Faster Masters Rowing Reviews

The singles intensive course was well run, with a variety of drills taught to help improve sculling technique. The lessons were well paced with teaching points broken down into easily understood chunks of information. Great feedback was given and I am confident now that I know how to work on improving my sculling. Thanks Rebecca.

Thanks Amanda it was great fun to get to work together. Do review the handouts every couple of months, I find it's easy to forget what you once knew!

Rebecca's sculling camp was very worthwhile. She has a very good understanding of the nuances of rowing and explains this very well. She is organised and decisive. She challenged us without overwhelming and all with cheerful, enthusiasm. Highly recommend her coaching sessions to any masters who want to improve their rowing technique.

Michelle, thanks for this. I appreciate the honest appraisal. Finding the right balance between challenge and discomfort is not straightforward. Keep up your diligent practice.

I have just completed the single sculling camp and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Rebecca has a knack of breaking down technical elements into easy-to-understand steps, while still keeping it casual and light. I would do this course in a heartbeat; there is always something to improve on!

Thank you for being such an attentive student and for writing this. I was impressed that you are “game” to try whatever I suggested before judgement.

Rebecca runs a remarkably effective singles rowing course. She clearly translates her extensive knowledge about the rowing technique into results on the water. I appreciated her approachable and encouraging manner. She is an inspiration and I would highly recommend grabbing the opportunity to be coached by her.

That's interesting about "timing". I agree it is often aligns with something you might have been thinking about (because that's how I choose the topics!). Regards Rebecca
