What are the main axe throwing benefits? Most people think of axe throwing as a rowdy night out — a bit of friendly competition, some pizza, a couple of cocktails, and the chance to prove you’re a better shot than your friends. And yes, it’s definitely all that. But what if we told you it’s also weirdly good for your body and mind?
That’s right: booking a lane at Johnny Throws isn’t just entertainment, it’s a wellness routine in disguise. Here’s why.
You might not feel like you’re working out — but your body does. Every throw engages your shoulders, arms, and back. Add in a bit of core rotation, and you’ve got yourself a surprisingly effective workout.
Think of it like this: ten rounds of three throws each isn’t that different to doing sets in the gym. Only instead of a personal trainer barking at you, you’ve got your mates cheering when you nail the bullseye.
Plus, you get to eat Johnny Dough’s pizza afterwards without feeling guilty. Balance, right?
Ever had one of those weeks where you just want to chuck something? We’ve got you covered. Axe throwing is pure catharsis. The moment you let go of the handle, it’s like releasing the week’s stress.
There’s a rhythm to it too: focus, aim, throw, reset. It’s surprisingly mindful, almost meditative — until someone in your group starts crowing about their perfect score, of course.
So instead of bottling it up, why not throw it at a target?
There’s a little rush of dopamine every time your axe hits the target. That’s science, not just bravado. You’ll feel more confident, more focused, and more alive — all without needing to lift a single dumbbell.
And if you miss? Well, resilience is a muscle too. You’ll want to try again, improve your technique, and before you know it, you’re building patience and perseverance. Pretty sneaky, this wellness stuff.
Wellness isn’t just about working on yourself — it’s about connecting with others. Axe throwing is social by design. You laugh at each other’s wild misses, you celebrate the perfect throws, and you might even invent a victory dance or two.
It’s a group activity that actually makes you put your phones down. How many nights out can you say that about?
Whether it’s date night, a stag do, or just a catch-up with mates, the social wellness factor is off the charts.
At Johnny Throws, you don’t just get a target and an axe — you get trained instructors, safety briefings, and a space designed for maximum fun. Add in our darts lanes, bar, and Johnny Dough’s pizza, and you’ve basically got the ultimate wellness retreat… with cocktails.
So next time someone tells you they’re going to yoga for stress relief, tell them you’re off to throw axes. It’s therapy, but with more high-fives.
If you’re looking for a night out that’s good for your body, brilliant for your mind, and unbeatable for your social life, Johnny Throws is waiting for you.
