PADI Seal
Team Experience Program
Ages 8 - 12 - in the pool
A fun and safe way for kids to
get started in diving.
Cost: $150
Includes three Saturday afternoon sessions, the Seal Team activity pak,
and use of all the equipment needed for the program.
This program is conducted over the course of 3 Saturday afternoons.
We will conduct Seal Team Aquamissions 1 - 5 as well as work on snorkeling skills.
We are working on our 2010 Summer Seal Team schedule.
In the PADI Seal
Team program kids learn the basics of scuba diving. In the first Aquamission, Seals learn how to breathe underwater,
learn about their air gauge and practice hand signals. In Aquamission 2, they build on their scuba skills (practicing regulator
skills, becoming more confident divers and great PADI Seal Team buddies). The third Aquamission includes more exciting skills
(mask clearing, octopus breathing and hand signals). In the fourth Aquamission, Seals learn what it's like to to be weightless
(bouyancy) - just like an Astronaut in space! Aquamission 5 is the last step in becoming a PADI Seal Team member. In the last
Aquamission, we review what the Seals have learned, and add some fun surface skills.
Some minimal homework
is required at home prior to each Aquamission. This program is limited to small sizes for maximum safety and participant
comfort, typically 6 - 8 with a staff to student ratio of 2:1 any time our young divers are out of the shallow end.
Participants should have basic swimming ability.
