For students (13 years and over) and adults new to the sport. Space is limited so sign up early! 500 meter splits, strokes per minute, Power-lO's and leg drive will all be part of the new rowing jargon you learn as part of this class. You will not be required to row a 2,000-meter test piece, but will learn how to:

• Adjust the ergometer ("erg") properly before rowing


• Row with proper technique so you don't injure yourself


• Apply power most effectively

Test your conditioning, design workouts and train to meet fitness goals You'll understand that dipping your hands, shooting your slide or opening your back early is not desirable; You'll learn that suspending your body weight on the end of the erg is. Classes will be led by New Trier High School rowing coaches. Wear tighter-fitting shorts (biker style) and aT-shirt. Bring a water bottle. Students must register prior to attending. No refunds.
