Meet Our Pilots
Behind every breathtaking flight is a passionate instructor, a safety-driven pilot, and a friend who makes your paragliding journey unforgettable. Here's your chance to meet the people who turn dreams into reality — one flight at a time.
Paragliding Mantra began with a single vision: to make safe, affordable, and accessible paragliding a reality in India. Founded by TJ, a decorated Indian Army veteran and a passionate aviator, our journey started in the hills of Uttarakhand, where hundreds of youth were trained and mentored into becoming pilots. With a solid foundation built on discipline, empathy, and courage, we’ve taken this dream to new heights in Kamshet.
Our instructors are not just licensed professionals — they are dreamers, caretakers, and lifelong learners. Every member of our team has undergone rigorous training and international certification. But more than that, they’ve earned their wings through years of experience, thousands of hours in the air, and a deep-rooted commitment to every flyer’s joy and safety.
What sets us apart is our internal culture. We fly together, eat together, grow together. Whether it's cracking jokes during pre-flight checks or playing cricket near the landing site, our team radiates warmth and unity. This spirit of brotherhood and genuine care is what makes Paragliding Mantra not just a flying school — but a family in the sky.
