OLYMPIC AND COASTAL ROWING CLASSES FOR CHILDREN & ADULTS

WORK YOUR BODY AND MIND. BECOME A ROWER.

Rowing is the sport in which athletes are moving a boat on the water using oars. Its origins go all the way back to Ancient Egypt. Rowing is the only sport in which the athletes cross the finish line going backwards! It's a very unique and beautiful sport, practiced on flat water in rivers and lakes. In Cyprus, we practice rowing at the water dams around Limassol and in the sea (when it's flat) which is the sport known as Coastal Rowing.

The Limassol Nautical Club offers sessions for both inexperienced and experienced athletes, both groups having the choice to follow the recreational/fun program or the Elite.

Our competitive team is one of the best on the island, with athletes from 8+ years old. We take pride in our sport, as it is considered to be the 2nd toughest sport after cross-country skiing. We train 4-7 times a week depending on age and personal goals.

How is Coastal Rowing different?

Coastal Rowing is the extreme version of Flat water Rowing! It is more adventurous and fascinating because the athlete has to row in rough waters and extreme conditions that can only be found at sea. The calmness offered by the feel of the water makes the sport very unique.

Coastal Rowing is easy to learn because of the good stability of the boats. There are 4 boat classes the single, double, coxed quadruple and mix double and is a World Event. Classes are for adults and the training is 5 times per week. Training combines both water sessions and gym classes.

Who is it for?

Rowing is for everyone! The only requirement is knowledge of swimming or at least the ability to float comfortably in the deep without the use of inflatables. We accept children of 10+ years old, as well as young adults who want to give rowing a try.

Coastal Rowing can be practiced both for general fitness but also for elite performance. Everyone is welcome to join can join; our classes have adults from 18 years to 70 years old.

Why this sport?

If you want to improve your physical, psychological and mental health, rowing is the answer! Its balanced, repetitive movement is almost like meditation. When the body moves in harmony in the boat, the athlete's psyche and mind is in peace.

It's a great sport to help improve your stamina and strength, as well as mobility and posture.

Rowing also cultivates team spirit, self-discipline and cooperation!

In addition to the above, Coastal Rowing has the added benefits of working out in the sea. Clean air, salt water, the scent of the sea they all do their bit to keep us healthy!
