Rowing. It’s fluid.

And so is fitting in training sessions around a busy schedule. That’s why our coaching options can be structured 1:1, in groups, on or off the water, in person or online. But always with a highly qualified and experienced instructor.

On-Water Coaching

Progress from Erg to River

Su is a qualified Level 2 British Rowing on-water coach and has coached many squads and individuals from Juniors, and Learn-to-Row courses, to experienced Seniors.

Having rowed competitively, and recreationally herself, Su can support you in whatever your rowing goals may be.

Indoor Rowing Tank

Hone technique in a controlled environment

Have you had some coaching on the erg but not sure if you’re ready to commit to on-water rowing? Join in a Fluid Fitness Indoor rowing tank session to learn oar handling and more water-specific skills with the benefit of a stable (and dry!) platform.

Classes are run ad hoc, subject to demand. They are a great pre-cursor to “Learn to Row” courses, or for more advanced rowers, to hone technique. Sculling and sweep rowing sessions are possible.
Location: Molesey Boat Club

  • “Susan's classes are a great way to improve your technique on an erg, and, because you can go at your own pace, it doesn't matter if you a beginner or Sir Steve Redgrave, it's up to you what you want to put in and get out of it. Easy to join in any time.

    I think it's great the range of ages that attend the class, so inclusive, and focus on technique means you stop focusing on those times and personal bests and just sink into it. You notice then that the times come after that without chasing them. Ironically, i think rowing is a great way to switch off and relax. “

  • “I have always been very active enjoying over the years a variety of physical activities playing football at a professional club, squash, and cycling. But as the years progressed I needed something that provided a whole body exercise. 18 months ago I found indoor rowing fitted the bill. However, with ageing limbs I needed to row correctly not as experienced in a gym.
    Susan introduced me to the correct technique but more importantly her classes are tailored to meet the aspirations of each individual in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.”

  • “I’ve been doing Susan’s Fluid Fitness classes for nearly a year and did rowing for a year before lockdown. Susan is a natural instructor who has the knack of making you feel at ease while pushing you to your personal best without you noticing!

    I always look forward to going to her sessions.The park classes are good mix of floor, standing and moving exercises. The whole body is targeted. The rowing classes are a great workout and really worked my abdominal muscles.I feel much better and fitter when I am able to do her classes.”

  • “Susan is a brilliant trainer, she has the right balance of toughness and enthusiasm and has really motivated me in the achievement of my fitness goals. Her sessions are adaptable to your individual fitness levels and I’m always devastated if I have to miss one of them.

    I’d highly recommend her – much better value for money than going to the gym.”

  • “I have been going to Fluid Fitness’ indoor rowing class at Kingston Rowing club for a while now and I absolutely love. Susan is a great instructor and I have finally discovered an exercise that I actually like.

    I would highly recommend this class to anyone.”
