I have a Scuba class starting Tuesday evening Aug 12 at MBT Dive Center on Barrancas Ave. The schedule for the class works like this:

Tuesday, Wednesday evening  -- 6 p.m. to 9ish -- We'll be in Classroom.

In the classroom, we'll learn about scuba gear, how to rig it, the physiology of diving, the no-decompression dive tables, emergency procedures, etc. 

Thursday, Friday evening -- 6 p.m. to 9ish -- We'll be in the Pool.  

There we'll practice our in-water, scuba skills and get ready for open water diving.  

Saturday, Sunday -- 7:30 a.m. to 3ish -- we'll make our open water dives. 

After this, you'll be a certified diver and be ready to explore the the beautiful underwater world all over the planet.

The cost is $199 per person, and this covers all books, all pool fees, all scuba gear required for class except mask, fins, snorkel and booties, and as a student you receive 10% off the cost of anything you purchase in the store. The only additional fee will come if we decide to go to Vortex Springs for one of our open water dives. There's a $19 fee to get into the springs otherwise, there are no additional fees.  

If you're interested in this schedule give me a call or call the shop and ask for the next Scuba class.

I have 40 years diving experience and make my classes fun.

 28 God blessed them and said to them, ... "Rule over the fish of the sea..."

 31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.

My wife (Leslie) had a great time in your weekend class last two weekends and now she wants to get her Nitrox, too.  She said the class was very professional and she felt pretty at ease all of the time.  Thanks,

Harry

Thanks for setting up a class for the Venture Crew kids on short notice Richard.  From what everyone says both on this forum and in person, I am positive that the boys will have a good time and more importantly, learn to scuba the right way....

Clay,

Yeah, she told me she saw you there.  She's pretty psyched to start diving "in the big ocean".  I get back in early September and have 2 weeks off...maybe we can do some spearing.

Thanks Harry. Leslie was a pleasure to have in the class. I try to add some humor to the class to lighten the anxiety a little, and I'm always thankful for someone with a great attitude and personality like Leslie's because it just adds so much to the class for everyone. You should be very proud of her, and I know you are. She showed tremendous determination and overcame some obstacles (her mask stayed completely fogged the first day of openwater dives) to finish the class. She said she wanted to surprise you with learning to dive, but I guess the secret got out   

I told Leslie that you guys are welcome to come back and dive with our classes anytime you wish. It's a great way to get some experience under your belt before jumping out of a boat in the Gulf. I'll be diving this coming weekend with my next class if you'll be back home by then.

Anyway, I look forward to meeting you. Come in the shop sometime, and I'll show you around.

Richard

I can't wait, Glenn. I love it when kids get certified early in their lives, and get to gain a love for the sport and experience it as they grow up. I'm looking forward to seeing you guys Friday, and thank you for giving your time and energy for these kids.
