Learn to Row Course

Saltford Rowing Centre is thrilled to announce a fantastic opportunity for adults looking to dive into the world of rowing. The upcoming Learn to Row Course is designed for individuals of all ages and fitness levels who are keen to learn the ropes of rowing or sculling.

On April 13th, 2024, Saltford Rowing Centre will be hosting a Taster Day, offering a taste of what the club has to offer. Participants will receive an introduction to the club, get familiar with the equipment, receive coaching on land using an indoor rowing machine, and cap it off with a session on the river. All of this comes at a price of just £20.

For those who catch the rowing bug during the Taster Day, the ten-week Learn to Row Course kicks off on April 27th, 2024. Training sessions are scheduled for Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings, with occasional Sunday morning slots also available. The course fee is £120, which includes a handy Learn to Row information book and a stylish club t-shirt upon successful completion.

Participants in the course will be guided through sculling and sweep rowing techniques, starting from stable single boats and gradually progressing to crew boats. Upon completion, individuals have the option to join the club as an adult member in the Development Squad. Here, they will have the chance to go on planned outings with their learn to row group, further honing their skills and gaining valuable experience.

This is a wonderful opportunity to learn the art of rowing in a supportive and friendly group setting, while also improving fitness levels and basking in the stunning surroundings that Saltford Rowing Centre has to offer. Don't miss out on this exciting chance to kickstart your rowing journey!
