Adult Learn to Row is designed to introduce adults to rowing in a fun, relaxed, and safe environment. In this program, athletes will learn boat basics, basic rowing mechanics and technique, and gain experience in a wide variety of sizes and types of boats. This program follows the “Learn to Train” pathway and athletes will be expected to meet certain competencies before moving on to other programs. Athletes who complete this program may choose to move on to the Adult Recreation or Adult Masters program, based on coach discretion and their training goals.

Age: 18+ years

Practices: 2-3 sessions per week, July 3 to September 1, 2023.

Should weather conditions not permit on-water activities, we will have off-water workouts at the club’s erg facility (located at Max Fitness on New Cove Road). 

No previous experience required!

A swim test is not required for adult rowing programs; however, when you join you must confirm that you can swim well and will be comfortable if your boat flips and you find yourself in the water. 

Registration is now open for the Summer 2023 season!
