Dive Instruction

I am a PADI/DSAT instructor, and offer a variety classes on a limited basis. I teach group classes for the Presidio of Monterey Defense Language Institute, so time restricts my teaching to individual or very small groups (2-3). E-mail me for a price list and schedule if you are interested. If my schedule doesn't work with yours, I can give you contact information for a wide range of great local instructors, both technical and recreational.
