Memberships & passes<\/h2>
What is a Red Shedder Membership?<\/summary>

One membership for the whole shed. Your tier gives you a weekly allowance of sessions to use across rowing, the gym and recovery, in any mix, plus automatic Red Shedder benefits like complimentary Resets and member events. Tiers are Recovery $45, Bronze $55, Silver $69, Gold $99 and Platinum $119 per week, with a 12-week minimum term.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

What is the Starter Pack?<\/summary>

The Starter Pack is 3 sessions for $30, valid 30 days, across rowing, gym or recovery. It’s a taste of Red Shedder membership life, not a program.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Do I have to hold a membership to visit?<\/summary>

No. Casual visits and 10-packs are available, and Easy Oar, Resets and community events are open to everyone. See casual visits & 10-packs<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Is there a BMRC option?<\/summary>

Yes. If you row competitively, Black Mountain Rowing Club (BMRC) operates at Red Shed. A BMRC Partner option connects club membership with facility access. Ask us<\/a> and we’ll point you the right way.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Can I get a membership refund?<\/summary>

Refunds and cancellations follow our published terms and conditions. See Terms & Conditions or ask us at info@redshed.org.au<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Booking & sessions<\/h2>
How do I book?<\/summary>

Everything is booked through Mindbody, including rowing, gym and recovery sessions and our programs. Set yourself up once and book whatever suits your week.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

How do I book a rowing session on the Starter Pack?<\/summary>

Rowing on the Starter Pack requires prior rowing experience or a completed Learn to Row. If you’re brand new to rowing, start with Learn to Row<\/a> first.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

I’m not a rower. Can I still join?<\/summary>

Absolutely. Plenty of Red Shedders come for the gym, recovery and community and never pick up an oar, and Learn to Row runs all year if you’d like to try.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Facility & hours<\/h2>
What are the opening hours?<\/summary>

The Red Shed facility is open to Red Shedders 5am to 8pm daily. Rowing and gym sessions run per the Mindbody timetable. Showers and facilities are available 5am to 8pm daily, no booking needed. Recovery runs 5am to 8pm daily with a booking. Casual recovery visits (no fob) are 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Easy Oar is 7am to 2pm daily. Full guide<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

What is fob access?<\/summary>

Red Shedders and 10-pack holders get a fob for access any time 5am to 8pm daily. Casual visitors without a fob can come in 9am to 5pm on weekdays.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Where are you, and is there parking?<\/summary>

45 John Cardiff Close, Acton ACT 2601, on Black Mountain Peninsula. Free parking is available. The peninsula gate closes, so please leave before closing time.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Programs<\/h2>
What programs do you run?<\/summary>

Coaching is provided for every Red Shed program. Options run from Learn to Row through to high performance, plus youth, school holiday, social, corporate and tourism rowing. See Row<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Which program is right for me?<\/summary>

If you’re new, start with Learn to Row. From there, Continue to Row and Return to Row help you keep going, and performance programs are there when you want to push further. Not sure? Email info@redshed.org.au<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Can I race for Red Shed?<\/summary>

Red Shed doesn’t enter crews at regattas. Rowers who want to race do it through a club, and Black Mountain Rowing Club<\/a> is where most of ours go.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Support & community<\/h2>
How can I support Red Shed?<\/summary>

Red Shed is a not-for-profit built to make rowing, movement and wellbeing possible for everyone, and it exists thanks to private donations. Donations are fully tax deductible through the Australian Sports Foundation. For donations, sponsorship or partnership, email info@redshed.org.au<\/a>. Support Red Shed<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Can I volunteer?<\/summary>

Yes, and we’d love the help. From events to Golden Oar to rowing programs, there’s a role for you. Volunteer<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>

Thinking about learning to row? Our Learn to Row guide<\/a> covers what to wear, how sessions run and where rowing takes you next, including answers to many of our Learn to Row FAQs.<\/p>

Ready when you are<\/h2>

Still got questions? The easiest answer is to come and feel it for yourself.<\/p>
