Our refresher course is designed for divers looking to refresh their skills and knowledge before their next underwater adventure. Whether you’ve been out of the water for a while or simply want to ensure your diving proficiency, this course provides comprehensive training to help you dive confidently and safely.
This PADI course consists of two main components: online theory and practical skills. The online segment, known as ‘ReActivate Touch’, allows you to revisit the basics of diving through interactive videos and quizzes on your PC or tablet. This prepares you for the practical session, where you’ll practice essential skills in one of our heated swimming pools or at our exclusive lake at Mercers Country Park.
During the pool session, which lasts 2-3 hours, our experienced instructors will guide you through exercises to ensure you are comfortable and proficient. These practical skills include buoyancy control, mask clearing, and other key diving techniques. Upon completion, you’ll receive a new certification e-card to confirm your refreshed status.
Training is available at several convenient locations including Soho, London; Surrey & Berkshire; North London, Herts and Bucks; S.E. London & Kent; Brighton & Hove; and Oxfordshire.
Each location features heated pools for comfort, or you can opt for training at our exclusive lake in Mercers Country Park.
This course is ideal for certified divers who have been inactive for 6-12 months or longer. It is particularly beneficial for those feeling apprehensive about returning to diving or seeking to polish specific skills before their next dive.
We provide personalised instruction from experienced dive professionals, ensuring you receive the support and guidance needed to regain your diving confidence. Our variety of locations offers flexibility to fit your schedule, and our state-of-the-art facilities ensure a comfortable and effective experience.
Additionally, we include a free log book worth £10 with every course, adding extra value to your training. Our commitment to safety and quality makes us the preferred choice for divers looking to refresh their skills.
