“Kirsty is the bomb!!!!

I wanted to start rowing, as a group of women were talking about their amazing rowing adventure with Kirsty. So, as well as the experience of being on the water and a little bit of wanting to push myself out of my comfort zone with a new sport/hobby, I went for it.

Kirsty and I chatted about my options of learning and what I wanted to get out of our sessions together. Every session has been incredibly memorable with clear step-by-step instructions. Kirsty has a passion for helping people learn and grow and this has giving me confidence to go for it.

Now on my fourth session, I love the feeling of rowing as my newfound hobby. Kirsty is incredibly knowledgeable, she has plenty of experience and her dynamic positive energy just makes you feel great. Perfect for anyone starting out like me encourage and help anyone starting out like me.”

“Thanks for so many brilliant and special moments on the water. This website is amazing. I believe many souls feel a whole lot better for it. Well done so far and all the best for 2021 and all those exciting plans/boats/experiences”

“Thank you Jane and Kirsty for making this possible. I am so happy I could cry! This experience has ‘taken me right back’ to rowing in my crew at Uni. I’m looking forward to trying the new boats; Glide Tides and Lite boats. Really enjoyed reading your blog/ website”

“Thank you Jane and Kirsty for introducing me to something new. I’ve really enjoyed learning the basics and have seen some amazing sunsets...very much looking forward to continuing next year.”

“Fabulous. Was lovely being part of the Santa Aqua Dash. Thank you both again for everything this year.”

“Thank you to Jane and Kirsty for all your incredible encouragement and coaching. Lovely to be part of the Santa Aqua Dash group.”

“I had a brilliant time. Thank you! The welcome was warm and the lessons were great, with a real feeling of safety being a priority. It’s great to be able to book online. It would be worth making a video to show just how much the boats can rock without capsizing!! I like the Instagram page and really like the blog - it gives a great sense of personality and enthusiasm! Thanks again for a great day. ”

“We really enjoyed meeting you both and rowing on Monday evening and will definitely be back!
We had a great time with Bob st Studland on Tuesday too and were very impressed with the Lite Boats.”

“Fabulous weekend of rowing, thank you both so much. The Sea Water Baths session was brilliant for the boys initiation and our sunset row was more than perfect, we are so blessed to have had that experience.”

“To say that accidentally discovering rowing has been a life changing revelation would be an understatement. A sport that keeps you super fit and do just for the joy of it has been fabulous during these tricky times. You leave the stress and anxiety on the shore for an hour or so and press the reset button. Thanks to the wonderful Jane and Kirsty at RA Ltd for making this possible. I cannot recommend this highly enough.”

“Thank you for your patience. It was awesome, I loved it. I’ll be booking my next two sessions asap.”

“We all had such a great time - thank you ”

“This is just perfect for people like me who absolutely love rowing but (whisper it), don’t have race ambitions. I’ve never been confident enough in a single scull to enjoy going off at my own pace either so was quite nervous going into the Try Exploring session. But these boats are completely stable and, together with Jane and Kirsty’s gentle coaching, give you chance to focus on technique, navigation or just the scenery without the fear factor of a river single. I can see how they’ll be perfect for all ages for learn to row too. That said, they really move when you want them to, so I can’t wait to get out for a more ambitious adventure soon. ”

“Loved the boat’s sensitivity but stability too. Seats were so comfortable. Perhaps that shouldn’t matter, but I’d be happy on that for hours! Loved the bright appealing colours. A gorgeous view as well!

An utterly amazing row. I smiled so much today. Let me know when I can book in all of my family.”

“Loved that I felt I had time to really think about my technique as it’s so stable. I wondered how it would compare with my experience in other coastal and river sculls and was surprised and pleased that is was so responsive to manoeuvre. ”

“OMG its amazing. I want one!
Thank you SOOOOOO much...I enjoyed it more than I can say. ”

“Boat was really easy to manoeuvre, even with the wind and tide. Keyhaven is a top spot! Very comfy too and robust. Brilliant!
..Let me know when I can book my kids in...”

“Felt really safe in the boats, even when hitting the odd buoy & sandbank! Not at all worried about tipping over - really confidence-giving! Look forward to trying all your venues.”

“I had the most magic time rowing again for the first time in 30 years!...
...I really, really loved it...amazing.
...Looking forward to going out again on an adventure...”

“Fab outing. Thank you so much...”

“What a gorgeous row. Thank you so so much.
I may even get my hubby in one...”
