Why do we row?

Because it can reduce the risk of cancer recurrence.

AND BECAUSE WE CAN!

 150 minutes of weekly exercise can reduce cancer recurrence risk! 

 

Located in New Orleans, LA, the Survivor Rowing Club offers breast cancer survivors a supportive community with the opportunity to reduce cancer recurrence risk while learning the art of rowing. Join us in our mission to provide camaraderie, friendship and fitness on the journey of recovery and empowerment.
