About
I AM TEMPORARILY CLOSING MY BUSINESS HERE,
Hello future archers!
My fee for a private lesson is $25.
Archery lessons for kids, teens, adults.
Everything you need to know about my service is below in my profile.
If you are interested in starting lessons please reply.
I am a certified archery instructor that is also Safe Sport certified through USA Archery which is the organization that governs the Olympic Archery Team.
I regularly teach young and older archers how to be safe in archery as well as how to have fun! My classes are informal fun and informative. I have all the equipment needed. All you need to do is show up in old sneakers because the archery range is outdoors and can be dusty.
If if you just want to practice and receive some tips or if you want to work your way up to a Sunday 300 round tournament you will learn how to be a safe, good archer with me!
I usually teach people 10+ so I have the patience and guidance to help teens along. I have taught groups of adults intermediate archery techniques also.
Since I have equipment you can use you don't have to worry about purchasing equipment now.
Teaching beginners is the best. Seeing them concentrate. And for kids getting them to concentrate on something that is not inside an iPhone is my goal! Archery is the best sport for kids as it teaches PATIENCE, preserverance and calmness. Getting outside is the best thing for kids and adults. Seeing my students work up to enjoying a Sunday informal 300 round tournament is great! Big smiles!
