7th Annual Learn-to-Row Program Kicks Off
On May 1st and 2nd, the first 30 men and women joined this year's class of new DC Strokes rowers. Between May 3rd and 6th, another 30 men and women will join us for Learn-to-Row.
Since 2004, DC Strokes has taught over 350 men and women the basics of rowing. We have also offered numerous custom classes for specific groups wishing to do a team building exercise or just offer a fun activity.
Many of our trainee rowers have gone onto our Novice Program, a 5-month program designed exclusively for new rowers to build basic skills and rowing ability. The Learn-to-Row program combined with the novice program gives news rowers a full 6 months of introductory and beginner training before joining experienced rowers in our competitive or club programs.
This year continues to be another exciting year for DC Strokes. We celebrate our successes as we embard on our 20th year and our 7th offering Learn to Row. We are looking forward to seeing all of our new members learn about rowing and enjoy their time on the water.
Are you still interested in LTR and missed signing up? Contact the Programs Director for Weekday openings. Don't wait! Classes start May 3rd and 4th.
