I’m very proud to be able to offer technical dive training through two of the premier technical diving agencies, TDI (Technical Diving International) and NAUI (National Association of Underwater Instructors). Classes are taught all the way from basic nitrox through full trimix. Advanced gas blending and O2 service technician are also available. For more details on individual courses simply click on a link below…..
Technical training is one of the most demanding forms of scuba instruction available, especially if you enter the program without any overhead training. The technical environment can be very unforgiving and it is for this reason that I specialize in small and private classes. I’ll never have more than two students in a technical class, unless training is specifically requested by a team of three. I should also mention that since technical diving involves gases other than air and possible decompression, you’re required to have DAN’s Master Plan dive insurance or it’s equivalent.
