What to expect

You'll arrive to a brief rundown of safety rules and grip technique from the coaches. Then it's straight to the throwing lanes where you'll spend the bulk of the hour hurling axes at wooden targets. The instructors stay close by, giving pointers and pushing you to improve your accuracy. Most sessions turn competitive naturally—mates or family members challenge each other, keep scores, and build up a bit of friendly banter. The whole thing feels less like a formal class and more like a group activity where everyone's having a laugh while actually learning proper form.

Good to know

Wear closed-toe shoes. The venue is fully accessible via public transport and wheelchair accessible throughout. Kids under 11 can attend with an adult but won't throw themselves. Arrive a few minutes early to handle the safety briefing.
