Welcome to Rowing P.E.I.

    
Thanks to everyone who was part of the first ever Indoor Rowing Day in Canada – Coast to Coast 2020 on Saturday February 22, 2020!

Here on P.E.I., we had 50 participants and rowed more than 200 kilometres in 3 hours. We can’t wait to do it again in 2021!

Learn to Row 2020

We are taking names now for Learn to Row 2020.    Please email rowingpei@gmail.com to save a spot! Space is limited. We start May 3rd, 2020 so get in touch soon if you are interested.

We are having an Open House and Registration event on Saturday April 25, 2020 between 10 a.m. and noon at Synergy Fitness. Drop by for a free lesson on the indoor rowing machine and find out more about our 2020 programs.

Here’s a brochure we’ve created to tell you more about Rowing PEI!

Rowing is a great outdoor sport with fantastic scenery.  And it is considered one of the best workouts around!

“When we said full-body we weren’t kidding. There’s just no comparison to cardio exercise that only involves the lower body, such as biking, the elliptical machine, or running on a treadmill. This is a calorie-killing, efficient workout.”

Read more about the benefits of rowing:

If you are goal-oriented, there is also the opportunity for all ages to compete. We will have coached sessions to prepare crews for the Nova Scotia Sprints in mid-July 2020.

We will also host the Red Island Regatta at Brudenell, P.E.I. on Saturday August 22 and August 23, 2020.

Our coastal boats are made especially for the wind and wave conditions on the Harbour. We row out of the Charlottetown Yacht Club from May to October.

Cost of Learn to Row is $150

Learn to Row is your entry point to the wonderful sport of rowing! Whether you’re looking for a low impact, full body workout, a way to get out on the water, a chance to meet some great people or a combination, it all starts here.

No experience with water sports is needed and it is a great substitute for exercise after being in the gym all winter.
