When I booked the Discover Scuba course in early 2016 it was with some personal trepidation, but I booked it as a b’day present for my husband Paul, who’d done Scuba lessons at Uni (some 35 years earlier !) but had run out of money before he could complete the final Open Water dive. I could never have imagined at that stage what an enormous sense of achievement I would feel at the end of the full Open Water Diver course which we subsequently booked with Steve Clement. I’m still buzzing several days after finishing it ! We found the course to be so much more than simply learning a set of new skills & getting to grips with unfamiliar equipment. It truly has been a voyage of discovery, and we learnt so much about ourselves along the way which will stay with us long after the course. Steve and his family (and Steve & Janet Prior) are supportive of each other and this support is shared throughout the whole course and beyond, with students. Of course there are the PADI standards to adhere to, and skills to learn, but above all it’s the genuine desire to share the joy of scuba which shines through Steve’s teaching. As soon as we descended into the depths at Stoney Cove for our Open Water dive (again, a pretty scary thought for someone like me who hates the dark) I felt a sense of calm. It was a very special, very serene experience, but always safe in the knowledge that instructors are by your side, literally holding your hand the whole time. If you’re having doubts about whether to sign up for one of the courses, speak to Steve – he won’t do a hard-sell job on you, and is there to support you all the way. Take it from me, a lifelong nervous Nelly: If I can do it, anyone can !
We did our Discover Scuba course at the weekend (bought as a b'day present for my husband) and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Steve Clements was calm, patient and encouraging throughout. I was apprehensive about the theory, and remembering everything, but once I was in the water I found that a lot of it just fell into place. Thanks so much for the intro Steve. I can thoroughly recommend.
