Move with DFX | DevelopmentalFX

MOVE WITH DFX is a virtual festival of movement to engage our community in our upcoming relocation to the Clayton Campus! It is 8 miles from our current location on Iliff Avenue to our new home on the Clayton Campus, so we have created a virtual event to build energy around our move by inviting you to MOVE WITH DFX!

CLICK HERE FOR KEY DATES OF THE RELOCATION AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The challenge is to move 8 miles during the month of August. Participants can move in any way they choose – walk, run, bike, use a scooter, skateboard, or paddleboard, swim, hike – just get out there! Exercise in your favorite way, or try something new!

We’re sharing fun videos from our staff, board, and supporters talking about how they are Moving with DFX – click on the descriptions below to watch these videos on YouTube and get inspired to Move with DFX!!

Tracy Stackhouse is playing pickleball 8 times in August	Lindsay Beckerman is paddleboarding 8 miles in 8 bodies of water
Hannah Zax is hiking 8 miles	Diane Lowry is moving 8 miles in the Costa Rican rainforest
Becca Helbraun hiked Mt. Flora!	Susan Kramer is running 8 times in Evergreen
Liz Doris is walking in Washington, D.C.	Rob Baumgarten is hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park

It is free to participate, but if you want to go a step further, you can donate to DFX and invite family and friends to pledge their support as well. Pledges start at $8.00 and every donation gets us closer to our goal of raising $80,000 to support the renovation of the space to create a new clinic that is a welcoming, energizing, and healing place.
