Our History
BRIAN CHISHOLM
Founder and creator of oarca.

Inspired by nature’s most efficient swimmers and based on the natural movement of a rowing scull, I’ve created Oarca’s Dynamic Oscillation Technology, applying vertical and horizontal sweeping motion to capture the true ebb & flow of being on the open water. There is nothing like it on the market today. The Oarca Rowing machine combines the beauty and functionality your active life deserves. Each unit is hand crafted in my Evanston workshop with the finest components, materials, and finishes to provide a lifetime of whole-body fitness. I’m right here in your neighborhood to support you and any service your rower may need.
