Calling all adventure-seekers, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone who’s ever dreamed of powering a dragon boat across the water—mark your calendars for April 26, 2025! Japan Dragons is thrilled to announce our Newbie Day, a trial session where you can dive into the world of dragon boating, no experience required. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just curious about something new, this is your chance to grab a paddle, join a crew, and feel the thrill of the water.
What’s Newbie Day All About?
Picture this: a crisp spring day at Kallang River, boats lined up and gleaming, and a team of friendly paddlers and professional coaches ready to show you the ropes. Newbie Day is our way of throwing open the doors to dragon boating—a sport that’s equal parts power, rhythm, and teamwork. On April 26, we’ll be hosting a hands-on trial session where you’ll learn the basics, hop into a boat, and experience the rush of paddling in sync with a crew. No prior skills needed—just a willingness to try something awesome.
What to Expect
- Meeting Time: Saturday, April 26, 2025, at 1:00 PM
- Meeting Points: Stadium MRT Station or Kallang MRT Station
- Start Time: 2:00 PM
- Location: Kallang Dragonboat Nursery
- What to Bring: Comfortable workout clothes, water, and enthusiasm (we’ll supply the paddles and life jackets!)
The day kicks off with a warm welcome and a quick rundown of dragon boating essentials—think safety tips and how to wield a paddle without accidentally launching it. Then, it’s straight to the water! You’ll team up with our experienced paddlers for drills, practice syncing, and maybe even a mini race to cap it off. Expect a bit of splashing, a lot of laughs, and that unbeatable feeling when the boat surges forward as one.
Why Dragon Boating?
Dragon boating isn’t just a workout—it’s a vibe. It’s the adrenaline of racing, the camaraderie of a crew, and the satisfaction of mastering a stroke that’s been around for centuries. Plus, it’s a full-body challenge that builds strength, endurance, and teamwork skills, all while soaking in the outdoors. Whether you’re looking to spice up your fitness routine, meet new people, or just try something epic, this sport has it all.
Who’s Invited?
Everyone! Newbie Day is for anyone who’s ready to give it a go. No boat? No problem. No clue how to paddle? We’ve got you covered. Our team is a mix of seasoned pros and former newbies who fell in love with the sport, and we’re excited to welcome fresh faces into the fold.
Why Join Us?
Our team isn’t just about paddling—it’s about building a community. From the moment you step onto the dock, you’re part of something bigger. We’ll cheer you on as you find your rhythm and celebrate every splash along the way. Newbie Day isn’t just a trial; it’s your first step toward joining a crew that’s all about pushing limits, having fun, and chasing that dragon boat high together.
