dragon boat lessons. She signed up for a free lesson and was hooked on the feel-good energy the team and the sport provided her. Read on to find out how dragon boat paddling with DieselFish can bring joy into your life.
DF: How did you find out about dragon boat?
Shruti: I was looking for some fun activities
in the Bay Area and stumbled across dragon boating. Serendipitously, DieselFish
was offering free sessions to try out—and I roped another friend and signed up
for it!
DF: Why did you join DieselFish?
Shruti: Two main reasons:
1) Great community. Loved the energy of the
people and everyone makes everyone feel so welcome and are so encouraging.
2) Great way to spend weekends—outdoors +
physical fitness + mental calmness + fun + amazing people + unique activity.
Basically, it turned out to be a no brainer
choice to join.
DF: What do you like about dragon boat
paddling?
Shruti: I am trying to strengthen my upper
body without traditional gymming and this is a fun way for it. I am also
figuring out that after a few classes, paddling has also been making me calmer.
DF: What was it like to compete at the CDBA
Sprint Race?
Shruti: It felt great to be participating at
the CDBA Sprint Race. The cheering for teams, the whole spirit, the excitement,
the dragon boats, met Ollie in the tent (😄) [Editor’s note: Ollie is our
teammate’s dog], saw so many jellyfish, got to socialize—can’t wait for many
more of such races! Felt like an amazing picnic, but with medals at the end of
the day!
