Want to give rowing a try and have fun?
This October we're running a 5 day Holiday Learn to Row Course which will be a great opportunity for young people who have not tried rowing before to have a go and learn, not only how to row in single boat but also how to work as a crew.
Experienced rowers will benefit from coaching focused on pushing their skills to be come better and more confident rowers.
Sessions
Monday 28th October - Friday 1st November
14:00 - 16:00pm
This week-long course is designed to teach you the basics of rowing and help you discover if it's the sport for you. Throughout the course, you'll learn:
- The rowing stroke
- How to row as part of a crew
- How to safely get a boat on and off the water
- How to use a rowing machine
If you already have some experience, our skilled coaches will help you refine your technique. The course includes four and a half water sessions and a half session in the gym followed by a thorough safety brief.
This course is open to:
- Children aged 12–18
- All fitness levels
- Both beginners and experienced rowers
All participants must be able to swim although buoyancy aids are mandatory (though we don’t anticipate needing this skill, it’s required for safety). You'll be taught how to scull (row with two oars) by experienced rowers and coaches. If you have any special requirements, please let us know in advance.
Spaces are limited, and there's been a lot of interest, so be sure to book your spot as soon as possible!
