Yoga Diving is a one of a kind course that teaches divers how to responsibily interact with a coral reef ecosystem. Methods for accomplishing this goal not generally found on other dive courses and holidays include: one to one instruction underwater when needed, group size not exceeding 4 divers, Yoga Diving bouyancy technique, breathing techniques from yoga for dive safety and relaxation, detailed instruction by local experts on nature of the Red Sea, meditation techniqes to focus the mind for diving, dive briefings and instruction that are tailor made for the individual, dive site choice tailor made for the individual, techniques for handling stress and fear underwater. Our dive instructors are trained to the highest standard and follow a holistic philosphy pertaining to ethics and health. Our course includes health considerations for diving and pre dive yoga classes that address fitness needs for diving. When divers are appropriately fit and trained they do not need to walk on reef, hold on to coral and touch the delicate sea bottom, for example. These techniques help divers be able to dive to a level whereby they do not harm the reef. We do not encourage unnecessary use of motorized or noise producing dive equipment. We enter and exit the reef from the most safe point for the reef and the diver evaluating the tides and conditions before deciding entry points. We teach diving looking at the broader ecological context of each dive and emphasize the healing potential of the sea.

Yoga Diving is the first course in the world as far as I know of its kind that prioritizes responsibility in diving from the beginner level up. Our course gives extra training to the skills and knowledge necessary to dive on a coral reef without harming it and with awareness. In addition Yoga Diving is holistic in that it treats each diver and her needs individually and combines yoga techniques with dive training to ensure that divers can navigate the delicate eco system carefully and safely.
In the Yoga Holidays we are offering people through yoga a way of living that is ethical and responsible and that guests can take home with them. We teach yoga in a holistic way enabling the individual to advance on all levels: physically, emotionally and mentally. Our holidays are a life changing experience as people feed back to us time and time again.
