USPA-Certified Training Center
Earn your skydiving license through our Accelerated FreeFall (AFF) program. The AFF program follows USPA's Integrated Student Program (ISP) — the same curriculum used at certified dropzones worldwide.
The program starts with a 6–8 hour First Jump Ground Course (Thursdays), followed by 8 progressive jumps divided into 5 skill levels (Categories A–E). You'll have a personal instructor on every jump, briefing and debriefing you each time.
The goal: earn your USPA A-License, which requires a minimum of 25 skydives plus written and practical tests. Once licensed, you can jump at any USPA dropzone in the world.
