“I’ve never been in such good health—mentally or physically. I had PTSD from my accident, but rowing has improved my memory and mood. From the first time I went to the BAYADA Regatta, I’ve been hooked ever since. This is hands-down my favorite regatta, and I’m blessed to be able to do it.” – Joel, BAYADA Regatta Rower
After sustaining multiple traumatic injuries in a car accident and spending years on the couch, Joel discovered Brooks Adaptive Sports. He took a Learn to Row class at an able-bodied club and continues to train with Brooks Adaptive today. Joel’s story reminds us that with determination, you can thrive.
