Rowing is a great way to get fit and have fun. As a member of our club you can decide whether you want an occasional social row or train on a regular basis in order to row competitively or help improve your fitness.
LEARN TO ROW
If you want to learn to row or want to take up rowing again come along to a taster session. Join us for up to 3 taster sessions before deciding whether you wish to continue and become a member of the club. Taster sessions are free but a donation to help club funds would be appreciated.
We recommend you wear layers of clothing, nothing to bulky or restrictive, and tracksuit bottoms or sport leggings/shorts. Bring a waterproof/windproof jacket and cyclist gloves, if you have a pair. You will get your feet wet getting in and out of the gig so we suggest a pair of waterproof shoes with a sturdy sole or old pair of trainers. In the winter many of our rowers wear wellington boots.
Don’t forget to bring some water it is important that you keep yourself hydrated.
