Rō Fitness Class Types
Cardio RōOur signature class. Short rowing intervals that pit you against your own stats.
|
Long and LōLower stroke rates and longer sets. The slower tempo brings a more meditative experience to flush out and get sweaty!
|
Sculpt and RōPart cardio Rō, part off-machine exercises. Rowing works over 80% of your muscles, and the off-machine exercises will hit up the rest.

The Benefits
The Details
The Machine
We use Concept2 Indoor Rowing machines -- only the best!
What to bring
What to wear
Indoor Goes Outdoor! (Downtown Location only)
We'll move the machines out on the balcony if the weather is nice! Dress accordingly! We have an 'opt outside' policy, so we'll be out there unless the rain is too significant or if temps drop below 38 degrees.
We have showers!
We expect you to work up a sweat. So we thought it was only fair that we offer shower access.
- Low Impact
Indoor rowing is easy on the joints and is often used as a cross-training option for runners with impact injuries. 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 biceps, chest, triceps, hamstrings, quads, glutes, calves, lats, upper and lower abs and erector spine (oh my!). 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!

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

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!

- Rō Tarrytown has one shower, but please be ready to speed-shower if there's a line!
