ERG ED® Brings Rowing into the Classroom

Curriculum: The ERG ED®:Rowing in the Classroom curriculum is a nationally recognized and SHAPE aligned Physical Education unit that offers easy implementation and integration for teachers, schools, and administrators.

Teacher Training: Built around a “train the trainer” model, ERG ED® provides PE teachers with everything they need to bring a high quality and fun experience to their students during the school day.

Equipment: With just 20 rowing machines, you can bring this program to thousands of students each year within your community.

Community: From field trips to local boathouses, to nationwide competition, the ERG ED® Community provides exciting, enriching, and life-changing opportunities for all students!

ERG ED® launched in 2010 in three Seattle Middle Schools. By 2014, ERG ED® was an integrated part of the standard physical education curriculum for all Seattle Public School students in Middle and K-8 schools.

Through partnerships with school districts and boathouses across the country, the ERG ED® program is leading a large-scale, systemic change in how young people access the sport of rowing.

Today, ERG ED® serves an estimated 55,000 students annually across the United States.

The goal of ERG ED® is to introduce the sport of rowing to all young people and to create viable pathways for students to continue rowing.
