Rowga: A Workshop for Rowers & Athletes
Friday, July 17, 4:30pm to 5:45pm
Led by Bob Van Twyver
Rowga is yoga designed with rowers and other athletes in mind, but its benefits extend far beyond the rowing community. This supportive practice complements any athlete’s cycle of training, competition, recovery, and rest.
Join our Rowga workshop for a chance to restore, rebalance, and reconnect with your body. Through yoga postures, mobility work, breathwork, and mindful movement, you’ll improve flexibility, build functional strength, support injury prevention, and promote better body symmetry.
Whether you’re training for competition, recovering from a demanding season, or simply looking for a thoughtful and sustainable movement practice, Rowga provides a refreshing approach that helps you move, feel, and perform at your best.
Cost: $19 per person / $16 for seniors / $14 for students
