Archery Class in Galicia: Olympic Recurve Bows for All Ages

Master your aim with Olympic recurve bows and professional instruction

A two-hour archery class in Galicia where you learn FITA-standard technique in a theory session, then practice live shooting with Olympic-style recurve bows tailored to your age and size, guided by a professional instructor. All safety gear, the bow, and access to changing rooms and private parking are included. The pool is available as an extra service.

The experience

The class opens with a theory session grounded in official FITA standards, so you understand the mechanics before you draw. A professional instructor walks you through the essentials (stance, grip, release), then moves you to the range for 70 minutes of active shooting. You'll work with a high-quality Olympic recurve bow fitted to your size, whether you're an adult or a child, and the instructor stays with you to refine your aim and correct your form as you shoot.

Safety gear comes with the booking: armguards, finger tabs, and arrows are all provided, along with liability insurance. The facilities include private parking, changing rooms where you can freshen up after, and access to traditional games if you want to unwind before heading out. The whole session runs two hours, so it fits into a morning or afternoon without consuming your entire day.

This works for complete beginners and for people who've shot before but want structured coaching. Infants can attend if held by an adult. The activity suits all fitness levels, so the barrier to entry is low.
