Fliers do not jump or fall, but simply lean into the wind tunnel and float on the column of air while learning basic flying skills. With additional training, fliers can progress to group flying and advanced aerial maneuvers to further enjoy the sport of indoor skydiving. iFLY also offers an accredited STEM ( Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) education program that teaches and educates grades 2 through 12 in a fun and interactive environment utilizing the flight experience to help students understand gravity, drag and other principles of physics and flight.
