Wednesday warriors!! It was our last training session before Vic Champs this weekend!
💖🐲🔥
Full boat, strong and ready to support and lift each other.
Keeping it clean, keeping it fast, and leaving a bit in the tank.
It was a great session with Coach Lindy on the drum, Kris and Linda on the Sweep oar, plenty of paddling and finishing off with a few renditions of Happy Birthday as the sun set !
Ready to roll with this crew this weekend 💪💖🐲🔥
Reminder- no training at Docklands this weekend as our team are competing at the state titles.
Goooooo Pink Phoenix!

Happy International Womens Day to all our wonderful women! 💖🐲🔥

Today we celebrate International Women's Day and the strength, resilience and spirit of women everywhere.

For Dragons Abreast Australia, every day is a reminder of what women can achieve together. Our community of breast cancer survivors (both women and men) shows that through connection, movement and support, we can overcome challenges, lift each other up and reach extraordinary heights. We celebrate courage, friendship and the power of women supporting women.

Here's to strong women. May we know them. May we be them. May we paddle beside them.

Wednesday Warriors on the water!
💖🐲🔥
Full boat! That’s 21 fab phoenixes on board!
We were treated to a beautiful moody sun set over glassy water. It was a fantastic session coached by Nicky with plenty of paddling. Great to have Kaylene back in the boat for her second paddle, followed by the perfect ending - dinner together afterwards at San Marzano Pizzeria !

Saturday we paddled on the Yarra River
💖🐲🔥
For some, their very first time seeing the Melbourne skyline from the water,
for others, a view we never tire of.
What a pleasure to paddle together in the late summer warmth in the heart of our beautiful city!
