Parachuting
Beginner
There's nothing quite like leaping out of an aeroplane for the first time. If you're interested in finding out more about parachuting but don't know where to start, the best way to begin is to enrol on a short course of group or private lessons to see if skydiving is for you. Many operators offer ‘primer courses’ that let you do a tandem skydive where you are attached to the front of your instructor's harness for the entire skydive and parachute ride. If you enjoy your single-visit we strongly recommend that you enrol on a multiple-visit course.
Intermediate
If you already have basic skydiving knowledge and would like to try accelerated freefall, many skydiving schools offer certification. Most accelerated freefall lessons will focus on strict safety standards and how to apply these rigorously. They will also teach you about freefall body position, canopy control, landing, practice parachute deployment, and more. Lessons are given privately, allowing you the opportunity to hone specific skills such as heading control.
Advanced
If you’re an ambitious advanced skydiver striving to break through to the next level, honing your skills further means you’ll be able to learn more advanced techniques that will enrich your skydiving experience. Many advanced skydiving lessons encourage you to practice your advanced manoeuvres and delta tracking skills as well as freefall flips and recovery from pre planned unstable body positions. If you enjoy skydiving so much that you’re considering becoming a skydiving instructor, you must take an accredited Instructor Training Course to gain teaching experience as well as technical improvements.
