New, and Nervous!

[AnyaPetrova]

Hello All! I'm new to both the boards and scuba diving! So new...that I haven't even been in the water with equipment on yet! LOL. Tomorrow is my first lesson through Padi, and I absolutely can't wait! But...I'm also a little nervous, and would LOVE any advice! There's just so much to learn, and I want to do it right / safely!

No Worries ... everything will be good & you'll be fine, everyone worries before they start and once you see how easy it is you'll love it! Good luck.

Relax...

You are going to have fun...

The training is a piece of cake and it is fun!

Once you get in the water, you will be having some much fun you will forget you are learning. Just listen to what the instructor has to say and if you dont get something....ask them to explain it until you do. You will do well!!

Welcome aboard. Take it slow and easy, don't push yourself to do things that are too uncomfortable. With time and practice it all becomes natural and easy/

Congrats! You will have a great time. It sounds like you are off to a great start by wanting to be safe.

Nothing wrong with being a little nervous. Of course it will probably melt away as you become comfortable in the gear and in the water.

All classes tend to be a little stressful.Just pay attention to the instructions,think before you react,and breathe in and out slowly and completely.Dont skip breathe.When your heart is pounding that can be challenging.With practice you will start relaxing and enjoying yourself.10 year old kids get certified so you should do fine.Remember your training skills you have learned,and continue to advanced diver and maybe cavern or rescue.The more you know,and go,the better you will be.Good luck!
