Why
Even the very best athletes know that coaching is vital. Tiger Woods, Sir Steve Redgrave, Pete Sampras all use coaches to get one step ahead.
Words and pictures can take you so far, but to really master a skill there is no substitute for being shown, face to face, in person.
How many
One is better than none!
You could simply do a one-off session to learn the basics and leave it at that. You'll already be one step ahead.
Mind you, as your technique improves you'll feel a real sense of achievement. Many people like to practice what they have learned in one session and come back to build on it later.
You'll find that the exercise becomes more rewarding - not to mention that it gives you something else to concetrate on while rowing.
