ADULT ROWING
In rowing, adults are known as masters. Rowing requires a certain level of physical fitness, coordination, and time investment to be a satisfying endeavor, but once mastered it is very rewarding. We hope that you will join us this year and be a part of our growing community of adult rowers and paddlers.
LEARN TO ROWS AND PRIVATE LESSONS
Learn to Row Learn! This class is designed to introduce those who are completely new to the sport to the essentials of sculling, including water safety, stroke mechanics, and blade work. This class will be taught by Jessi Hooper (former varsity rower and SMU coach) and Luis Prado (former Mexican National Team Member and international competitor). This 2-day class will be offered the weekend of June 13 & 14, 7-9 AM and again on July 11-12, 7-9 AM. Cost: $75 each weekend

Two class levels are offered: Level 1 to accommodate new rowers who have just completed the learn-to-row class (or who never raced competitively), and Level 2 for technically proficient rowers with competition experience. The class will be taught by Jessi Hooper (former varsity rower and SMU coach) and Luis Prado (former Mexican National Team Member and international competitor). This class will meet for 8 Wednesdays starting on June 10th, from 6:30-8 AM. Cost: $180
