Learning to scuba dive with RAY SCUBA DIVING is an incredible adventure! Your path to breathing underwater is accomplished in three exciting phases: 1. Knowledge Development - Learn the lingo. During the first phase of your Open Water Diver scuba certification, you develop an understanding of the basic principles of scuba diving. You learn things like how pressure affects your body, how to choose the best scuba gear and what to consider when planning dives. You briefly review what you have studied with your instructor and take a short quiz to be sure you're getting it. At the end of the course, you'll take a longer quiz that makes sure you have all the key concepts and ideas down. Your Instructor will review anything that you don't quite get until it's clear. Select the knowledge development option you prefer: A. Start right now and learn to scuba dive online with Ray Scuba Diving via eLearning at your own pace—anytime, anywhere (great for busy schedules) B. Attend a scheduled scuba diving class at Ray Scuba Diving (great for meeting new friends and dive buddies) 2. Confined Water Dives - Scuba Skills Training. This is what it's all about – diving. You develop basic scuba skills by scuba diving in a pool or body of water with pool-like conditions. Here you'll learn everything from setting up your scuba gear to how to easily get water out of your scuba mask without surfacing. You'll also practice some emergency skills, like sharing air or replacing your scuba mask. Plus, you may play some games, make new friends and have a great time. 3. Open Water Dives - Locally or on Vacation. After your confined water dives, you and the new friends you've made continue learning during four open water dives with your Ray Scuba Diving Instructor at a dive site. This is where you fully experience the underwater adventure – at the beginner level, of course. You may make these dives around one of the quaarys or at a more exotic destination while on a Ray Scuba Diving group holiday.
