Glen was fantastic. His knowledge was superb, and he explained everything really clearly, making the lesson fun and enjoyable. My daughter was quite nervous at first, but Glen made her feel strong and confident, and she absolutely loved it by the end.
A great experience and we would definitely recommend.
We all had a great afternoon archery,with very interesting history about the longbow and excellent tuition and we all able to achieve a reasonable standard before the end of the lesson. I would highly recommend for all ages
Glenn was a great teacher. Talked us through the history of each bow we used whilst making sure our technique was solid. He kept it fun with plenty of games designed to help with accuracy etc. We had so much fun we joined the club. Well worth the money and loved every minute. Thanks Glenn :)
I was not actually intending to do archery myself, it was a birthday present from my husband, but I really enjoyed it! Glen was most informative and a very encouraging and effective instructor and I did achieve a lot better than I expected ! We both hope to go again. lovely setting too.
