in Central New York

 

 

 

Thank you for visiting this web page. My name is Reza Gorji and if you visited this page,you are interested in learning scuba diving or perhaps want to advance your diving knowledge by taking some advanced and specialty diving courses. I am an instructor with the National Association of Diving instructors ( NAUI (NAUI# 39647)) and Scuba Diving International SDI/TDI (SDI, TDI #7288) two of the most respected certification agencies. When you get certified, you will have the opportunity to dive with comfort and safety. You card will have no expiration date and it will be honored world wide. More importanly, you will be a safe, well educated diver.

 

My Instructor ratings:

NAUI scuba courses are some of the finest and most comprehensive scuba diving courses a diver can take. I am real proud to be a NAUI instructor as I believe NAUI instructors to be some of the finest in the world.

" To earn the coveted NAUI Instructor rating our Instructor candidates undergo a grueling leadership training program requiring extensive diving knowledge and superior water skills. At every step they are challenged to make independent and correct decisions and value judgments regarding the level of risk inherent in all types of diving situations." (NAUI Website)

NAUI's motto: "dive saftey thru education" is a wonderful idea to keep in mind when training to be a scuba diver. "Scuba diving is an adventure sport, and as such, it has inherent risks. NAUI understands this. We also understand that the only way to minimize risk is to maximize education. There are many scuba certification programs available today, but there is only one that can be called a scuba education program. And, education is the true NAUI difference." (NAUI Website)

TDI and SDI are also know for their innovative methods of teaching SCUBA. They are also very progressive in diver training.

I am located in Syracuse, NY and can train you to be a competent, comfortable and SAFE diver. I offer many NAUI courses listed on the website as well as SDI/TDI Courses (Scuba Diving International, Technical Diving International).

 

I have over 22 years diving experience in varied environments and conditions. I have not been everywhere and done everything related to diving but those things are "on the list."

You do not have to be NAUI certified to take continuing education courses with NAUI.   College credit is possible with many of NAUI courses!!!  Please inquire.
