PADI - Philippines Diving

This is the first dive course I took in 1998 at Scubaworld, Makati, Philippines.  The course entails classroom sessions and pool sessions where you learn to use scuba equipment,  learn proper breathing techniques and various skills underwater.  It is a very fun and enjoyable class because you gain much knowledge from the classroom sessions and you practice diving skills in a 15 feet deep swimming pool. The course took approximately two weeks.   The finale to the course is the “check-out” dive where you incorporate everything you’ve learned from the classroom and pool sessions out in the ocean .
