SKYDIVE COURSES FOR THE BEGINNER.

1. START YOUR SKYDIVING CAREER WITH AN ACCELERATED FREE-FALL COURSE.


New to skydiving? No worries, our experienced instructors are here to help you find your wings!


Learn basic survival skills and elementary tricks for free-fall and canopy piloting in an Accelerated Free-Fall (AFF) course. This 10-jump program follows a simple to complex progression through the student skydiver's skills grid and is being administered in a one-on-one format by your personal AFF Instructor.


Visit our ACCELERATED FREE-FALL COURSE tutorial and learn all there is to know about the structure of your AFF course and associated tuition fees, registration requirements, available AFF course dates and booking procedures with the Flight Club skydiving school in Russia.

Once you have successfully mastered all targeted learning objectives of your AFF course, you will be a qualified self-supervised skydiver, meaning that you have been cleared to skydive solo without instructor free-fall supervision.


With more than 20,600 skydives and exceeding 300 hours of freefall experience, Stephan is nothing short of a skydiving machine.

ABOUT THE FLIGHT CLUB SKYDIVING SCHOOL.

OUR HISTORY AND ORIGIN.



The Flight Club skydiving school was originally established on the territory of Skydive Arizona in Eloy, Arizona, by a loose assembly of five legendary skydivers. The label soon turned into a wildly popular outfit in the world skydiving scene and things took off from there.


Today, the original members have moved on to pursue their individual careers, each with great success.


What has remained, is Flight Club's reputation for fielding world-class skydive coaches on the international playing field, providing state-of-the-art skydive student training, load-organizing, coaching and mentorship to skydivers of any experience level.

1. SKYDIVE ORGANIZING.

In Flight Club, we have some pretty seasoned skydivers in our ranks, pros which have skydived with literally thousands of people over the years. 

In the process, they figured out how to read the game well and learned to accurately gauge the players on the pitch in no time. We understand that skydivers want to be safe, have fun, push the envelope a little bit, build some confidence in the process and last but not least, make some friends on the drop-zone. 


Our skydive load-organizers are here for exactly all of that. We organize individual flyers of compatible skill into groups, help you engineer your skydive, and assist in executing and debriefing your group skydives.


2. PERSONAL COACHING.

Flight Club's skydive training curriculum features progressive skills development courses custom-designed to help you master individual skills sets in free-fall and under canopy and typically last anywhere from a day to a week.

 

Our multi-lingual professional coaches teach in a one-on-one environment and facilitate a holistic teaching style in a "top down" format, meaning we teach from the latest high-performance models in all aspects of sport skydiving: 

equipment knowledge, effective motor-skill development during the preparation phase, psychological aspects of the in-flight phase, correct execution of bio-mechanic principles and mental toughness in-air, increased situational awareness and sound decision making under canopy, systematic detailed skill analysis and SMART debriefing sequences.


3. PERSONAL MENTORING.

For all those amongst you, who are out there on a skydiving mission of some sort and are looking for professional support and guidance along the way to make things happen, this might be for you! 

No matter whether you want to become a skydive- instructor, compete at the world championship, open an aviation business, run your own drop-zone, need networking assistance in the industry, or simply want to be the best that you can personally be in any specific area of the sport, chances are that we have somebody in Flight Club who has been there and done that and accordingly, knows exactly how to go about it all.


Find out in detail how the Flight Club skydiving school can help maximize your personal potential in this exhilarating sport, right here in our comprehensive skydive COACHING, ORGANIZING, MENTORING tutorial including complete training curricula, associated tuition fees and booking assistance.
