Alexandria, VA – Have you ever watched as crew teams glide across the water in their boats, each rower in sync? The camaraderie that is so integral to the sport of rowing is what fosters the workouts at the nation’s leading rowing concept, Row House.
Don’t be intimidated by the idea of a workout centered on a row machine! “I was not very athletic and would be intimidated in the group fitness class, but Row House is a great workout to bring people together,” said Fahad Qureshi, owner of Alexandria’s only Row House location. “People of all fitness levels can find Row House beneficial and we can’t wait to introduce this concept to Northern Virginia residents.”
Seeing the lack of rowing concepts in the area, the Qureshis tried Row House and quickly found how inclusive and non-intimidating the workout was. Wanting to bring this concept to their neighbors in Alexandria, Row House Old Town Alexandria is the first of its kind in Northern Virginia.
Utilizing 85 percent of the body’s muscles, rowing maximizes calorie burn, activates the core, strengthens and lengthens the body and ultimately improves posture. Row house gives members an alternative fitness regimen that focuses on the safety and longevity of their bodies. With six class offerings – House, Body, Power, Restore, Full Row, and LAUNCH – there is a class to accommodate all fitness levels.
