Scuba Skills Updates
(Painlessly removing the rust)

Next class dates:
December 7 - Sunday at 2PM
January 10 - Saturday at 5PM

February 8 - Sunday at 1PM

These are GREAT ways to painlessly remove the rust from your dive skills. It doesn't matter when you learned or through what agency. Just bring your logbook, c-card, tables if you use them, and all your gear, plus swimsuit, towel, and positive attitude.

Scuba proficiency is only sustained through practice. (So when you think you might not be as proficient as you should be, that's your brain telling you to take a scuba skills refresher.) We schedule these entertaining courses on a regular basis. We can also do them on request.... You will begin the experience with a brief classroom session, checking to make sure you still understand why we never hold our breath, go too deep, or stay too long. Then we move to our warm comfortable pool to review all the old skills. (And expect a lot more fun than you expect you'll have. We really enjoy teaching these courses.)
