Alternative Sports in Jakarta

One of the key to stay health and stay happy in Jakarta is to always get moving and find new physical things to do. If you feel a little burned out with your normal jogging routes or the same gym routines, we recommend trying out some new activities offered around Jakarta. If you haven’t already, check out these cool things listed below that can help you get more excited about working out and to work some new muscle regions!

1. Archery

An ancient sport that has been around for hundreds of years, archery has recently started to gain popularity in Jakarta. It might seem simple, but archery is a lot more than just a simple aim, pull & release. It is known to be one of the fields of sport that requires the most focus, patience and stability. If you are interested to pick up a bow and arrow, Jakarta has its own archery club: Jakarta Private Archery, where both kids (ages 10 and up) and adults can learn and practice this ancient art.
