Rowing Instructors

Picture
Nelsie Aybar-Grau:  Nelsie lives steps away from the Rondout Creek and is a spokesperson for the benefits of rowing.  Nelsie had no rowing experience before a friend asked her to photograph the Rondout Creek and the rowers in the Rondout Rowing Club. That experience led her to a passionate pursuit of this form of exercise and adventure. At age 60, she began rowing, and since then Nelsie became a certified coach, instructor, and president of the rowing club from 2014 to 2017. On her own time, she gives private sculling instruction on single sliding seat training boats and provides guided tours of the Rondout Creek and the Hudson River.​ ​You can learn more about Nelsie on her Facebook page The Rondout Rower, or her website www.therondoutrower.com.
