There are several kinds of Skydiving Coaching and Coaches:

1) You will jump with a USPA rated coach on Categories G & H of the student training progression as you work on getting your "A" License.

2)  Skydive University Coaches coach Licensed skydivers.  While also able to perform the duties of a USPA coach, the Skydive University coach is rated by the independent Skydive University Inc, and primarily works with Licensed skydivers. Click here for information on Skydive University coaching.

3) Experienced skydivers who teach skills in whichever skydiving discipline they excel at. some of the ones we have here at Skydive Orange are:

Skydive University:

Here are two ways to improve your sky diving skills beyond the student training program. These are usually attended by recently "A"  licensed skydivers, although those finishing up the student program at Orange might be allowed to attend if approved by the course director on a case by case basis. Skydive University can and has helped skydivers with hundreds of skydives under their belt who have just not pursued certain aspects of the sport.

1) Individual Skydive University Coaching that you can schedule by contacting Mike Perry

2) Attending one of the occasional Skydive University Skills Camps at Skydive Orange.
