The GirlDiver Precision Buoyancy Workshop is designed to develop crucial buoyancy skills and explain the concepts behind them. As in all of our courses, we mix theory with practice. We believe it is important to understand the reasons you are learning and applying a skill. You`ll learn the principles of buoyancy. In Open Water classes, it`s common to overweight students to help them stay in one place (on the bottom). Unfortunately, divers leave the course thinking that it`s normal to be overweighted. It really isn`t. This course will teach you how to achieve proper trim to make you streamlined and help you move through the water with minimum effort. Being properly trimmed makes you much more streamlined and will significantly decrease your air consumption, leading to longer dives. The GirlDiver Precision Buoyancy Course is more comprehensive than similar sounding programs. We include the extras that might sound small, but make a big difference.
