Welcome to Sky Sisters
We are here to build community and belonging, embrace exploration, and support growth for female pilots around the world. Our lives are transformed through paragliding. For many female pilots, it’s the first time they are given the opportunity to believe in themselves as Pilot in Command, and that type of self confidence can be life changing. Being a pilot means something different for every individual, and whatever ways the joy of flying is part of your life it is perfect and valid. By embracing that there is no “best” way to express yourself as a pilot we strive to support each person’s journey.
Women make up a small fraction of the overall pilot community, and we often face unique challenges: being light weight, learning style, lack of role models, and sometimes outright sexism. Have you ever been the only female pilot on launch? Asked if you were the driver, or who you are there with? Has this ever affected your confidence or enjoyment in flying? We have too. Sky Sisters was born from the desire to dissolve these barriers, improve female retention in the sport, and most of all have fun flying, learning, and traveling safely together.
When we create this shift in our own perspectives, it ripples through our local communities, eventually transforming the sport as a whole.
You belong. Let’s create some magic!
Testimonials
“Sky Sisters puts on one epic tour, and it starts with guides that know the ins and outs of where we’re flying and speak with kindness and inclusivity. Monika truly spark the joy of flying in everyone that attends. And Summer brings out the best in every pilot. In just 8 days I elevated my flying and confidence to new heights and made incredible new friendships.”
"Going to the Alps with the Sky Sisters was an amazing experience. I came home a new and more confident pilot, having made wonderful friends along the way. I can't wait to go again! "
“I loved having a crew of fun and inspiring women to fly with and hang out with in beautiful accommodations, and the inspiration and motivation to get up and practice yoga before flying each morning loosened up my stiff muscles and centered my breathing and mind for the day. With all that support on the ground and the guiding in the air, I absolutely grew in my skills and confidence as a pilot, and I flew several of my personal longest flights so far during this tour.”
“Sky Sisters Alps tour is one of the best memories of my paragliding life. The support and encouragement by Monika, Summer, and the great tour mates enabled me to enjoy flying more than ever!”
“For a low hour pilot who had never done yoga, this tour provided everything I needed to progress as a pilot, as a person with an aging body, and as a woman who before had few friends who understood my passion for flying. My gratitude knows no bounds.”
“As a newer P2, after the week flying with the FANTASTIC Sky Sisters, I felt like a much better pilot. Summer and Monika were excellent coaches who helped me improve my skills and they have truly created something special with this tour! Thank you!”
“A heartfelt thank you to Monika and Summer for their competent and professional guidance. I always felt completely supported and well taken care of. Their joy for life and positive energy were truly contagious for all of us. I thoroughly enjoyed the combination of yoga and flying for women. The team spirit during these days was absolutely unbeatable, and we all not only expanded our flying skills but also grew together as a group."
“I attended the Sky Sisters Piedechinche with the goal to improve my skills and confidence as a pilot. I had some Thermaling experience and was able to build up my bump tolerance, work on confidence, improve my active piloting, and was lucky enough to do a triangle and xc to a new LZ. The guides, Summer and Moni, and participants were so supportive during the entire trip for all flights- sled rides, short thermal flights, bomb outs, and personal best experiences. All were celebrated! I loved pairing yoga with flying and Lauren picked beautiful flows and sequences for each day. The trip was a highlight in my flying progression.”
