      Monofin

      Děti se postupně učí zacházet s monoploutví zábavnou formou. Lekce je proložená výcvikem, správnou technikou a zábavnými aktivitami jako je například lovení kroužků.

      First confidence, then new movements

      Transformation

      A mermaid tail costume and water games are added to the monofin. More experienced swimmers improve their skills and learn the basics of breath-hold diving.

    NO QUESTION IS TOO SILLY

    Before you
    dive in.

    Is the lesson for boys too?

    Yes. The programme is for girls and boys.

    Can a non-swimmer come?

    Pro SSI Try Mermaid je potřeba samostatně uplavat alespoň 12 metrů. Pokud dítě neumí plavat doporučujeme lekci zvolit jakmile se naučí alespoň základy plavání s pomůcky.

    Může přijít suchý doprovod?

    Ano. Můžete být u bazénu na souši a pozorovat lekci. S sebou si vezměte pohodlné oblečení v kterým vám nebude horko. 

    What do I need to bring?

    Swimwear, a towel and something to drink. You may bring your own mask or swimming goggles.

    From what age?

    SSI Try Mermaid je od 6 let.

    Why dive
    s Divers?

    Individual approach

    One instructor at our school always teaches a sensible number of students. We never push things to the limit and give every student 100% of our attention.

    Professional instructors

    Every one of our instructors and divemasters lives and breathes diving, loves teaching, and passes that enthusiasm on. We are a team of enthusiasts who will draw you into the world of diving.

    Quality training

    We maintain high standards and take no shortcuts. Safety, fun, efficiency and ecology too – that is the foundation of every course we run.

    SSI Certification

    We run certification courses according to SSI standards. SSI certifications are internationally recognised in the diving world.

    Flexible dates

    We will agree on training dates that suit you. Flexibility is a given for us and we always do our utmost to accommodate you.

    Our own 8m diving pit

    We train in the deepest pit in the Czech Republic – at Aquapalace Praha in Čestlice. There we have ideal conditions for pool training, and it shows in our divers.

    We don’t end with the course

    With us you can continue – lectures, training sessions, trips, expeditions, follow-on courses. And on top of that, a 10% discount on equipment and other courses.

    A great community

    Divers Direct is more than a school – it is a community. Lectures, evenings in the clubhouse, experiences that bring people together.

    Experience from all over the world

    Our instructors teach here and abroad – we have know-how from all over the world. We are happy to share it with every one of our students.
