I stumbled upon Power Rowing through ClassPass, and was immediately hooked. I thought I was in good shape before coming here, but Bryan challenges and pushes me every class. He is a patient, talented coach and has helped me discover a love for rowing. His kindness and energy are unmatched, and he truly has created such a wonderful, welcoming community!

Love Power Rowing! Bryan is a great teacher...enthusiastic, clear, motivating and fun. Beccas class is also dynamic and fast-paced. The space has a nice feel to it. Super welcoming to all people of all skill levels. Highly recommend it!

For someone who never really exercised before trying out Power Rowing, this has been such a great find! Bryan is an awesome instructor, and everyone in the studio is very nice and encouraging. I actually look forward to waking up early on the weekends now... it feels nice to knock out a workout first thing in the morning. Ive tried both the intro to rowing class, as well as suspension and strength, and its nice to be able to mix things up. Im hoping to stay with Power Rowing for a while.

First time trying out rowing and had a fantastic experience at Power Rowing! Had my first few classes with Bryan and he gave the perfect amount of guidance on form/technique and encouragement. Also took two other classes with the other instructors who are really great as well. I love the format of the classes, where you start slow and ramp it up, and alternate between rowing on the erg and exercises off it. Would definitely recommend!

Power Rowing is an amazing community! I always walk out feeling like I had great workout. Even if you are new to rowing, do not worry. The instructors are super helpful and walk you through the correct form each session. There are a variety of classes offered so its easy to keep things interesting by switching up your routine class every once in a while. I love this gym!

Amazing studio!! I felt incredibly welcomed as a new student, with multiple instructors taking extra time before class to show me the ropes. Excellent instructors who push you to challenge yourself while keeping the class fun and engaging. Love the variety of classes offered!

I’m brand new to rowing, but the Power Rowing studio has been awesome so far! It’s a great whole body workout and really fun! The instructor Bryan is welcoming and knowledgeable about what he’s doing. He’s a great coach and is always motivating and pushing you to do your best. Very friendly atmosphere! I’ll certainly be back for more! :)

Power rowing is an amazing, supportive community of people and instructors that work hard and have fun. Workouts are structured to be tailored to each individual and are always a great challenge. I have never before stuck with a workout membership but Power Rowing finally sealed the deal. Expect clear instruction, motivation, and lots of hard work.

I really enjoy Power Rowing. Bryan has a lot of passion and enthusiasm for his sport and it reflects in the high energy and fun vibes in the studio. A great way to spend an enjoyable 45 minutes getting stronger!

Neat facility. Bryan (the owner and instructor) loves his job. As a newbie, I felt like I was given just the right amount of help and oversight. Power Rowing is a great resource, especially if you live nearby. 👍

The classes and teachers at this studio are excellent. The open level workouts are structured, challenging, and they can be adjusted to your pace and fitness level. The space is clean and feels airy (one wall has windows that face Harvard ave). Really enjoying coming here and looking forward to returning!

Incredible full body workouts! I love Rebeccas classes. People are friendly and fun. Everyone works at their own pace so its even great for beginners like me. Thanks!

Review №14

This class has been a game changer for me. Im surprised how much I love rowing! Typically I like to run or take long walks with my dogs, but this is a great break from monotony of these exercises. Its an excellent workout with really awesome instructors who make you want to push yourself while having fun! Also, having ab work, TRX, weights, etc. incorporated in different classes prevents that monotony from creeping up again!

I have taken several classes here over past couple of months. The small classes and individual attention from instructors keep me focused and engaged. Its a great low-impact workout. Highly recommend it!

I came to Power Rowing with absolutely no rowing experience and immediately felt at ease when I walked through the door. Bryan, and all the instructors, really make an effort to get to know each person that comes in for class. They encourage everyone along the way to get the best and toughest workout they can but always know when to let you do your own thing. The workouts are a combo of mat exercises and intervals on the erg, which makes for a well-rounded workout where I feel all my muscles are engaged. I cant recommend this place enough!

Re
Review №17

PR exceeded all my expectations. Im not athletic, but from the start, the instructor put me at ease. Bryan explained things, didnt mind repeating things for the n-th time, cheered us on, checked on us, encouraged us, engaged us in conversation, joked with us, and always fulfilled his promise to give us a work out. He was sensitive, knowing when to push us and when to pull back. In fact, even though we always met as a group, he knew each of our levels and capacities so well that I always felt like I was receiving the individual attention I needed. In just two weeks, I can feel the difference, in my muscles, posture, and overall energy level. I cant wait to get back from my summer vacation to resume.

Power Rowing is a terrific workout that offers great results. Ive been to about 5 classes and Im hooked. If youve never rowed before, do not worry. The instructors make you feel very comfortable with the equipment before you start a class so you wont feel left behind or intimidated once the class begins. I really suggest starting with one of Bryans classes. He is great at offering feedback and making the space comfortable for everyone. Plus, his sense of humor makes the workout a lot more enjoyable.

Power Rowing is a great time, and an even better workout. Bryan is an absolute pleasure to learn from, and he really excels at motivating each person based on her individual skill level. I left feeling determined and accomplished. This is my 5th class, and I definitely have felt stronger with each time. I also feel inspired by the charity rows put on by the studio. Kudos to Bryan, and highly recommended!!

Im a beginner to rowing but ever since joining this studio, my strength has gone up along with my confidence. Bryan and the crew (pun intended) are really friendly and supportive. They have made my wife and I feel very welcomed. They offer a bunch of different classes for every skill level and make you feel very comfortable. Thanks Bryan!

Power Rowing brings me right back to my days of high school crew. The workouts are so efficient. Bryan does an incredible job of laying the foundation, leaving it up to you to make the workout as challenging as you want it to be. He has a knack for teaching proper form while pushing you a little further than you thought you could go. This is a great studio.Give it a shot and you’ll likely get hooked too!

