Having a close relationship with the Ottawa Paddling Community, Rideau CrossFit is now providing dragonboat ergometer training sessions on the KayakPro Multistroke Dragonboat Ergometer. This is the same ergometer used by the Canadian National Dragonboat Team for training and testing. With the competitive dragonboat season fast approaching, now is the ideal time to perfect your technique and improve your basic movement patterns in our small groups capped at 6/session. These classes run for 8 weeks and cover our technical progressions to dramatically improve your understanding of the dragonboat stroke and gain confidence in your technique. Once a week sessions will devote the entire session to the technical understanding and progression of the Dragonboat stroke, while the twice a week program will dedicate one session per week to technical progressions with the other session focused on the application of your technique within the context of a workout.

Our coaches have thousands of hours of coaching and training experience in dragonboat, having won multiple international level festivals, and having coached many crews to podium results at international level festivals. Some of the usual suspects that can be found training at our facility include crew members from the teams at the Tim Hortons Ottawa Dragonboat Festival, including the Paddle Demons, The HellFish, bobblake.ca, terrylonghorn.com, the Ottawa Galley Girls Premier Women, Fleet of Foote, Something’s on Fire, Bytown Ottawa Sportchicks, Ottawa Dragon Masters, and many others.

Our Winter sessions this year will cover 8 weeks from Saturday February 29, 2020 – Friday April 24, 2020. All sessions run for 1 hour, and space is limited so register early to reserve your spot! Sessions will only run if there are at least 3 people scheduled.
