Sidemount Technical Diving Conference

What Are The 2 Diving Certifications




We became Open Water Scuba Instructors through the Professional Association of Dive Instructors (PADI) over a decade ago with over 200 dives each. Since then we have been actively teaching throughout Arizona, Florida, Mexico, New Jersey, and Southern California. We were both able to earn our PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer rating less than a year after becoming independent instructors and teaching several specialty courses. We average over 150 dives each year. Most of our dives last over an hour.

Can You Dive Deeper With Nitrox


Our passion for diving began over a decade back. After taking our first breaths off a regulator in the water, we knew this was going to become a passion. Before we ever went to the Sea of Cortez, we bought all of our gear! After our first dive weekend, we realized that Mexico was the perfect place for us to go back and dive again. In our first year as divers, we logged over 100 dives in the waters of panama. We became so passionate about diving that our passion was too overwhelming and we wanted to pass it on to others.
