Our teaching philosophy is simple: We are instructors first and mentors second. We are not only instructors, but also dive. We're here to help you with your questions. Although we may not have all the answers, we can direct you to someone who does. We want to improve your diving experience and knowledge. Make sure you don't pay for an instructor rating just to get the rating. Check that the instructor is qualified to teach the diving skills he/she teaches.
This course covers technical sidemount diving skills and equipment. It includes classroom workshops as well as three days of in-water skill development.
Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach: We are divers first and instructors last. We are also instructors and mentors. However, that is secondary to our diving. Too many instructors become too involved in teaching, and end up not diving with students. This is not what we do! We made a commitment to ourselves that we would never do more training diving in a month than what we did for our own dives. We have also committed to spending at least twice the time on our own diving than we do training. This will ensure we are always able to give the best possible dive instruction. Long-term mentoring relationships are also established with our students. Many of our students have become dive buddies and helped us with our surveys and explorations in Florida and Mexico.
Over a decade ago, we became Open Water Scuba Instructors by the Professional Association of Dive Instructors. We have completed over 200 dives. We have been active teachers in Arizona, Florida and Mexico since then. After becoming independent instructors, we were both able earn the PADI Master Scuba Diver Instructor rating in less than one year. We also teach several specialties. Each year, we average more than 150 dives. Our dives usually last more than an hour.
We offer everything you need to learn, from basic diving skills to advanced dives and emergency rescue courses. Contact Sidemount Technical Dive Panama City Beach today!
Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach has been built to serve as a clubhouse. The clubhouse serves as the central point of a divers community and is a place for divers to come together to plan their next adventure. All are invited. The basic idea behind our expansion is that the status of things isn't good enough. We constantly looked at the systems that are used in diving business and asked if they were safe, efficient, and fun.
Sidemount Divers can be enrolled if you are at least 18 and have completed at least 30 logged dives. It is recommended that you have a PADI Enriched air Diver certification.
Don't grab animals, don't hold them for photo ops, don't go for rides on dolphins or turtles, and don't force puffer fish to inflate (it can be fatal to them).
