Description

Adaptive Adventures is teaming up with Denver Divers to offer a SCUBA experience program that will give you a taste of freedom that only SCUBA can give you. This “Try-SCUBA” experience program will include an introduction to SCUBA equipment and a review of safety procedures followed by an underwater experience that will give you a sample of what SCUBA diving is like. Floating weightless in the water with experienced instructors and buddies is a feeling like no other.

Why SCUBA?

Scuba opens up the opportunity for three-dimensional mobility with no barriers or obstacles to work around or navigate for access, creating freedom that cannot be experienced in any other recreational sport. The education and skill development process inherent within the certification system provides ongoing structured benchmarks towards success for the participant. Scuba certification is an excellent opportunity for individuals to engage in small groups while developing lifelong recreational skills and improving the quality of life.

Discover SCUBA Diving (“Try Scuba”) is a specially designed program that will introduce the basic concepts of equipment, techniques, and skills that will allow you the opportunity to breathe underwater! Supervised by skilled professionals, highly trained volunteers and support staff this 2-3 hour experiential program will allow you to learn first-hand the joys of SCUBA Diving. You will also have the opportunity to meet other like-minded individuals who share a passion for new experiences throughout the evening.

SCUBA Certification, after participating in a Try SCUBA experience, those who are excited about the possibilities associated with SCUBA Diving and interested in earning their SCUBA Diver certification will be provide the opportunity to continue their underwater training.
