Dragon Boat Racing and Outdoor Paddling Pratice
Have you ever wanted to race a Dragon?
Starting neck to neck the Dragons wait. Suddenly a horn sounds. Water churns, The wind rushes. Drums pound. Twenty paddlers move as one, driving the dragon’s head then tail across the finish line.
Outdoor practice is when we build off the training and conditioning from pool practice and paddle outdoors on the water. We continue to develop our paddling technique, endurance, and synergy as we prepare for races.
Our coaches are with us for every paddle stroke to guide both our seasoned paddlers and newcomers. Water Season focuses on getting race ready as well as having fun in the sun!
Pool Practice and Other Land Based Training
Dragon Boat Pool Practice?
Ever pictured a Dragon Boat inside a swimming pool? While RI Phoenix doesn't have a pool that massive, we do offer have the next best thing! We practice our form and timing right from the pool's edge, mimicking what we do in the boat.
Pool season can be the best time for new members to join. It allows us to help you build strength and master proper technique before we ever hit the open water.
Our coaches can easily get multiple vantage points to provide tailored, 1-on-1 coaching to get new paddlers up to speed and veterans feedback to refine their technique. Land Season focuses on getting or staying fit, team fundraising and building team camaraderie!
