Have you dreamt of soaring like a bird?...floating through the clouds high up in the sky? Well here's your chance to fulfill your dream with paragliding. It's the closest you can get to flying like a bird

Paragliding is a gentle adventure and by far the latest and easiest way to achieve man's age old quest fo
r free flight. Just about any one can learn this sport, no previous experience is necessary except maybe, a sense of Adventure to make your dreams come true!

Come learn to fly with Nirvana Adventures. Lessons begin on flat ground where you learn to flystudent pilot the glider while safely on the ground, progressing to low level flights on nursery slopes. You then graduate to soaring like a bird.

Lessons in the art of Paragliding depend on how far you want to take it. Obviously the more lessons you take, the more skills you develop. You may take a tandem flight if you prefer, but we think the best way to experience this magical event is on your own.

We recommend you start with a beginner course wherein youlearning on ground get a number of solo flights and then progress to a novice course that takes you all the way to flying on your own without the direct supervision of an instructor. At about this time you can begin thinking about buying your own wing, becoming a hobby pilot and escaping to the solitude and freedom of the cool air above and the camaraderie of fellow pilots on weekends. If you are not so sure but want a closer look the introductory course is for people that don't want to fully commit until they have tried and for families or groups looking for a fun adventure weekend.

Our course pattern, flying operations and pilot rating is in accordance with the United States Hang Gliding Association's standard operating procedures and pilot proficiency systems. Classes are limited to six people so quality instruction is guaranteed. Our emphasis is on getting people to enjoy the sport and fly safely

Course Overview: Here at Nirvana Adventures we have developed a training program that is enjoyable and satisfying in a country holiday atmosphere set amongst the hills. Lessons begin on flat ground where you learn to fly the glider while safely on the ground. After a brief demonstration, you'll put on a harness and learn the necessary kiting, launching and landing skills on flat ground. Your lessons will include demonstrations by your instructor, observation of other students, hands-on experience and ground classes. When you feel comfortable and can demonstrate good control of the glider, we'll move to the training slope where you'll begin your solo flights. You then graduate to solo flying at higher altitudes.

Under the guidance of your instructor calmly talking you through your flight you will learn to takeoff, make gentle turns, judge the wind direction and land gracefully as an eagle. You will then be on your way to mastering the art of powerless flight.

First Flights: All aspects of our training are designed keeping your safety in mind and carried out under controlled conditions.

The Training hill: As a beginner your first flights will be from gentle reassuring hillsides. Our training hill conforms to USHGA recommendations. Shinde tekdi, the lower slopes of Shelar site and ground handling & hops at the 360 site.

Beginner Windspeed: Our student pilots are trained and launched in gentle steady winds blowing perpendicular to the take off as per USHGA guidelines.

Training wings: To start with, a school glider is a very basic glider, very low on performance but with a high safety factor, which is very important at this point.


Continuing with the sport: After the course, then what? A pertinent question we are often asked. Once you join one of our courses, you automatically become a part of the club.

We help you continue with the sport by offering you subsidized rates on glider rental and accommodation at our base at Kamshet. Our newsletter will keep you informed about the weather, who's visiting, our flying trips & clinics and interesting developments in the sport.
