Image: PhotoWe Can Row is a wellness and rehabilitation program for breast cancer survivors. The program is specifically designed to allow survivors to reorient themselves with their bodies, giving survivors a healthy expression of control and putting them in contact with other women of similar circumstances.

Goals of the WeCanRow Program

Help women recovering from breast cancer:
Develop healthy and strong bodies
Become active participants
in their own recovery
Assert control over their bodies
Rediscover the joy of movement
Contribute to a mutually empowering recovery team

WeCanRow begins where surgery and physical therapy end by providing physical exercise, self-image enhancement, group support and a team-building approach for women transitioning from being patients to survivors. It is conducted under the guidance of highly knowledgeable and experienced coaches and physical therapists. A key aspect of the success of the program is recognizing the integration between the survivor's mind, body and spirit and using this information to improve personal and athletic recovery and growth.

In addition to the Head of the Charles racing team, there are seven established WeCanRow Programs in operation WeCanRow - Boston (Newton, MA), WeCanRow -Spartan (Lansing, MI), Tri-State WeCanRow (Sharon, CT), WeCanRow Hudson Valley (Hudson Valley, New York), WeCanRow St. Louis, We Can Row DC (Washington, DC) and WeCanRow Hartford (Hartford,CT). If you are interested in sponsoring a WeCanRow program, please contact us for more information.

WeCanRow Boston
WeCanRow Boston runs throughout the year. From April through October, the program rows on the Charles River. During the winter months, the program rows in indoor tanks and on ergometers at Simmons College in Boston. Currently, the program practices on Tuesday evenings from 6:15 to 8:30 pm. In order to best accommodate new rowers, we organize start dates throughout the year for those joining the program for the first time. To join, please contact us at info@rowasone.org.

To learn more about any of the other programs, please email us and we will put you in touch with the local program.
