Beginner Coached Program
INFORMATION ON COACHED PROGRAMS FOR THE 2011 ROWING SEASON IS STILL BEING COMPILED. PLEASE CHECK BACK IN THE NEW YEAR!
The Head Coach of the Beginner programs is Anne Strobridge.
Message from the coaches:
Welcome! As part of the coached novice program, you'll be one of the newest members in the Rocky Mountain Rowing Club (RMRC). As your rowing coach, my emphasis will be on safety and fun, in the process of gaining an appreciation of the sport of rowing. You'll row "sweep" in our "eight" person rowing shell, steered by a coxswain, and in sweep oared "fours". Once the weather and water warm up, you may choose to learn to row a single sculling boat. One of our goals this year is for you to race in at least one regatta! Before you know it, you'll be in love with this great sport!
Anne learned to row at Rocky Mountain Rowing Club in 2005, progressed through the novice, intermediate and competitive programs. She has medaled at US Rowing Masters Nationals and at the San Diego Crew Classic. She's a US Rowing certified Level II coach.
If you have questions about rowing lessons, please see the Learn-to-Row web page or send an email to lessons@rockymountainrowing.org. We look forward to showing you how enjoyable rowing is!
