Sidemount Technical Diving international

Sidemount Technical Diving Foundation



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 Fart While Diving



Training on our Courses in open water is possible in a safe environment. The lake provides a more stable teaching environment and is less affected by the weather than ocean locations.

Sunset hours are magical times to be on the water. The sun turns to gold and paints the sky with a rainbow of colors that seems almost unbelievable. It is impossible to resist it. You will feel a sense of peace and tranquility as you take in the beautiful sunset colors, clean ocean air and vast sky. A sunset trip can help you relax and allow you to breathe again.
