Don’t let the playful nickname fool you—this program is all about serious commitment and becoming the fittest dad you can be.
Through a combination of knowledge, awareness, and intentional healthy habits, DadsAF harnesses the power of like-minded men in a supportive group setting to deliver impressive results.
By participating in DadsAF, you’ll gain the tools needed to cultivate lasting, healthy habits that will benefit you and serve as a positive example for your children and community.

The Power of Community and Spirit
DadsAF believes in the power of community and spirituality to inspire and support one another through a transformative journey. Our program leverages these powerful forces to help you prepare for a moderately challenging 10-mile whitewater rafting trip—a thrilling capstone that tests and celebrates all you’ve achieved over the course of the program. We will run the Alberton Gorge section of the Clark Fork River, led by a veteran guide and area local on Saturday June 22, 2024.

The Multiplier Effect of Community
DadsAF is about more than just learning; it’s about practicing the lessons we share and leveraging the multiplying effect of community to achieve improved results. By participating in our program, you’ll benefit from the added layers of support and accountability provided by the group. Just as teams and families share many common attributes, we believe that focusing on team-building principles will help you build a fitter family at home.
