I raised a blind child, guided and taught blind skiers for decades and have worked with blind divers since i became a scuba instructor over twenty years ago. With the rise of standard scuba training agencies getting into the adaptive scuba business i thought it important to bring up a controversial question among some scuba instructors. Can and should a totally blind person who "technically" completes all the confined and open water scuba skills from their standard training agency get an openwater scuba certification that allows them to dive with just one buddy? Your thoughts? We've tried to address this and other adaptive scuba training issues here http://www.diveheart.org/training/get-started/From Jim Elliott, Diveheart Founder & President #safediving#adaptivescubatraining #disabled #handicapped #disabilities #blind#scubatherapy #scubatraining
