Frequently asked questions

• Q: When are you running your classes? When can I have a go? Do I need to book in?
  A: We run classes every day at different times, 4 to 10 classes a day. You can book your class for the day & time that is convenient for you, including today if there are places available. We do not accept walk-ins, your place needs to be booked prior to the class and we operate a 48 hour cancellation policy in case you need to make any changes.


• Q: Are your classes suitable for complete beginners? How long are your classes? Do I need to bring anything with me?
  A: Our taster classes are designed for complete beginners, are 90 minutes long, coached in a group (adults & kids together // 10 people max), with all the equipment provided. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and avoiding high heels.


• Q: Are there any age restrictions to attend a class?
  A: We cater to anyone 8+ years old, there's no upper limit (our most senior visitor was celebrating his 90th birthday).


• Q: When can I start my training on a course? What days do you run course classes? Are these on a weekly basis?
  A: As above, all our classes run every day at various times, including course classes. You can book each class at your convenience and complete your course in 3 days (doing 2 classes a day) or spread it over 3 months.


• Q: Do I need to do a taster class, if I'm planning to take a course?
  A: Taster class is the first class of the course. You only need to tell us on the day that you'd like to continue with the course.

  A: Simply call or email us or fill in the form - and we'll advise on the current availability and get you booked in. We reply to all enquiries within 24 hours, most are resolved within 2 hours (during opening time). Online booking is only available for the club members & people doing a course.


• Q: How much does it cost?
  A: £30 per person for a one-off class (PAYG) or £150 per person for the package of 6 classes. You do not need to purchase a package to do the course - PAYG is also fine.

  A: Most payments can be made on the day of your class, we accept cash and cards. We require prepayment for groups of 3+ people - this can be made with card over the phone or by bank transfer.

  A: Shall the club have to close for any reason - all expiry dates will be extended accordingly (although we wouldn't be able to offer refunds, as per our T&Cs).

  A: We do not have our own parking facility. There are 10 pay & display bays across the road (£3 p/h), and free roadside parking on a single yellow line after 18:30 on weekdays & whole weekends.

Why do archery with Archery Fit?

• if you are interested in archery: see our services & rates (we are the best indoor archery club in London).
• if you are a kid: you know who Hawkeye, Merlyn, Green Arrow, Katniss Everdeen, Princess Merida, Legolas, Robin Hood are, right?
• if you are an adult: you will understand your kids better ;) or hit their charts at least!
• if you are in the City: 25 mins by direct DLR from Bank, 10 mins from Canary Wharf.
• if you are not a London local: it will take you a while to get to us buddy, but you can combine your visit with Greenwich sightseeing - Cutty Sark, the Observatory, the Maritime Museum, the Market, the Meridian and all ;)
• if you are a fitness freak: lats, triceps, quadriceps (as well as traps, obliques, rhomboids, abs, glutes and calves).
• if you are bored of fitness: well, we should have addressed you first :) we've got beanbags and live TV!

• if you are an extrovert: you will be among other extroverts and introverts (please show respect to the latter).
