Dragons Abreast Townsville Inc. Dragon boat paddling for survivors of breast cancer & their supporters. Connect.Move.Live

Commonly called "The Pinkies" Dragons Abreast Townsville is part of the National movement of Dragons Abreast clubs who, through the team sport of Dragon boat paddling, seek to help people with a diagnosis of breast cancer understand they can lead full and active lives despite the physical limitations imposed by breast surgery. We do this by encouraging individuals to “achieve their dream” of regaining an active, adventurous lifestyle despite a diagnosis of breast cancer. Through our activities we seek to promote breast cancer awareness in the community by being a face to the breast cancer statistics and promoting early detection and diagnosis.

Breast cancer awareness month!! Check your girls! 🎀💝

THIS OCTOBER, TAKE THE FIRST STROKE!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is about hope, strength, support, and living life to the fullest.

At Dragons Abreast Australia, we see the power of connection every day. We see women who have faced breast cancer discover new confidence, lasting friendships, and the joy of achieving something extraordinary together.

And we'd love you to experience it too!

Join us for a Come & Try Session and see why dragon boating changes lives.

✅ No experience required ✅ Supportive and welcoming team environment ✅ Fun, fitness, friendship, and fresh air ✅ Open to breast cancer survivors at any stage of their journey

You don't have to be sporty. You don't have to be fit. You just have to be willing to take that first stroke.

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, say YES to something new. Say YES to connection. Say YES to Dragons Abreast Australia.

Get in touch today or visit our website to find your nearest crew and register for a Come & Try Session.