Excellent workout facility with great instructors and owner. Everything is kept in immaculately clean condition and the rowing machines are top notch. The workouts themselves have the perfect combination of technique, physical challenge and fun. The instructors make sure that you reach your maximum potential without being overbearing. Overall Id highly recommend giving it a go!

Great classes! Bryan is tremendous. I am an old guy who hasnt been to the gym in a very long time and I picked it up quickly. Now, Im going every morning.The classes are great for all fitness levels. Dont put it off, its easy to start. PowerRowing offers a free intro class and a two week special for $30.Now, I just need to find out more about their senior discount! :)

As a former football player with creaky knees, I was looking for a great workout that put minimal tension on my joints. I found that workout at Power Rowing. Bryan and the rest of the staff do a great job of switching up the workouts to keep things interesting and challenging each member to get the most out of their workout in a friendly, non-intimidating manner. I highly recommend giving Power Rowing a shot.

I started going here because of a great deal on an unlimited three week trial and I am hooked! Bryan (the owner), all of the instructors, and other members have gone out of their way to get to know me and welcome me to Power Rowing.

Power Rowing is an awesome workout. Brian and his team incredibly welcoming and helpful regardless of your previous experience of being on a rower. Also, they are really generous! Power Rowing gives back to the local community through Charity Rows and other programs.

I’ve been to power rowing five times now and I absolutely love the class. Bryan was so welcoming to me—I had never rowed before and now I feel like my form has improved so much! Definitely a good class for beginners who want to learn to row correctly.

So far, Ive been to five entry level classes (all with Bryan, the owner). Its challenging, but Bryans enthusiasm makes you feel like you can do more than you thought you could when you walked in. Hes attentive, encouraging, friendly and responsive. Also, the studio is clean and well-organized, with a cool set-up (wood floors, flat screen TVs, large windows). For people looking for a tough but low-impact workout, I couldnt recommend this place more highly.

Power Rowing has been a great place to learn how to use an erg and get a full body workout! It’s a really supportive environment and I defiantly get way more of a workout there then if I just work out by myself.

What a great experience! Power Rower offers fantastic workouts that can be tailored to any fitness level in a fun, inclusive, community environment. And as a bonus, the owner, Bryan, is exactly the kind of small business owner you want to support— skilled, knowledgeable, kind, and a US Veteran. Can’t say enough good things about this place!

I first checked out this studio through ClassPass and instantly liked it. Its a fantastic, efficient workout unlike any other in a studio Ive tried. The instructors really try to get to know you, even if youre new, and its a challenging, fun workout. Ive had knee and ankle problems in the past, affecting my ability to do other activities, but the workout is designed to avoid many of these issues. Definitely check it out!

Look, I know, there are many classes and gyms, but this place is special. Bryan, Rebecca, and the whole team are kind, supportive, and beyond friendly. Likewise, this place has a real community spirit bolstered by the staff and their events and charity work, but truly created by the wonderful people who go here. Did I mention rowing is also an amazing workout? Real truth here, Ive always been more of a runner, and never on a crew team, but easily the best workouts Ive had have been with the lovely crew at Power Rowing.

Review №38

Ive been to this studio more than 10 times and every single class has been really fun, and tough! I had zero rowing experience when I walked into the studio and Bryan was very friendly and an awesome teacher, so it was easy to get the hang of it even on the first day. The studio is nice and clean, everyone is supportive, and the workouts themselves are addictive and really make you push yourself without being too intimidating. Theres a mix of all ages, genders and fitness levels represented among the people in these classes. Highly recommend to anyone.

I love the Rowing & Abs class with Bryan and the Suspension & Rowing class with Rebecca - both instructors are very attentive and provide so much helpful feedback on form. The classes are challenging without being intimidating. There is a mix of fitness levels and everyone is supportive and welcoming. After only a month, I can feel my body getting stronger. Every time I start my day at Power Rowing, I feel great for the rest of the day.

Very impressed with this rowing studio! Bryan is great fun, motivating, and loves teaching. I’m not a fitness guru, so I appreciate this is a full body workout that’s so fun I kept coming back for more.

Review №46

I am a fitness instructor, so I usually get paid to exercise. It has to be a really great class for me to be willing to pay....and Power Rowing classes definitely qualify. This morning for example I took a class led by a woman training for the 2020 Olympics -- first, rowing with her makes me feel like a hero, and second, she gave me lots of great technique tips. Running in the winter sucks. This is a fabulous way to keep up -- and I promise you even to improve -- your cardio conditioning. The owner of the business is a great guy, and I promise after you try out the studio you will also be motivated to help his small locally-owned business succeed.

Power Rowing is a great local studio in Brookline! All of the instructors are incredibly friendly and helpful. Even though I had no prior experience rowing, I found it easy enough to pick up and learn. The classes are dynamic; you switch back and forth between rowing and other forms of exercise, like lifting weights and doing ab work. I would highly recommend this studio to anyone who is looking for a new and fun way to exercise.

I joined Power Rowing 2 months ago and have attended 35 classes in that time. I’ve never been motivated to attend so many classes and stuck with a workout regimen, but the workout and communal atmosphere here is amazing. On average 8-10 classes a day so it can fit in any schedule. And it’s the best low impact workout I’ve ever done.

As a runner with a bum knee, I was desperate to find something that would give me the same workout and the same charge that a good run does. Id never enjoyed working out on the ergometer before, but joined PowerRowing on the recommendation of a friend, and am a total convert! The teachers are wonderful, the workout is tough but fun and the people--staff and other members--are really nice and welcoming. This is a low impact, high intensity workout that is especially good for those of us who have used their knees too much for many years. And, man, am I buff!
