Adult Learn to Row 2009

This program is for adults interested in learning the basic techniques and styles of sculling and sweep rowing. The program is a low impact sport available to adults of all athletic levels. We offer four evening sessions of four weeks each. Participants may take one, several or all scheduled sessions. To reserve a seat for a session, please see the registration instructions below.

To advance to rowing in other ARC programs, you need to participate in at least one learn to row session. Advancement to the adult coached/intermediate program is dependent upon the coach’s assessment of your skill level. If you are not quite ready after your first month, you may register for one or more two week sessions until advanced by the coach.

Prerequisite

You must pass an ARC-organized swim test at the Albany Bath House. A fee of $1.00 will be collected payable to the Albany Bath House.
