2018 Learn-to-Row Summer II Rocketts Landing
Coaches - Bailey Hughes and Grayson Junker
The Virginia Boat Club's Learn-To-Row program teaches adults how to sweep row in a rowing shell (4 or 8 person boats with a coxswain). Each class is approximately 90-minute each.
In the class students will learn proper rowing technique both on indoor rowing machines and on the water. Students will learn parts of the stroke, blade technique as well as rowing terminology and boat safety. In the event of rain, classes will be held indoors.
For each class bring water to stay hydrated. Form fitting clothing is best, as baggy clothing can get caught in the sliding seat as you row. You will also need athletic shoes and sports socks.
The twelve classes will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays at 6:00 PM and on Saturday mornings at 7:30 AM beginning Monday August 13th.
