Course development:
The courses are held on weekends and during the week if there is a sufficient number of students. The students are concentrated in the school, where the material is checked and the transport is prepared for take-off. The most suitable displacement is carried out depending on the meteorological conditions of the moment, and assisted by the instructor, we proceed to take off. In progressive flights, exercises and maneuvers will be performed with the paraglider that allow us to control the flight under normal circumstances. The level acquired by each student will always be respected when advancing in learning
