Where it all started – The Ripple Club’s Inspirational Journey
In 2007, Ms. Alicia Dedigama got diagnosed with a Patellofemoral syndrome, restricting her from most physical activities. Discovering solace in aqua biking, she found a way to manage knee pain effectively. However, upon relocating to Singapore in 2011, the absence of a similar exercise modality prompted Ms. Dedigama and her husband, Mr. Yannick Dedigama, to embark on a mission. In 2012, fueled by passion, they left their jobs, bought 13 aqua bikes, and launched Aquaspin, now known as The Ripple Club.
The journey, wasn’t without its challenges. The concept of cycling in water was new and met with perplexity, making it imperative to educate the sceptical audience and push them to try out this unconventional fitness activity. As they delved into uncharted waters, The Ripple Club emerged not just as a business but as a testament to resilience and innovation.
Where it all started – The Ripple Club’s Inspirational Journey
At The Ripple Club, inclusivity is ingrained in every ripple of their aqua fitness workouts. Recognizing water as a powerful equaliser, Ms. Alicia Dedigama and Mr. Yannick Dedigama, have crafted an environment where effort determines resistance. The water’s responsive nature ensures that participants, regardless of their fitness levels or backgrounds, experience a tailored workout that aligns with their abilities.
Central to their approach is the use of positive cues and motivational mantras. These verbal reinforcements serve as guiding lights, inspiring each individual to exert their best effort. In this aquatic realm, The Ripple Club doesn’t just provide a workout; it fosters a supportive space where every participant, irrespective of their starting point, is encouraged to push boundaries and embark on a journey of self-improvement.
