WRRA Learn to Row (LTR)

Welcome to the wonderful sport of rowing!

We have a few open spot for Learn to Row on 4/23.  Follow directions to register on Boathouse Connect and you will be approved if there is still room.

Program Description
Learn to Row is a half day instructional session which introduces new rowers to the sport of rowing on the Cuyahoga River. LTR is an opportunity for adults (18 and older) to experience the sport of rowing and determine interest in joining Cleveland’s rowing community through WRRA’s Summer Rowing League or Veterans Rowing League. WRRA instructors will teach the basics of the sport of rowing, river safety, rowing terminology, and boat handling. Participants will receive instruction on basic rowing technique using a stationary rowing machine (erg), and a 90 minute (give or take a passing freighter or two) on-the-water practice, rowing in an eight-person boat.

Two sessions will be offered each day.
