Welcome to Dragons Abreast Toronto
We are Toronto’s first breast cancer paddler dragon boat team, dedicated to improving fitness and quality of life for breast cancer survivors. Established in 1997, we are now one of over 150 breast cancer survivor teams worldwide that serve to promote dragon boating as part of a healthy lifestyle, and provide a unique support for those fighting cancer.
We are a diverse community of people who have shared a life-changing experience, and the dragon boat is a symbol of our survivor-ship and strength. By taking part in this challenging, yet gratifying sport, we strive to achieve our personal best in hopes of empowering and inspiring others who are going through this journey.
