I had the pleasure of attending Temple Pilots for a month while undertaking the training to attain an APPI3 licence.
They came highly recommended to me by a friend who was there the previous year.
I can’t overstate what a fantastically run operation it really is.
They demonstrate that rare combination of “professionalism and warmth”.
The instructors are second to none and are among the very best that you are likely to find.
Paragliding can be dangerous at times; it’s the nature of the sport. So you really rely on having exceptional teachers around you.
The instructors at Temple Pilots bring a lovely sense of calmness and fun.
I don’t exaggerate when I say the likes of Ankush could guide you through a burning building, and not alone would you come out unscathed, but you would enjoy it.
You just don’t come across this wealth of experience concentrated in one place too often.
In an age of bluster, self-promotion, and narcissistic nonsense, they demonstrate what it means to be genuinely exceptional at what they do.
They are the real deal.
I would happily make the 7700 km trip from Ireland to India to train with them again.
