Event information

Registrations for this event are not currently available.

Learn to row over 6 Sunday mornings with our friendly coaches in a course designed for the complete beginner.  The next course commences Sunday 20th October from 7:00-9:00am, at a cost of $300.  All equipment is supplied in this course, which will teach you about the boats, the equipment and the rowing stroke, and will see you on the water by Week 1 and at the Narrows Bridge by Week 6.

Please note that rowing on the Swan River is weather dependent. If we need to cancel a session for boat safety reasons, we will schedule another lesson at the end of the course. We will make every endeavor to find a day that will suit most if not all attendees.

While at the beginner level aerobic fitness is not required, you do need to be able to lift a boat overhead (as part of a crew), be able to swim 100m and your body needs to be mobile enough to compress up during the stroke.  It’s a good idea to do some stretching before and after every session.

Bring a friend and have a go!
