Learn To Row Level 1
Learn To Row is a 4-week class that meets twice a week for 2 hours. The class will introduce the correct form and technique for sculling and sweep rowing.
In sweep rowing each rower has one oar; this demands great concentration and teamwork to achieve the timing, synchronization and grace that characterizes this sport. In sculling each rower has two oars which allows individuals to row in single boats, providing more flexibility and independence.

LTR1 and 2 in series: $200 (tax included)
