| Winter Learn-to-Row Classes |
|
We are now accepting registrations for our popular winter learn-to-row session. This course for adults is a three-phase Learn to Row program which focuses initially on indoor rowing, but includes on-the-water training as soon as weather permits. Your class tuition of $275 includes club membership through June 2012.
Phase I: Classes on rowing fundamentals and rowing technique will take place on ten successive Tuesday and Thursday evenings February 7 to March 8, 2012, from 7:30-9:00PM. They will be held at our boathouse at Creve Coeur Lake.
Phase II: Until the weather gets warm enough to row on the lake, you will have the opportunity to practice indoor rowing with our experienced adult rowers. They have regularly scheduled, coached workout sessions on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6:00PM.
Phase III: On the water: as a class, we will have your first water row on Sunday, March 11, from 10am–12pm, weather permitting. If Mother Nature interferes, we’ll reschedule this session. Following completion of Learn-to-Row, you are encouraged to continue rowing with our Intermediates (Novice) Adult rowers at no additional charge: your class tuition also includes club membership through June 2012.
For more information, call 314-434-8299 or email stlouisrowing_info@yahoo.com. To register, download our registration flyer, and mail the form with your check to the address on the flyer. To enroll online, visit our Dues/Payments page and select the Winter Learn-to-Row button in the Adult Rowers column. |

Local station HEC-TV sent reporter Aaron Mermelstein to cover our participation in the Wash U head race regatta in October. Half his report focuses on our adult novice (a/k/a INTERMEDIATES) squad, and those ladies did us proud. If you missed it on TV, you can watch the clip here. |
