The Details

Class Styles
Cardio Rõ - Our signature 55min interval all-rowing workout suited for all fitness levels. Available in "Express" 45min class as well. 

Sculpt - This part rowing, part off-machine exercises. Rowing works over 80% of your muscles, and the off-machine exercises will hit up the other muscles, in between sets! 

INTRō - It's Rowing 101. Our instructors have a deep understanding of injury preventative technique and we'll share it with you in this class. This is the best class if you've never been on a rowing machine or you are injury prone! But expect to work up a sweat!

Sunrise/Sunset Rō - This is our notable, Instagram-worthy CARDIO Rō located at our Downtown studio, that's moved out on the shaded balcony when temperatures are between 50º and 95º and there are no rain chances. 

The Machine
We use Concept2 Indoor Rowing machines -- only the best! 

What to bring
Large water bottle (you're gonna sweat)
Towel 

What to wear
Athletic shoes and socks
Fitted clothing (baggy shorts or long shirt will get caught in the wheels of the seat during the workout)
Layers (if it's cold), 'cause rowing magically warms the world up around you and somehow the sweat pours whether it's cold or hot outside!

Indoor Goes Outdoor! (Downtown Location only)
We'll move the machines out on the balcony if the weather is nice! Generally we will be on the balcony if the temps are between 50º and 85º, give or take a few degrees and depending on humidity. If there's a chance of rain, we're indoors! 

We have showers! 
We expect you to work up a sweat. So we thought it was only fair that we offer shower access.

• Rō Downtown has 10 showers, but requires a key to enter! Just tell an instructor after class and we'll give you a shower key!
• Rō Tarrytown has one shower, but please be ready to speed-shower if there's a line! 

One Machine -- HUGE Benefits!

Low Impact
Want an excellent cardio workout without hitting the pavement? The indoor rowing workout is easy on the joints and is often used as a rehabilitative/cross training option for runners with impact injuries such as shin splints. Additionally, the low impact quality of indoor rowing allows for rowers of all ages to participate in the workouts (no one younger than 16 though, sorry young pups!). 

Improve the Muscles that Matter
In one rowing stroke, you engage your legs, abdominals, back, and arms -- and those are general terms. Specifically, biceps, chest, triceps, hamstrings, quads, glutes, calves, lats, upper and lower abs and erector spine (back). Working these muscles not only tones up the body, but it works to help improve your overall posture. This is functional fitness at its finest. 

High Calorie Burn
Rowing combines strength training and cardio, making it one of the best ways to burn some cals! Double that with the interval based workouts Rō Fitness provides, the calorie burn can be up to 800 calories per class!
