Adaptive rowing is a category of rowing and racing for individuals with physical and intellectual disabilities. Basic techniques of adaptive rowing are the same as those for able-bodied rowers, with modifications made to equipment, coaching technique, and program structure.
Today, adaptive rowing opportunities are skyrocketing across the United States and around the world.
