Our coach one of the best people I have ever encountered patient and very very informant gave us wonderful tips and taught us how to do the underarm pass, which is amazing. I will definitely recommend this place and I will definitely return.

I had a great time growing axes and knives! Even though I kissed most of them I had a good time trying haha. The person who taught me to throw did a great job teaching and gave good advice! Even for 30 minutes it was a good time. You have to enter thought the side and there is no parking near the entrance door.

Coach LA took great care of us! We loved his style and encouragement. We were experts by the end! Thank you!

This was the only place I was able to find where I was able to take my boys. My son turned 14 and wanted something cool to do for his birthday. We reserved for an hour. The first 30 minutes was just getting comfortable and getting used to the throwing the axe and knives. After that we got more comfortable and had a blast! The young lady helping us was so cool. She gave us tips and was awesome enough to take our pictures. Will definitely visit again

Fun stuff once you get going. I do wish that the coach wouldn’t have coached for half of the time, for each block of time is only 1.5 hours. Other than that, it is a cool spot! Don’t bring food/drink, that way you can optimize your time throwing.
