Learn to Row on Monday mornings
Come and learn to row on the river at Stratford-upon-Avon on Monday mornings. The beginner’s course is suitable for adults of all ability levels. There are 10 sessions for each course. Some of these may be indoors, learning technique on the indoor rowing machines, but most sessions (subject to safe river and weather conditions) will be on the water, leaning to row in a variety of different types of boats. Our club boathouse is on the riverside in the middle of Stratford-upon-Avon, opposite the Royal Shakespeare Company theatre.
The course is only open to adults. To meet the British Rowing adult category you must be beyond the academic year in which turned 18.
Cost £170. Please download course details and an application form.
Sorry, we are unable to offer a weekend or evening Learn to Row course this autumn.

On completion of the course
These courses are an introduction to the sport only and do not guarantee membership of the club. Once you’ve completed the course, we’ll discuss what the club has to offer that would be suitable for you. You can expect to take part in a novice group for at least 6-12 months, and there are opportunities to take part in fun regattas and events. We try to maintain a balanced membership of Juniors, Seniors and Masters members as well as recreational groups.
