BREAST CANCER AWARENESS
​ON THE COFFS COAST...
​
Extensive research has shown that exercise benefits most people during and after cancer treatment. Dragon boat paddling provides a gentle full body workout which will help to improve your fitness, confidence and aid your return to an active, healthy lifestyle. The upper body exercise of paddling helps to improve shoulder movement post-surgery and assists with Lymphoedema management.

 New members and current Dragons Abreast members visiting the Coffs Coast are welcome. Our club offers a fun, friendly, no stress environment  where you  determine your own level of involvement.

Learn more about Dragons Abreast Coffs Coast

Dragons Abreast Coffs Coast was formed in 2007. It is the only Dragons Abreast Australia member club between Newcastle and Byron Bay. Our mission is to encourage wellness, fitness, fun and camaraderie for breast cancer survivors and supporters through the sport of dragon boating and promote the awareness throughout the community and beyond.​ 

​While DACC members have shared a similar journey we do not dwell on the past but
embrace an active life as we enjoy fun together. If you haven't paddled before you
are welcome to come along, meet the team and just give it a try.
DACC conducts a social paddling session on the Bellinger River at Mylestom or the Kalang River at Urunga on the last Sunday afternoon of each month plus we enjoy regular social events together. Let us
know if you would like to come along.​

​All Dragons Abreast Coffs Coast paddlers are required to become members of a
local sporting dragon boat club. Membership of a sporting dragon boat club is an
insurance requirement for paddling & enables us to enjoy more paddling sessions
together on all club occasions and with family, friends and fellow club members.
Breast cancer survivors are also welcome to join DACC as non-paddling, social
members & enjoy our off the water activities.
