Why row?

  • Rowing is a non-impact sport, which is good if you suffer from ankle, knee, hip or lower-back pain because of problematic joints.

  • Virtually every joint and muscle in your body is involved in rowing. Rowing allows you to exercise your entire body in one time-efficient workout.

  • Rowing is a non contact sport, which means you can enjoy the thrill of tough competition without the risk of getting injured by one of your competitors.

  • You get to train and race as a team and meet new friends along the way that will last you a lifetime

  • Rowing builds character, and teaches you skills that will stay with you for life

  • Rowing will help tone and strengthen your major muscles and is good for your heart and lungs. The fitter these essential organs are, the lower your risks of suffering heart disease, a heart attack or stroke.
