Testimonials

Our team chose Dragon Boat Safety USA Safety Training Course to provide group training for our seasoned steerers and steering candidates. Thaddeus' experience and commitment to the sport are apparent through his targeted curriculum and engagement with the participants. He hits all the necessary disciplines a seasoned or novice steersperson must take to heart as they take the helm and lead their team's safety culture and program. The 4 hours course is a small investment in time for the knowledge and insight you will gain into safe dragon boat practices! - Petra, Alameda Dragon Flyers

The dragon boat safety training with DBSUSA was a great learning experience. The session was engaging and the instructor did a great job walking us through a well-organized lesson plan. I left with more confidence as a steersman and a higher awareness on the boat to keep my crew safe. - Vincent, KP Dragons

Oyster Point Dragons has always appreciated Thaddeus Hunt and his longstanding commitment to safety and steering education for the Dragon Boat community. Recently, we were able to hire him through his company, Dragon Boat Safety USA, to complete a comprehensive course in dragon boat safety for a group of our members interested in steering our boats. This session was perfect for all ages as we have both teenagers and adults interested in steering our boats.

Some of us have taken his steersperson training course before, but still learn so much each time we participate. He takes the time to impress on his students that steering is a major responsibility with the potential for disastrous circumstances if not taken seriously. He goes step by step through all the risks associated with being on the water and then helps everyone become comfortable with ways to help mitigate those risks. We highly recommend every member of the Dragon Boat community complete this training but it is essential for any steersperson or leader of a Dragon Boat team. - Tiffany, Oyster Point Dragons
