Find your crew. Build your confidence.

Rowing is one of the few sports you can genuinely pick up as an adult and race for the rest of your life. Our adult program has room for the curious beginner and the returning competitor alike.

Adult rowing splits into two tracks. Learn-to-row sessions take you from the erg to the water over a few weeks, with coaching at every step. The masters program is for rowers who want to train and race — at regattas across Texas and beyond, in boats from singles to eights.

It is low-impact, deeply social, and quietly addictive. Most of our adult rowers came to it later in life and stayed for the people as much as the sport. Mornings on a still lake have a way of resetting everything that comes after them.

Whether you rowed in college twenty years ago or have never sat in a shell, there is a seat and a session that fits your schedule.

This is for you if:
