How it works?
Your 1-Month Free Trial Journey
We want you to feel right at home the second you step onto the dock. To give you the best experience, we launch a new beginner group on the 1st of every month. Here is what to expect:
Step 1: Save Your Spot – Fill out the short form above to register for an upcoming month.
Step 2: Welcome & Scheduling – Our team will message you on WhatsApp to confirm your start date and details.
Step 3: Meet The Group (1 Week Prior) – One week before start, we will add you to a WhatsApp group chat. You can ask questions and meet the other beginners early!
Step 4: Get your Free Pass – before your first session, we will help register for your Free Dragon Pass, which entitles you to a month of dragon boat . Note: Dragon Pass is for brand-new paddlers only. If you have used a Dragon Pass anywhere in Victoria before, you’ll just need to jump straight to our Membership Section.
Step 5: Hit the Water! – Your trial month begins! We provide the paddles, life jackets, and coaching—you just bring the energy.
