Coogeeman, you send the young woman to me and I'll teach her to swim (no charge). Then you can teach her to dive.
Seriously, the local shop I worked at required swimming skills and comfort in the water for an intro dive. It sounds like you do too, only the shop itself failed you on that. When I was certified back in the dark ages we were required to demonstrate swimming and treading water skills both in the pool and in the ocean before getting certified.
