Coastal Paragliding Course

Charles sellier 

Originally from Finistère, Charles grew up where the wind often blows straight on, where the weather changes faster than expected… and where butter is, of course, salted (otherwise, it’s not really butter). For nearly two years, he explored the Breton coastline by paraglider, from Finistère to the beginning of the Côtes-d’Armor, learning to fly with the ocean beneath his feet and the humility that comes with it.

Coastal flying is something Charles knows well: breezes that are sometimes generous, sometimes a little too enthusiastic, stunning cliffs, and that salty sea air that stings your cheeks at take-off. Here, we’re not talking about “easy” conditions, but about formative ones—ideal for learning to observe, anticipate… and accept that Brittany sometimes makes the decisions for you. It’s precisely in this area that he chose to set up the base camp for the Coastal Flying course. A terrain he is particularly fond of, and that he enjoys sharing with seriousness, pedagogy, and a healthy dose of Breton good humor.

With Charles, flying is safe, progress is constant, and there’s always room for a laugh. Always calm, never stressful, he knows how to teach without taking himself too seriously. A solid instructor, a discreet smile, and a simple philosophy: if it flies, great; if it doesn’t, we’ll still share a good moment (and probably a galette).
