Getting into the Sport of Rowing
We are excited to welcome you to the Pocock Rowing Center! We look forward to sharing our love of rowing with you. Rowing is a sport you can learn at any age and we believe that it can be a transformative experience for athletes of every level.
If you are new to the sport of rowing, take a Learn to Row class or private lessons to get started in the sport!
Learn to Row classes are 3 weeks long and will teach you how to row in a single. This class includes safety on the waterway, boat handling, rowing language, and the mechanics of the rowing stroke.
Membership is not required for Learn to Row classes. Once you have completed the Learn to Row class you can become a member by contacting Member Services.
Private lessons are available upon request. See below for details.
