Virtual Coaching
Elevate your paragliding skills from the comfort of your home with our virtual coaching service, designed by world class instructors to take your flying abilities to new heights.
Why virtual coaching?
After a pilot achieves a P2, P3, and/or P4 rating there are very few options for formal continuing education. We want to work with you to create a customized learning path based from your strengths and areas that need attention to shorten your learning curve, increase performance, and maximize both safety and fun.
Our program covers getting past intermediate syndrome to cross country performance gains to moving up the ranks at national and international competition.
How can we do this online?
Each client starts by completing a flying logbook that includes overall breakdown of flying completed thus far, aspirations for what they seek to gain from working with our coaches, strengths and challenges. We will teach you how to create efficient practices to enhance your flying capabilities and avoid common learning pitfalls which will create a sustainable learning curve.
First Step
1 hour Zoom consultation where we go over your logbook, take a deep dive into your flying history, talk about the psychological side of your practice, and work to develop a 6-12 month plan depending on your specific needs and goals.
Next Steps
We will meet 2-4 times monthly for 1-hour sessions where we go over progress, work on new ideas, review track logs and cover all topics surrounding paragliding that you want to work on.
As you progress in your flying and/or depending on your individual needs we will utilize an arsenal of world class coaches and guides to bolster the breadth of your knowledge and viewpoints surrounding paragliding gear, strategy, and safety protocols.
Last, But Not Least
Clients who commit to 12 months of learning will also get an in-person training retreat in a location to be determined for an in person group masterclass with a maximum of 5 clients where we will utilize the group environment to delve into shared topics.
