Hudson River Rowing Association- FREE Learn-to-Row Workshop

Description

The HRRA invites you to take part in our FREE indoor Learn-to-Row Workshop on Saturday, March 7, 2015, from 1 to 3pm at the HRRA Boathouse at 270-272 N. Water Street in Poughkeepsie. We welcome those age 12 and older, to enroll in our FREE indoor Learn-to-Row Workshop.. Come meet HRRA adult rowers of all levels, talk with HRRA coaches, take a tour of the boathouse and give rowing a try in our indoor tanks and on the indoor rowing machines. This is a great way to ''test the waters'' and see which program may be right for you! We will demonstrate the basics of rowing on the ergometer (erg) and give hands-on-lessons in the tanks. Our highly skilled coaches and volunteers will teach the fundamentals of sweep rowing, covering basics such as terminology, boat parts, common commands and sweep rowing technique. To register for our FREE Learn-to Row Workshop on March 7, go to http://www.hudsonriverrowing.org/novice-learn-to-row.html. Rowing is a lifelong sport and an activity that can be enjoyed by all ages. It is a low impact sport that is easy on the joints, promotes greater flexibility and improves balance. Rowing exercises all major muscle groups and enhances cardiovascular endurance. You will build friendships, develop discipline, see for yourself the importance of teamwork, and enjoy an experience of camaraderie and fun.
