Philosophy: Everyone learns to row in a small boat first. Single shell, two oars each. The Academy teaches a solid foundation in theory, rigging, skills, and finally, race strategy. Sculling develops the muscles of rowing equally, which is ideal. Once our athletes progress to a racing single, team boats are assigned. The RRA athletes are expected to have a higher level of responsibility and accountability. Each athlete receives individual attention and goals are personalized.
