SafePro Paragliding School
Twenty-one days. SafePro Level 3 certification. Three weeks of paragliding in Tenerife, where the flying season runs 300+ days a year.
Why winter in Tenerife
Tenerife averages 300+ flyable days per year, with a stable microclimate in the south that makes it the single best place in Europe to learn paragliding in winter.
Our School runs 21-day intensive bootcamps designed to take a complete beginner to SafePro Level 3 — the first three international certification stages — in three weeks. After that, you keep flying with us under supervision to earn SafePro Level 4 (full pilot license) over two to twelve months, depending on your pace.
You'll finish a bootcamp able to inflate, run, launch, control, and land a paraglider solo. From there, you're a pilot in training.

The certification
We teach the SafePro system, developed in Europe and recognised internationally. SafePro and BHPA certifications are accepted across Europe, the UK and most of the world. You finish our bootcamp with SafePro Level 3 — a real credential that lets you fly under instructor supervision anywhere.
Three weeks, three stages
Twenty-one days built for progression. Each week deepens what the last one opened.
01
Days 1-3: theory — meteorology, equipment, airspace, safety. Days 4-7: ground handling intensive, then your first small-hill flights.
02
Days 8-14: progressive flights from Taucho and Ifonche. Altitude gain, air discipline, wing control across the full 700-1,000 m range.
03
Days 15-19: cross-country basics, thermalling introduction, emergency procedures. Days 20-21: written and practical exam, certification.
Your journey
Day 1
You learn to control the wing on flat ground. No altitude, no pressure — just you and the glider.
Days 3–5
Short flights on gentle slopes. The first time the ground disappears beneath your feet.
Week 2
You fly independently from 600m. Toni follows from the ground with a radio — but every decision is yours.
Week 3
Cross-country navigation, thermal flying introduction, written theory, and practical assessment.
Final day
You leave with your official licence. Recognised across Europe. Ready to fly any certified site.

Winter peak is the season this school is designed for — highest demand, most stable flying. Low season is also fully viable; we simply run fewer sessions.
Upcoming sessions
Sessions run every two months when we have at least five students confirmed. Use the form below and we'll notify you as soon as the next one locks in.
Graduates
I came with zero experience and left with my P2. Toni's teaching style is calm, methodical, and genuinely passionate. By week three I was flying solo from Taucho — something I never thought possible.

The three weeks in Tenerife were transformative. Not just the flying — the weather window, the sites, the daily briefings. I've done courses in Austria and France. This was the best.

Toni is honest about your progress in a way most instructors aren't. If you're not ready to move on, he says so. That rigour is why I trust my licence. Best investment I've made in a sport.
