Mentorship Programs


  Skydive Arizona is pleased to offer our mentorship program which is aimed at promoting and improving formation skydiving in a low pressure and affordable manner. The “mentor” program as it has come to be called will focus small groups of skydivers (4-8) into a dedicated one or two day curriculum which will focus on building a strong foundation of good formation skydiving habits. The cost to you for this program will be the cost of your jump tickets, a split of the video slot and fee and nothing more. Mentoring will be provided by members of the Arizona Divewerkz formation skydiving team in cooperation with Skydive Arizona

The mentor program is meant to be the next step in improving basic skills, it will complement the existing load organizing found at Skydive Arizona but will focus on the awareness and skills necessary to take the casual skydiver to the next level. We open this opportunity to all interested parties, not just beginners or 4-way ringers. It is hoped that by bringing together an organized group of individuals who are focused on skills improvement and learning, these participants will find rapid improvement at an incredible value.

Arizona Divewerkz will be offering the mentor program to interested parties on dates listed below:

What: Skydive Arizona Mentor Program
Who: Any interested skydiver, regardless of experience level
When: We begin at 09:00 and should finish around 16:00.
How: Mentoring will be provided by members of the AZ Divewerkz formation skydiving team. For one or two 5 jump day(s) we will assimilate you into our team with at least a 1:3 mentor, student ratio. We will discuss at a minimum the following concepts and skills:
Formation Familiarization and Dive Engineering
Jump routine to include walkthroughs, creeping, visualization and video debrief
Mind mapping, the Arizona Airspeed method of mapping a dive into a sequence of repeatable events which focus on recognition over recall. (It helps with brain locks, we promise!)

We hope that you will find interest in the Skydive Arizona Mentor program and look forward to seeing you on one of the weekends above. Please feel free to contact Blane Boynton at or Betsy Barnhouse.
