From AFF to A-License: your next step as a skydiver
The bottom line:
After your AFF course, the A-license is your next step. In one focused week, you’ll build toward the required 25 jumps, with personal coaching, technical growth, and an environment that helps you become a fully independent skydiver.
You grow from your first jump to flying solo
The A-license is the natural next step after your Accelerated Freefall (AFF) course.
With at least 7 jumps under your belt, you’re already jumping on your own. In one intensive week, you’ll continue building toward your official license. You’ll work toward the full set of 25 jumps, develop new skills, and grow in confidence.
The entire week is about flying. Your body adapts, your mind follows, and halfway through you feel it happen: you become a skydiver.
A week that changes everything
What usually takes months can happen here in just a few days. Not because we rush — but because the environment is right. You sleep in a place that smells like sea and adventure. You eat with people who share the same dream. And every day, you jump, learn, laugh, and grow.
Every jump has a purpose. You get instant feedback and feel how everything starts to click. You don’t just learn how to skydive — you learn why. That gives you calm, control, and confidence.
More than just technique
During this week, you’ll not only work on your freefall technique, but also on your landings, your ground knowledge, and your mental strength.
Packing your own parachute is a practical requirement for the A-license — but it’s about more than that. Understanding what you do gives you control and confidence.
That moment when you pack your own rig and walk to the plane? That’s not just a formality. That’s ownership. And it shows in your jump.
Jumping in places that inspire
We choose our locations carefully.
Whether you go for France on the Atlantic coast or Morocco at the foot of the Atlas Mountains — you’ll jump in an atmosphere of focus, calm, and inspiration.
It doesn’t feel like a course. It feels like a journey. You leave the noise of daily life behind. No work, no distractions — just you, the sky, and a team that’s got your back.
