Fundamentals

Refine the core skills that separate good divers from great ones. These workshops and programs focus on buoyancy mastery, propulsion techniques, decompression theory, and dive planning, the foundation for safe, efficient diving at any level.

Becoming a Better Diver

3 days

A personalised skills assessment and targeted improvement programme. Three days of honest evaluation, specific in-water drills, and a written development roadmap. Not a standard course, but built entirely around your gaps.

Fundamentals

Buoyancy & Trim

2 days

Neutral buoyancy that is actually neutral. Horizontal trim that is actually horizontal. Two days of targeted in-water drills on the skills most divers have been practising incorrectly for years, with real feedback after every session.

Fundamentals

Dive Computers and Decompression Management

1 to 2 days

What your dive computer is actually computing: Bühlmann ZHL-16C, RGBM, VPM, gradient factors, GF99, and Surface GF. How to configure it, how to read it, and how to use it to make genuinely safer decisions in the water.

Fundamentals

Dive Planning

2 days

Unplanned dives are managed by luck. This course builds the planning process serious divers use before every dive: gas volumes, turn pressures, contingency thinking, and team communication from a 20m reef to a staged deco dive.

Fundamentals

Introduction to Decompression Theory

1 day

Understand decompression as a physical process happening in your body on every dive, not as rules to follow. Tissue compartments, dissolved-gas models, gradient factors, and how to read what your dive computer is actually telling you.

Fundamentals

Propulsion Workshop

2 days

The kick cycles that let you move precisely in any direction, without silting, without fighting current, without disturbing anything below you. Six techniques drilled in the water until they are clean, with real feedback after every session.
