Rowing is a unique sport and that is a significant part of its appeal. Imagine gliding across the water during your workout instead of sweating in a smelly gym. People who try it, find it downright addicting!
If you’ve wanted to get into athletics, but haven’t found your niche in traditional sports, you owe it to yourself to try rowing with North Cascades Crew.
Q: Why North Cascades Crew?
A: Fitness!
Rowing is a full body workout. It builds great core strength, lower body strength, and upper body strength. It builds endurance and lung capacity. It is low impact. It is an ideal sport to maintain fitness and cross-train for other sports. We offer sessions year round, so no matter what other sports you pursue, you can come back to rowing to stay fit and strong.
If you’ve used rowing machines at the gym, you know how good the workout is. What you don’t know is how much better it gets when you include the balance and concentration that comes with rowing in a rowing shell on the water.
Q: Why North Cascades Crew?
A: Satisfaction!
Rowing is equal parts power and technique, so you see improvement every week, every month, and every season as you experience the feel of the boat, oar handling, and teamwork. You go faster as you get stronger, and you go faster as you get smarter. Fine tuning a boat full of rowers to work together and achieve together is immensely satisfying.
Q: Why North Cascades Crew?
A: Camaraderie!
Rowers are fun people – there is no way around it. They revel in the uniqueness of their sport and enjoy cooperating as they compete in the spirit of good sportsmanship. We have fun together and you’ll gain a real sense of community with the club.
Q: Why North Cascades Crew?
A: Competition!
Rowers from North Cascades Crew compete in local, regional, and national championships. You have the opportunity to work your way into competitive practices and compete in local and national regattas.
Q: Why North Cascades Crew?
A: It’s beautiful!
We row on beautiful Lake Stevens and no matter the weather it feels great to be outside in the fresh air, gliding across the lake. Imagine working out while watching the sunrise or morning mist rising off the lake, seeing eagles fly, and the water sparkle. It is a magical experience.
