This beginners rowing lesson in Stratford-upon-Avon is a fantastic experience that gives you a really solid introduction to crew rowing. If you were inspired by the fantastic performances by Team GB in the London 2012 Olympic rowing event, why not try it yourself with one of these fun rowing lessons? Lessons take place in both 4 and 8 men boats – with other participants also enjoying the lesson with you.This rowing lesson introduces you to competitive team rowing, so you’ll be using sliding seat racing boats and you’ll get a great sense of what it feels like to be out rowing against competitors. The lesson actually begins on dry land with a quick briefing and then some indoor learning. You’ll use rowing machines to learn the basic rowing techniques and get ‘in sync’ with your teammates, before having a quick talk on equipment and then heading for the water. You’ll spend an hour and a half out on the beautiful River Avon, putting all your new skills into practice, and trying to improve your technique and your speed. You’ll probably be ready for a break by the time you’ve finished the on-water rowing lesson, so all there is to do now is get the equipment stored and have a debrief with your instructor. You don’t need to have the fitness levels of an Olympic athlete to enjoy this rowing experience; it is designed for total novices, and your professional and highly experienced instructor will move at a pace that suits you!So if you were spurred on by the success of Team GB and want to try rowing yourself (or with a group of friends), or you’re looking for a unique gift idea for a loved one, try this Stratford-upon-Avon rowing lesson!…
