A dragon boat is a human-powered watercraft traditional in Asia. The now internationally popular amateur competitive sport of dragon boat racing has its roots in an ancient Chinese folk ritual.
The exciting activity requires high energy yet can be enjoyed by people of diverse ages and fitness levels.
A typical crew is 20 paddlers, a steersperson (cox) and a drummer. Several companies provide the equipment, training, and coaching for any group to become a dragon boat team.
Teamwork is essential, because as one company says "synchronicity is more important than strength. A perfectly synchronized team will almost always beat a stronger, but less coordinated team."
Corporations find that the experiences of dealing with the fast pace and challenges of adapting to external environments help build on-job skills of camaraderie and personal accountability and achievement.
Facilitators can customize a team experience that is an extended part an overall company event, an entry in an organized dragon boat festival, or simply as a two-hour workshop.
