Skydive Spaceland-San Marcos — Fentress, TX
As a coach I want to help people go from where they are, to where they want to be. My coaching philosophy is rooted in structured, intentional learning that bridges theory with practical movement. I emphasize clear communication, personalized feedback, and the importance of fostering confidence through skill-building. I believe all body flight is merely moving our bodies in a way that allows the wind to push us where we want to go. Thus, all levels, skills and disciplines of body flight are building blocks that are intimately connected.

Mile High Skydiving Center — Longmont, CO
In some ways coaching is a selfish endeavor because I never feel more fulfilled as a human than after an incredible coaching session. I know that must sound hyperbolic, but I have spent my entire adult life learning to crack the code of human flight and I love sharing that knowledge with people who feel a similar itch in their soul, with others who know deep down that humans were meant to fly. Plus, I love seeing my students on the podium. I believe in giving my students a set of basic concepts that will unlock the underlying code of human flight. I want to teach you HOW to think about flying, not WHAT to think about flying. From basic to pro level personal flight skills, all the way to creating and maintaining a podium worthy 2 way VFS or MFS team, I would love to help you achieve your goals in this magnificent sport of ours.

Skydive Arizona — Eloy, AZ
Helping people to achieve their goals and progress in the sport is one of the most rewarding things I can do. I love seeing that "aha!" moment from a student when they figure something out that they've been working on. When I coach, I work with the individual to find what coaching style works best for them. Every person is different, and so I don't believe there's only one way to coach - a good coach is flexible and works with their student, so that's what I try to do with every student I have Organizing & events: LO at multiple boogies, former LO at SDAZ, Project19 regional captain responsible for organizing big way training camps.

Skydive Twin Cities — Baldwin, WI
If you like flying then we will be friends. That's been my motto for years, and it still holds true every time I'm in the air! I coach because I love watching it click for someone. Bodyflight is the ultimate mix of freedom and power — using your body to make flying real. The best part is sharing that feeling with friends. The wind doesn't care how strong you are; it cares about the shape of your body. I coach the positive and follow the process of Safety first, fun second, progress third. In 21+ years teaching thousands to fly, I've found it keeps you in the flow state — more enjoyment, less stress, and it saves you money — just more efficient. Get those right and style develops over time. Lets Fly! Live The Dream (LTD) Flow state coach/utilitarian bodypilot my students can function in any environment or competition. Organizing & events: I was on the boogie tour for SkyVenture Colorado and had the privilege of organizing at MANY dropzones over the years, in all bodyflight disciplines. Load organizing was my full-time job for years, and I've hosted and organized even more tunnel events over the last 21 years.

GoJump Oceanside — Oceanside, CA
It's a meaningful way to increase sustainability while staying connected to the next generation of flyers in a community that gave me purpose and a healthier lifestyle. I want to be a credible guide in a sport where progression can be unclear—helping people stay safer while they progress and enjoy flying and avoid unnecessary "expensive" trial-and-error. Understand the student and circumstances, then adapt. Zoom out, paint a whole picture, then zoom in to the puzzle pieces, then zoom back out and repeat. Use feelings+data. Blend knowledge and experience from all forms of flying wings - especially bodyflight and parachutes (paragliding, speedflying, parakiting). Organizing & events: Regular weekend warrior fun jumping, camera flying, events, and boogies. All skills levels.
