Predicted to be the new ‘go-to’ workout in 2018 by The Associated Press, indoor rowing has the extensive market potential not yet explored. Established in New York City in 2014, Row House was born from the idea that rowing is simply the most efficient, low-impact, high-energy, full-body workout for any fitness level that unites, inspires and drives people to dig a little deeper.
