Splash into scuba and snorkeling!
Scuba is self-contained, allowing
you to swim and to breathe underwater like you breathe on land through
an underwater breathing apparatus (tanks filled with air). Snorkeling
is swimming on the surface of water while breathing through a tube
(snorkel).
Body Energy offers courses for both adults and children who love
to be in the water, so the whole family can have fun, excitement
and adventure exploring the exotic life underwater.
Courses
are taught in a safe and highly enjoyable manner to obtain the maximum
fun and discovery for students wishing to explore the beauty of
the underwater world for the first time.
Both group and private courses are available. We can even come
to your own home if you have a pool that has a minimum of eight
feet of water.
Dive trips also can be organized with our very own scuba instructor,
Lee Dickey, as the guide.

Scuba tips:
- Start equalizing just before descending and equalize
every breath when descending. This prevents ear pressure squeeze
issues from arising.
- DO NOT HOLD your breath. This is the cardinal law of scuba diving.
- Good dive buddies should always be withing arms reach
of each other when in the water.
