Learn-To-Row
|
Our Learn-to-Row (LTR) sessions are open to all students that have completed 7th grade and are interested in advancing to sweep-style rowing in "bigger boats". During the two-week session, adolescents who are new to sweep rowing (one oar per rower) learn safety procedures and rowing techniques by starting in the Pittsford Indoor Rowing Center (PIRC). This unique facility offers a safe environment in which they can quickly learn the basic techniques, and then quickly progress to rowing on the canal.
Our goal at Pittsford Crew is safety first, followed by fostering a new love for rowing. LTR will allow new rowers to progress at a speed that is comfortable and enjoyable for them.
Location: All classes are held at the Pittsford Crew rowing facility.
