FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
I have many commitments, can I still join the course?
Absolutely! The course is designed to fit a busy schedule. You can choose from over 7 sessions per week and only need to attend two to get what you need out of it.
What kind of people have joined the course, and will I fit in?
We’ve had all kinds of people join the course! Some train hard and are looking for a new challenge, while others haven’t exercised much lately and want to get back into it. We also have participants of all ages, from 18 to 70 – so no matter your level or age, you’ll fit right in.
What should I wear?
Nothing special! Regular workout clothes work just fine, tights, shorts, or training pants along with a fitted top.
How safe is it?
Very safe! Rowing is one of the safer sports you can do, and we take safety seriously every time you’re on the water. You’ll be supported by multiple coaches, both in motorboats alongside you and with guidance from the team, so you’re never on your own. Life jackets are always available if you’d like to use one.
With strong supervision on the water, we make sure everyone has fun while staying safe. We’re also proud to say we’ve had zero incidents throughout all of our Learn to Row programs.
What do you do if it rains?
If the weather's too rough for rowing on the water, we move indoors! We have fun indoor sessions where kids will learn technique on the rowing machines (ergometers), do fitness circuits, and play team-building games.
What happens after the course?
By the end of the program, you’ll have met new people, learned the basics of rowing, and built confidence. You’ll also know if it’s something you want to continue. Usually, about 60% of participants go on to join one of our programs.
Do I need to do anything else before I get started?
No. Once you’ve completed your payment and gained access to the Heja app, please make sure to fill out the forms and waivers there before the program starts.
After that, you’re all set. If you run into any issues, our coaches will be happy to help once the program begins.
