We provide the ISSF-standard air rifle or pistol, safety equipment, and unlimited pellets for your one-hour session. Our coaches spend the first ten minutes on range commands and basic technique, so whether you are ten or sixty, you spend the rest of the time actually shooting rather than just reading about it. ### Why Choose Our Range Many think shooting is just about pulling a trigger. Here, we teach you that it is about controlling your breathing, your heartbeat, and your focus. Our facility in Challaghatta is a fully air-conditioned, ISSF-standard shooting range. We use electronic pulley target changers, meaning you spend your time aiming, not walking back and forth to change paper targets. ### What To Expect In Your First Hour This is not a make-shift setup. When you book a Taster Session, you are training in a professional environment that hosts national-level athletes. * **Safety First:** We begin with a mandatory 10-minute briefing on range commands. Even for a casual session, safety is non-negotiable. * **Personalized Coaching:** Our floor coaches are shooters themselves. They will check your stance, help you with your dominant eye, and adjust your grip so you are actually hitting the center of the target, not just the paper. * **The Equipment:** You will be using standard club-class air rifles and pistols that mirror the weight and feel of competition gear. ### Can I Do This? If you are aged 10 or above, you are eligible. We host everyone—from curious individuals and families to corporate groups. If you enjoy the session and want to take it further, our 6-Day Foundation Course is the next logical step. It covers technical stance, sighting, and daily error analysis, giving you a proper E-Certificate signed by Olympian Prakash Nanjappa upon completion. Whether you want to try something new, relieve stress, or see if you have the temperament for competitive shooting, this is the place to start. Stop overthinking and just take the shot. ## About Prakash Nanjappa Shooting Academy I started this academy because I believe winning begins in the mind, not just on the range. We have built an international-standard facility right here in Namma Bengaluru to help everyone, from curious beginners to serious athletes, discover their focus.
