START Diving & Training is a non-profit organization that aims to introduce people of all abilities to the underwater world with an emphasis on people with disabilities (including mental health conditions). Born out of the idea that if people with disabilities were able to do something that they never thought possible (scuba diving), that this would provide an opportunity for growth in all aspects of their lives. Our goal is to be able to provide specialized scuba diving training to people with physical disabilities (with or without mental health conditions) and their able-bodied dive buddies.
Brad and Tracy are both certified as PADI and HSA (Handicapped Scuba Association) Instructors. This mean that they have received specialized training allowing them to work with people of all abilities and most ages. From your first breath underwater during a discover scuba diving session through to your DiveMaster certification, our instructors have you covered. Brad and Tracy also offer first aid training though Divers Alert Network.
