Adult rowers over the age of 21 are all considered "Masters". We offer classes and coaching for rowers at all skill levels, from brand new beginners to elite masters competitors. Course offerings depend on the time of year.

Why is Masters rowing becoming so popular?
Rowing is a great total body workout. It uses all of the body’s major muscle groups (arms, legs, back, abdomen, and buttocks). Although strenuous, it is low impact, and improves flexibility and strengthens the back. It can also help prevent and manage osteoporosis.
High intensity rowing burns over 800 calories per hour.
Rowing relieves stress. It’s not just the exercise and endorphins that make rowing such a good stress reliever. There is a meditative quality in the repetitive rhythm of the stroke. Beautiful sunsets over tranquil waters don’t hurt either.
You can row with others or on your own. We have rowing shells for 8 people, 4 people, 2 people, or 1 person. Once you complete our Developmental program you can continue on in our Coached/Competitive program or you can row any time in our boats (subject to safety rules and procedures). If you want to row singles you will also need to complete our Learn to Scull program and pass a Flip Test.
