Learning to dive  should not only be fun, but safe. We are not the drive-thru of diving training. We offer more classes, more one-on-one coaching, more pool sessions, more open water dives. We won't leave you with heart-burn, regretting your decision to dive!. Instead, you'll "over-learn" basic self-help skills so your reactions to stressful situations are automatic leaving you to safely enjoy this new sport.



Our program is designed to help you feel safe and comfortable diving anywhere in the world. We provide personalized private or small group sizes (4 students per Instructor, max), plenty of pool practice time, and plenty of dive time on your open water sessions.

 

Pool sessions are planned to enable new students to practice basic snorkel and scuba skills to perfection, for increased safety and comfort during the open water sessions.  Training is Performance-Based, so we take you to the open water only when we both feel you are comfortable and ready.  You won't feel pushed or rushed in our program!



Our open water sessions are conducted at any combination of these local dive sites: Alki Point (in west Seattle), Edmonds Underwater Park, and Keystone Jetty (on Whidbey Island) or a graduation boat trip in South Puget Sound, OR we can help you arrange to complete your dives on your next Tropical Vacation!

​

We conduct at least Five open water dives on these excursions to give new divers diverse experiences and make them comfortable with a number of local dive sites. All SCUBA equipment is included in the tuition cost, though students will be required to provide their own snorkeling equipment and Student Training Kit, all available for purchase from us.



Several Add-on class options are also available during Open Water training.  Drysuit training is our most popular class add-on, as local Northwest waters can be fairly "brisk and refreshing" (45-50 degrees F).   We are one of the only dive schools in the Seattle-area offering drysuit diving to entry level divers, and have a full size selection so we can fit just about anyone.  You don't have to be cold!

 

Another option is Enriched Air Nitrox.  "Nitrox" is oxygen-enriched air, and can offer significant safety advantages to dives.  Divers using Nitrox typically can stay down longer, and feel less tired after dives.
