Learn to Row
Discover the joy of rowing with Swan River Rowing Club
Our Learn to Row program is the perfect introduction to this dynamic sport, whether its your finst time in a boat, or you just want to have a go.
Private Lessons – Sculling
We offer flexible one-on-one lessons in a single scull with our experienced coaches, Bruce Strickland and David Butt.
- Introductory package: 4 sessions for $165 (plus $10 Rowing WA fee)
These sessions provide a personalised approach, focusing on balance, technique, and water confidence at a pace that suits you.
Group Courses – Sweep Rowing
From time to time we run 4-week group courses in sweep rowing, using an eight-person boat (8+). These courses are a great way to experience the teamwork and camaraderie of rowing in a crew. In addition, the annual Corporate Challenge is a great way for you and a group of colleagues to learn to row in a compressed time frame, with the added fun and excitement of a racing regatta at its conclusion. Key elements of the courses:
- Suitable for complete beginners
- Learn the basics of boat handling, timing, and power on the water
- Enjoy the fun and social connection of learning with others
