Have you ever dreamt of soaring like a bird
?
In
that case, join us under the Greek weather and learn in
two weeks, as much as in a year in the UK!
Our paragliding courses run over 2 weeks. Once passed
you will get a French license that can be converted to
an English one. The price is 1650 € (roughly £1100).
Package course + gear
2 weeks training
+ full equipment package for 4200 € (about £2900),
including: r Niviuk, DHV 1 glider, with Karpofly
harness and reserve, all installed and top quality gear.
That's £100 saving.
Christophe, our chief instructor, has build is own
teaching program based on 22 years of flying all
types of aircraft, teaching in many countries, cooperating
with many schools, observing and learning from them.
 It is called “down to earth”. Each theory lecture
is directly related to practice and to safety.
You will learn using the “feed-back technique” going your own way
at your own pace in a holiday atmosphere.
This is an intense paragliding course, but it will be up to you, to follow
it through, gaining a license by the end of the two weeks or to take it
more relaxed, following most of the course, which will give you a good
base if you decide to carry on.
One of the advantages of our course is that you will be breathing the flying
atmosphere!
You will talk paragliding, eat paragliding & do paragliding, instead of
learning 2 days now and 2 days next month to find out that you have forgotten
the previous lessons!!
We will be using the same structure as our paragliding holidays, but holidays
and school will be separated, each group having its own minibus, driver
and instructor.
We will meet them in the evenings and hopefully we will be flying with
them by the end of the second week.
The course consists of lectures, videos and a lot of practice.
The practice sessions are divided in 2:
- ground handling, quite physical but that’s where
you learn the most, we will do some every day.
- Flying, that’s the easy and nice part.
Actual training will take place every day, from Sunday morning (arriving the
evening before) until Saturday mid day.
It is not possible for anyone to concentrate all of the time, so we will
have a break from time to time, enjoying canoeing, biking or snorkeling.
A booklet with
the details of your progression and a certificate of your
level will be given to you, which can be used for a UK
conversion with any UK school. After these two weeks you
will also be able to come to our paragliding holidays,
as a pilot.
