Learn to Row

Hawthorn Rowing Club's Learn to Row program aims to introduce the 200-year old sport of rowing to a wide range of adult community members. Have you been curious to give rowing a try? Did you row for a short time during school and are eager to regain fitness? Envious of watching others glide along the Yarra and ready to do something about it? 

  • The program is run over 5 sessions of 90 minutes held on Saturday and Sunday’s starting with a land-based session to learn technique using rowing machines and then progressing to sessions on the water developing your skills in a crewed boat.

  • The cost for the program is $230 which includes all 5 sessions with an accredited rowing coach, use of gym equipment for the program, rowing boats and registration with Rowing Victoria for Insurance.

  • Once you have completed the program there is the option to continue rowing with the club by becoming a member and joining the Rowing Development sessions or progressing your rowing skills with one of the club’s private coaches either one on one or with a group.
