About Us

Ron Toran grew up in New York before moving to Boston, MA, to earn his Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration at Northeastern University. After moving to Texas, he continued his education at Texas State University, earning a Master’s Degree in Education. He taught second graders for 25 years, building the skills he would eventually use as an accomplished paramotor instructor.

Ron’s passion for flight started at an early age when his grandfather brought him to local Blue Angels and Thunderbirds airshows. Ron’s interest in aviation grew over the years from his childhood days with model airplanes hanging from his ceiling to building and flying radio-controlled airplanes as a teenager. Where most paramotor instructors are pilots first, his journey started in teaching before he became a pilot and eventually a paramotor instructor.

Teaching paramotor students since 2015, Ron believes that a program with a structured curriculum that includes classroom instruction and guided skill development can produce the safest, most proficient paramotor pilots. He’s proud to have taught paramotor pilots who have gone on to become instructors at some of the most well-known paramotor schools across the country.

Today, Ron lives in Texas with his daughters, Anastasia and Jenny. In his free time, he enjoys flying paramotors and other ultralight aircraft.
