Venice. Now it is possible to learn rowing in the venetian style in english. The rowing school "giro vogando" in Venice offers the possibility to experience the way the gondolieri move their boats. It is possible to really learn it but this would need a lot of time. Therefore courses of two hours are offered for tourists that can be integrated easily in every trip to Venice. They give a first insight into how to row standing upright. In only one course it is not possible to become a perfect rower, but it is a very new and amazing experience and an important part of the Venetian culture will be experienced.To row standing upright is at the first moment a bit wobbly and to master the boat, the wind and the waves you will need to have a certain ability, concentration and at the same time you have to be relaxed. At the beginning it is not easy but some time after the introduction it is possible to master the basic movements and to enjoy it rowing together. And soon it will be an unforgettable sensation: under the large sky it is like walking on the water. Birds fly overhead, fishes jump up out of the water and in shallow waters you can even see mussels and crabs.
Rowingboats all over the world are rowed normaly in a sitting position because this is easier. The venetians are rowing standing upright because only in this way it is possible to row in narrow chanels. In the lagoon this technique allows to see where shallow waters and where fishes are. Moving a rowingboat standing upright it is possible to understand the problems and the advantages of this technique and to understand how this important city had been supplied by these boats for over thousand years.
