Leaders Spotlight : Dee
In our 10th year of sweating and connecting we are sharing stories from our dedicated and passionate volunteers.
Introducing Dee from FitFam Hong Kong, Dee is energetic and loves bringing people together
Tell us about yourself
I’m Dee from Indonesia. I came to Hong Kong out of curiosity to step out of my comfort zone and fell in love with the city, admiring its beauty. I was lucky enough to get a job and stay. I’m an extrovert and love to stay active!
Your first FitFam workout
It’s a beautiful community. I used to work out by myself, but then a friend told me about FitFam. I joined once and thought to myself that I would never return because it felt too tough for me at the time. However, I haven’t skipped a session since I first joined!
And now, I’m one of the volunteer leaders
The FitFam Impact
It helps me grow by sharing my passion and supporting others in achieving their goals to become better versions of themselves, including my own.
I have also learned to be disciplined and persistent.
Becoming a FitFam leader
In the beginning, I was nervous and unsure if I could do it, but I encouraged myself to just go for it. I started by learning a warm-up, then stretching, and eventually took on the tasks we usually split with other leaders.
Being one of FitFam's volunteer leaders has helped me grow. It challenges me to keep learning how to be a better leader and how to nurture this beautiful community.
Becoming a leader has certainly had a positive impact on me. I’ve learned how to take on responsibilities, communicate effectively, and bring positive energy to those around me.
Why become a FitFam leader?
Just do it! Remember, we all start somewhere. Step out of your comfort zone and keep your goals in mind. We’ll always have your back.
Favorite Sweat and Connect moments
The moment I first took the lead was a mix of nervousness, excitement and exhilaration.
Anything else you would like to share?
I hope we can expand FitFam into more cities globally and motivate others to stay active and connected. As for our leaders, I hope we can become more united as a team and as FitFam members. We are not just a fitness community; we are family, and we are one. Together, we can continue to make a positive impact on others and inspire them to stay healthy.
