Cave Workshops<\/span><\/h1>\n

Cave workshops focus on a specific skill or environment in which you are already certified, but want to improve. They will be more structured than mentoring or coaching, but less rigid than a formal course. Most workshops will NOT offer certification; rather, your reward is the knowledge and experience.<\/p>\n

To see our full list of workshops, visit here<\/a>, as this page is cave-only workshops.<\/p>\n

If you’re interested in any of our Workshops, please email us<\/a>.

Some GUE Leading EDGE Performance Workshops are large, regional events, often with a draw of divers from beyond that region.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

This workshop will feature at least eight GUE instructors from around the world, each of whom is an expert in recreational, technical, and\/or cave diving. As an added bonus, Gareth Lock from the Human Factors Academy will be joining us and providing one of our evening presentations. The event is hosted by GUE-Seattle and GUE-BC.<\/p>\n

Current Instructor Roster Includes:
\nGuy Shockey – Tech (British Columbia)
\nKarim Hamza – Tech (California)
\nGraham Blackmore – Tech (UK\/Asia)
\nMeredith Tanguay – Cave (Florida\/Hawaii)
\nLiz Tribe – Fundamentals (British Columbia)
\nAlex Adolfi – Fundamentals (Seattle)
\nJoakim Hjelm – Fundamentals (British Columbia)
\nKelly Colwell – Fundamentals (Nevada)
\nMichael Puz – Fundamentals (Philippines)
\n… and maybe more!<\/p>\n

During the GUE Leading EDGE Performance Workshop, GUE divers will have an opportunity to work on everything from propulsion techniques, to bottle rotations, to S-drills, to team skills. We have designed a schedule that includes classroom sessions to update you on the latest dive planning strategies, as well as field drills and coaching dives to polish your diving techniques.<\/p>\n

For Fundamentals-level students looking to upgrade provisional or recreational status to the next level, this workshop is the perfect opportunity to improve the skills required to earn your next qualification. For technical and cave divers, this is a chance to improve critically important technical diving skills (such as failure management) under the supervision of an expert. This workshop will help us to ensure that we\u2019re among the best-prepared and most up-to-date divers in the world.<\/p>\n

There are a limited number of spaces available. If you’re interested in the Performance Workshop or any other Workshop, please email us<\/a> immediately to secure your spot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
