This week we were happy to receive a copy of the CNBC "On the Move in Shanghai" feature about Dragonfly that was aired on 11 October. A nice piece that was very flattering and that has been mentioned by many friends who saw it.

This week we had the pleasure of welcoming Adele Duncan, the new Retreat Manager for the Dragonfly @ Burjuman in Dubai. Adele hails from Scotland originally but was most recently working in a luxury spa in Spain - and before that onboard cruise ships for several years working for Steiner.
Adele had her share of "China experiences" (adventures) but departed safely on Saturday after a week of introduction to Dragonfly and to her new team of experienced Dragonfly staff that will be heading to Dubai to man the shop at its opening.

We had a wonderful 1 page feature article about Dragonfly and founder Georgie Yam (entitled "Spas for Every Man - Dragonfly Therapeutic Retreats" ) in the July/August edition of AsiaSpa. (1.2mb)

After nearly 3 months of diligent support in Shanghai, we are sad to see our first student intern, Gervais Yam from Singapore head home. Gervais has been working with us on our RnR brand and has made a valuable contribution to our team. He will return back to Sing to spread the gospel of relaxation -- and conveniently will miss the bone-chilling Shanghai winter.

We are happy to have Adele Duncan our new Retreat Manager for Dubai visiting Shanghai for a week from today for her indoctrination in relaxation!

We have a new member join our team this week - our new Finance Director, "Tommy" Huang Yong. Tommy studied English in university and is a chartered accountant who has been working for many years with Japanese companies - so we will improve his English skills while he improves our finance and accounting procedures to tighten up our ship.
