Lykopis Archery

My teen had been wanting to learn about Archery for quite some time and then we found Lykopis. We are both so grateful that we did. Patricia runs excellent classes and all the instructors are knowledgeable and make learning fun. The kids class gets to learn history and crafts as well as Archery and my teen always comes out of class excited and wanting to learn more!!!!

The owner is difficult to communicate with, unprofessional, defensive and dismissive. When I realized that this place of business was continuing to uphold a mask policy - which I did not realize until after the first day of my sons camp that it was not optional - I requested that he have the option of not wearing the mask. This was a hard no from the owner and she was unwilling to compromise on any part of a refund. We did not want our son inside, being active for 5 hours and having to wear his mask. While I respect it is a business owners right, it is no longer a mandate. In any case, regardless of whether or not I would have received even a partial refund I would have appreciated having a conversation with her about it. After communicating with a member of her staff I requested to speak with her, after I called and sent an email, the owner replied to my email with a cold, defensive, and righteous message.I would not send my child here.

Took the introductory class this saturday and loved it. The teacher is really knowledgeable and passionate, she apparently takes part to a lot of international competitions and have a lot of little stories that she tells during those 2h. They are also really mindful of the on going pandemic and rules, which is highly appreciated. Practical location too! 100% recommended

What an incredible experience! I recently completed the Intro to Archery class and Patricia and the team are such great teachers.They made us feel really comfortable, we were able to ask all the questions that we needed, and I’m excited to continue doing ongoing classes.If you’ve ever thought about learning archery, this is the place to go! It’s also great to support local businesses and even better when you can tell it’s their passion to do it. Highly recommend!

Really passionate teachers who are incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of archery. There are great opportunities to learn repair skills and bow and arrow crafting. The instructors are very patient and have great attention to detail in developing good form, and create a really good environment to focus.

LOVE this place! I signed up for an intro class almost two years ago and immediately signed up for classes. I was drawn in by the passionate, fun way in which the instructors taught their craft/art. After researching other options...what drew me to this school was the commitment to teaching different disciplines of traditional archery. The teaching environment is inclusive and structured,with awareness of individual physical needs. My archery class is a highlight of my week-every week :-)

I took the Introduction to Archery Workshop with Patricia this weekend and could not recommend it more. Patricia is clearly a master archer. I felt very privileged to be able to take a class with an instructor of her experience (she has consulted on major TV productions!)In addition to her skill, she also shared with us a wealth of knowledge on the history of archery, which I appreciated learning more about given that I am a giant history nerd.More than that, she created an engaging and safe learning environment. People felt comfortable asking questions and chatting with one another thanks to the great work Patricia put into fostering that environment. As a University Professor, I understand how hard it can be to take a room full of strangers and turn them into a learning community. Patricia was able to do this using her charisma, humor, and passion for her subject.The class is divided into a lecture portion (about 70% of class time) and a practical portion (about 30%). The only thing I would change in the class would be to mix the lecture and practical elements up a bit to get people out of their seats and give them time to digest the information.If you are interested in learning more about the history or practice of archery, I would highly recommend the class.

I did an introductory session here, with my friends. Eva, our instructor was very lovely. She explained safety rules, different forms and bows to us. However, the most interesting part of the class, throwing arrows, was the briefest. When I reserved, they said the class would be 75 minutes for 3 ppl and i paid 190$. But we finished after an hour, and our instructor spent the first 20 minutes on preparing the range and the bows. The whole experience was very fun but I think they charge way too much for throwing a total of 4 arrows.

There is no better place in town to learn all about archery! Amazing instructors who have a wealth of history and knowledge and a deep respect for all forms of archery.I really appreciated the lead teacher's attention and obvious joy in teaching newcomers to the sport. If you've ever been interested in archery this is the place to go!
