Little superheroes all overheard the call and flocked to The Kidz Day: Intro to Kids Club event at iFLY Perth held over two days during the April school holidays!
The excitement was all in anticipation of the launch of iFLY Perth’s excitingly NEW Junior iFLYER Club which has started this school term! Kids learn to become Pro-Flyers able to do aerial tricks and even fly with others in-formation.
The days included exhilarating demonstrations from our current Junior iFLYERs Noah, Cooper and Oxana, along with out-of-the tunnel belly flying training from our coaches and instructors, while every kid had a chance to experience reverse rain within the tunnel. Yes, Reverse rain! We also had colouring-in competitions; prize giveaways and free sausage sizzle.
The club is the first of its kind in Perth, so it wasn’t a surprise that some 800 people attended over the two days!
It was a fantastic turnout and energy was running high! iFLY Perth, iFLY Downunder (Sydney West) & iFLY Gold Coast will be sure to be running many more kids events to promote the sport of indoor skydiving as a choice sport for kids with many more events planned for the future!
Indoor skydiving combines many skills together that challenges and builds coordination, body awareness, team-building and general fitness and flexibility! The Junior iFLYER Club introduces kids to the sport with a dedicated instructor that will guide them through the skills needed to master the air all within a term timetable so they can learn after school or on weekends.
iFLY has a history of HIGH achievers that started in the club including 11-year-old Amy Watson who now competes overseas in indoor skydiving events and even set a Guinness World Record, most 360 horizontal spins in a wind tunnel in one minute (individual); holding the record with 44 completed in one minute! – Read more here.
Or 13-year-old, indoor skydiving athlete, Sarah Yates who competed in the Battle of the Blades competition in Seattle USA last year placing 4th in Junior’s Freestyle!
