Our intensive in Avis, Portugal will run five days, with nine water sessions, and a nightly motivational talk led by our team. To make sure that you have an ideal setting to grow and develop we work in small groups, with a maximum of 10 athletes per intensive. Each water session will give you the opportunity to row where the top teams in the world train.
