DRAGON BOATING

Dragon boating is a thrilling water sport where a team of paddlers work together to propel a long, narrow boat through the water. Originating from ancient Chinese traditions, it combines strength, coordination, and teamwork to glide smoothly across the water. This sport offers numerous health benefits, serving as a full-body workout that enhances cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, and endurance.
Beyond the physical advantages, dragon boating fosters a sense of camaraderie and belonging within the team, promoting mental well-being and reducing stress. Its low-impact nature also makes it an ideal choice for people of various fitness levels, including veterans and those with mobility challenges.
