What is rowing?

Rowing is a full body workout that uses your legs to supply the main power. Rowing is a social sport, even if you are just rowing by yourself. The majority of rowers row in crews of two, four and eight.

Rowers strive for perfect synchronization in the boat, clean catches of the oar blade as it drops into the water. Rowers use either one oar (called sweeping) or two (called sculling).

Rowing is that it is a lifetime sport

The best way to learn about rowing is to experience it for yourself.
