Overpriced by 30% compared to rest of the schools in DFW area, poor customer service, incompetent instructors, horrible experience. Complete waste of time! "Instructors" are retirees who went into teaching scuba diving, so they can afford diving around the world (per his own words). You get treated as if they paid you for something, not the other way around. As far as competence I am 5'9,240 weightlifter - negatively buoyant,different than 99.9% of the the students they ve encountered. I have dived before (I went to Scuba Adventures for certification), on twice the depth we did in the swamp they train you at, and never had any problems or complaints from other instructors, to come here and some "instructor" to tell me I need to work more ( more than the 4 days) on my buoyancy, considering I had no issues with that it just take me different amount of time to adjust due my negative buoyancy!
I am outraged by that school and the instructor I encountered,who is working mostly with kids and apparently have never seen a negatively buoyant person - a "sinker" as they call us at the other places. On top of that that guy makes up rules and exercises which are NOT required by SDI. This is why I wasted over $500 and 4 day of training??? Unbelievable. And this is for Open Water Certificate.Can't imagina what s going to be if you want to go higher with these people. One advice to avoid frustration - don't go there!
