Our Philosphy here at Pembs Para, is to always retain a deep awareness and understanding of how intense and important this first phase of Paraglider education is. This is why we believe is keeping numbers low, and focusing on our students individual needs and foibles, this enables us to give genuine First Class Bespoke Tuition, with great attention to each student. This is simply not possible with a more 'High Numbers Sausage Factory' approach.

We have nearly 20 years experience of taking someone who has never flown a paraglider, and turning them into a competent, confident pilot. We are also truly blessed to have some of the most beautiful and most benign sites in the whole world, for this vital first stage of learning.
