SEASONAL PROGRAMS
access limited to program-specific days and times
Intro to Row $60.00 (14 yr old and up)
This hour and a half program will introduce participants to the wonderful activity of rowing. Using an easy going and fun approach, we will teach you the basic ins and outs. After learning about the safety protocol, the equipment, and experiencing the motion on the rowing machine, we’ll be ready for the water. We’ll carry the boats to the dock, spend some time at the dock side getting a feel for things, and then we’ll be off on the water for the rest of the session!
Available on:
Wednesday 7-8:30pm (May 25th, June 8th, June 22nd, June 29th, July 20th, August 24th)
Sunday 9-10:30am (May 29th, June 19th, July 3rd, July 31st)
This more in-depth program is designed to take newcomers from dock side to rowing in 2 weeks. We will spend our first session learning about the equipment, trying the motion of rowing on the rowing machines, and covering the safety protocol. Sessions 2 and 3 will be spent in larger training boats, where we will cover the mechanics of a stroke and boat maneuverability. Sessions 4 and 5 will be spent refining the stroke, and working with more power and speed application as participants get more comfortable. Also in those sessions, you will have the opportunity to spend time in smaller boats like a double or a single. Finally in the 6th session, you will be invited to come out for a practice with our members in larger racing shells. This will give you an idea of how well a boat can move when everyone is working together. This will also introduce you to the membership and enable you to meet future rowing partners.
