Dance instructor leads workout while certified diabetes educators monitor blood pressure & glucose for diabetes risk & educational use
According to data gathered by the National Institute of Health in 2011, diabetes affects 8.3% of the U.S. population, increasing their risk for kidney failure, blindness, heart disease, and death. Dance Out Diabetes hosts a variety of free dance-fitness and educational programs to help prevent diabetes and provide support for people with diabetes and their families.
During Dance Out Diabetes' events, certified diabetes educators test participants' weight, blood pressure, and blood glucose levels to identify those at risk of diabetes and discuss healthy practices and nutrition for people with diabetes. A professional instructor will engage the class with a structured 45-minute dance session followed by a free-style dance with other participants. After the workout, groups study the effect of dance on blood-glucose and blood-pressure levels to demonstrate how physical activity improves overall health, including diabetes risk factors. Participants and their family members will also have a chance to meet one-on-one with a certified diabetes educator to ask specific health-related questions. Since Dance Out Diabetes targets an underserved population, event coordinators still need help funding the costs of medical supplies and dance-instructor fees for this event.
Join G-Team and donate $10 to help raise awareness about diabetes for at-risk individuals. If G-Team members raise $400, then Dance Out Diabetes can fund a two-hour dance and educational event to help 40 underserved people manage and prevent diabetes. Each additional $10 raised will fund participation in the event for another at-risk individual.
Unlike traditional Groupon deals, G-Team campaigns typically don't offer you a "discount" or "savings." So "buyer" beware—when you click "Buy" to donate your time or money to a worthwhile G-Team cause, the only discount you may receive is 100% off free, priceless karma. Read more about G-Team.
