About Kaz Sheekey

I coach because I genuinely love people and I love this sport — and there is nothing quite like watching a student's confidence grow as their skills sharpen. With over 23 years of coaching, I've learned that the fastest path to progress is a solid foundation built the right way from the start. Structured exercises, real feedback, and a safe path forward — shortening the learning curve while showing students just how fun this sport can be. Watching that progress and confidence build? That's why I coach. Simple — meet the student where they are and move them forward. I tap into each person's unique learning style and focus on giving them tools they can use long after our session ends, including the ability to debrief themselves. I keep it fun and light, but every student walks away a better pilot — that's the goal. Organizing & events: Flight-1 military and sports canopy coach for over 15 years. Canopy coaching from 2001. Leading flocking camps.
