Coach indoor rowing with confidence

Row Nation helps people get fitter and healthier through indoor rowing. If you coach clients or groups, the next step is simple: coach it well, coach it safely, and coach it in a way that creates repeatable progress.

Rowing Australia’s Indoor Rowing Trainer Course is now live. It’s designed for trainers and coaches who want the knowledge, cues, and session structure to confidently deliver indoor rowing across all abilities.

What you’ll learn

• Technique that holds up under effort: set-up, sequencing, rhythm, and the key cues that land fast
• How to coach all abilities: simple regressions and progressions for beginners through to performance-focused clients
• Common faults and quick fixes: what to look for, what to say, and what to change
• How to structure sessions: pace, rate, and progression so people improve without burning out
