From first strokes on the water to preparing elite crews, every camp is built around your goals.

Your coach
Stéphane Durand
Rowing expert, former French international
A rowing expert and former French international and world medallist, I now help athletes and organisations optimise their performance. My expertise was forged in the field, through an international coaching career that has led me to manage teams in Spain, Argentina, Brazil and Puerto Rico, as well as in France.
This cosmopolitan experience taught me that passing on technique is fruitless without a comprehensive coaching methodology. More than a coach, I see myself as a strategic partner. I give rowers — from masters and recreational level to the Olympic elite — the teaching, structure and perspective they need to make sound decisions.
My view is simple: effort without planning or benchmarks leads to a glass ceiling or to burnout. To prevent this, I turn rowers' potential into concrete, measurable action plans. By making every training session count, we reach goals that are ambitious yet realistic. At the heart of this success lies one unique and universal performance lever: mutual trust.
My coaching comes in the form of camps and targeted programmes:
- Individual camps: personalised coaching and high-precision technical correction
- Group camps: to boost cohesion and bring crews together
- Club packages: to meet your logistical needs or to back up your coaches
- Performance facilitator: free yourself from logistical constraints and the unexpected. I put my network and skills at your team's service, so the coach can stay 100% focused on their goal
