LEARN TO ROW
The Collingwood Learn to Row program is designed to introduce participants to the sport of rowing, teaching proper sculling technique for anyone that has no prior rowing experience.
The program includes 10 hours (one 2-hour session and two 3-hour sessions)
of small group coaching.
We will cover equipment handling and safety, getting in and out of the boat, stroke sequence, rowing, backing, turning and docking.
