A Great Inclusive Sport
Why Try Dragonboating?
Dragonboating is great sport and open to the highly competitive athlete or somebody who has never tried sport since their schooldays. Dragonboat clubs offer a variety of opportunities from those who want to push their physical and mental limits competing nationally or eventually internationally to others who just want to improve their health no matter how unfit. Either way the sport fosters a great club spirit and is excellent for mind and body. What’s more your first session is FREE! All equipment provided and it takes place in the fantastic setting of Liverpool’s vibrant Albert Dock network. So what have you go tto lose?
Whether intrigued or you still need more convincing, have a peek at the video below and get a glimpse of what Dragonboating can be all about.
What is Dragonboating?
Dragonboating typically involves paddling a large canoe style boat with up to 20 other people in the same boat, together. There are variations on boat size but the principle of the exercise is pretty much identical in all. It is an excellent activity to improve cardiovascular fitness, strengthen muscle, increase mobility, relieveing stress and all while promoting teamwork.
