DESCRIPTION:Prairie paragliding will be offering a complete P1/P2 course Ju
 ly 14th-30th 2026 based in Dawson City Yukon. This course is intended for 
 students with no prior experience paragliding\, and by the completion of t
 he course students will have earned their P2 rating allowing them to conti
 nue flying independently.\n\nThe course will run all day for all of the sc
 heduled days. Depending on weather students should expect ~6 hours trainin
 g each day as two 3 hour blocks (morning/afternoon and evening) with a lon
 g break. Though it may be possible to complete the course attending only o
 ne block on week days\, and both blocks on weekends\, success will be high
 ly sensitive to weather. The tentative schedule for the course is:\n\n 	Ju
 ly 14th &amp\; 15th P1 Ground Training - All students need to be available
  all day for this portion*. Students not completing the ground training\, 
 or having insufficient ground skills will not be able to safely participat

 al ground time\, however\, the needs of all students must be considered an
 d adjustment may not be possible.\nThe course will be based in Dawson City

 o arrange their own transportation among the group.\n\nPrior to the course

 mited to 8 to ensure that students get the feedback they need to complete 
 this intensive course. There is a minimum enrolment of 4 students to make 
 this course possible. Priority will be given to Yukon residents.\n\nEquipm
 ent will be provided (students will need to bring their own helmet\, glove
 s\, and appropriate footwear)\, however\, students are strongly encouraged
  to purchase their own equipment so they can continue flying. A discount w
 ill be offered with purchase of equipment. Students should not purchase an
 y used equipment without consultation with the instructor\, as the used ma
 rket is of varying quality and safety.\n\nCost:\n\n 	Yukon Residents: $175

  amount of the partial refund will depend on the amount of the course disr
 upted. No refund will be available for students failing to complete the co
