Highlights
  • 100-150 York St - After a warm welcome to our axe-cellent venue, we will jump right into a safety briefing. This covers how to stay safe, scoring and competition rules (we can’t have any cheating at crunch time can we?). \n\nThen it is to the reason you guys are all here, the AXES! We’ll run through the basic technique, how to hold and how to throw the axe. Once we’re through this, it is down to you to have a go! The instructor will be on hand throughout the session, watching your throw, offering advice on how you can improve. What is really important to us is that you start to understand your own technique so when you finally leave, you’re a fully fledged axe ninja!\n\nOnce the basics are out of the way it’s quickly onto a wide selection of new throws, double-handed, throwing with the axe head facing backwards, throwing 2 axes at once. These will all help you to develop a strong technique in time for ..the team COMPETITION! Pit your skills against the others in your group, competition mode always brings out some strong axe game!\n\nFinally to end our glorious hour of axe throwing, we will take a group picture! (As long as everyone consents to the picture).

Additional Information

Hello, my name’s Gareth. I’m a seasoned axe thrower and the originator of Black Axe Throwing Co. I, along with my associates Kevin, Jake, Bronach, Alicia, Ryan and Jamie, will provide you with expert guidance from your initial throw. We’ll equip you with all necessary skills to achieve that thrilling first target hit. We’ll guide you through safety protocols and basic techniques, introduce some sophisticated throws that might surprise you, and then…time for the big challenge — the Golden Axe competition. Test your freshly acquired skills with us. If you’ve never gripped an axe before, have no fear, we’re here to guide you. Take inspiration from the 73-year-old grandmother we trained to throw two axes simultaneously! She aced it.

30th Birthday - I booked Axe Throwing as a surprise activity for my husband 30th birthday afternoon. We booked online using viator and when we arrived William was cracking jokes and made us feel so at ease. I was worried that because it at the end of the day your throwing axes it would be very strict but william made everything light hearted and absolutely made sure we had a get but ultimately making sure we were safe. William really made the experience even more fun for us.

Black Axe is a must see attraction - Visited Black Axe and I got to say they are some of the most kindest, fun and attractive men I have ever laid witness to. They are so friendly and made for a very enjoyable and fun experience. I was immediately greeted to some very kind works by the staff that really touched my heart ❤️. The teaching of the sessions are very fun and straightforward. It is definitely a place you will want to return to again and again and is a great place for any occasion. Love you all. We danced, we sang, we laughed and we threw sharp objects. What more do you want?.

Great Fun. - Fantastic 1 hour session with Joans. He was really friendly, informative and made the session really good fun. I went with my 24 Year old son and 76 year old Mum. He made sure that we all enjoyed it and encouraged us all. The instructions were given with safety in mind but in a fun way. Would definitely go again.
