About WaterCoach

WaterCoach Professional is aimed at fitness professionals or those with a basic knowledge of sports science who want to increase their understanding of the sport of rowing. 

This course covers the technical and physiological aspects of rowing, and shares the training methodology used by rowers. Our hope is that with increased knowledge you, the instructor, will be able to offer a higher level of advice to users of rowing machines (either in gyms or at home) on how best to realise the unrivalled physical benefits of rowing.

WaterCoach Professional is divided into 2 levels, Level I and Level II.

Level I - this is an online introductory theoretical course. It covers various aspects of rowing and is a prerequisite for Level II. This online course offers 0.4 American Council on Exercise (ACE) credits upon completion.

Level II - is a half day face to face practical course drawing on the knowledge gained from Level I.

Please note WaterCoach Professional is focused more on one-on-one personal instruction and is seen as a stepping stone to becoming a group rowing instructor.  WaterCoach Professional does not qualify you to become a group rowing instructor.
