PADI DPV Certification Dives.  Mike Kohler and Jamey Reasoner with myself

I went for my certification dives in the DPV Diver Propulsion Vehicle PADI certification at Scuba Ranch in Terrell, TX. I had an amazing instructor in Mike Kohler, assisted by his dive buddy Jamey Reasoner. The class is incredible. The 2 tank dives were thorough and fantastic. Whatever issue came up, they are amazing problem solvers. I highly recommend this course as instructed by Mike through International Scuba and PADI.

I scuba dive in the 70's and 80's and then took about 30 years off. Decided to get recertified by PADI and chose International Scuba here in Carrollton because of the great reviews. I learned a lot and hopefully corrected some bad habits. The instructor Leora and Dive Master Matt were excellent. Class size 5 with 2 instructors including Matt. They were very accommodating with my open water dive as I had a conflict. Would highly recommend them and look forward to diving with them.

After 4 years of having my open water certification, my husband talked me into giving Advance and Nitrox a try.

We had our 3 kids certified in OW by ScubaToys across two different weekends about 2 months apart…read more(our 13-yr old twins went one weekend and our 15-yr old did her checkout dives about 2 months later) in 2022. The weekend that our twins went, the temps were somewhere in the 40s. the visibility wasn't that great for both weekends. It was a little bit warmer when our older daughter went. Both of those weekends, it was 2 young people paired up with a dive master or instructor the whole time. Never did I see a dive where they were not paired up with an experienced diver. The instructor was a police officer who regularly dives in the trinity river (and other water ways) for search and recovery dives (not the same one in the recent incident). He was in the water all the time. I felt that the instructions were clear and safety was always a top priority. There were at least 2 diver masters and the instructor both weekends. The classes including DMs and instructor was about 9-10 people. There was an covered platform with stairs to the top deck where I was able to watch my girls dive. Never did I worry about their safety. The only complaint I could make about Scuba Toys, is that I felt like their organization of the classes could be better. I don't remember all the details but I remembered we had some problems with getting them all the forms they needed (physician sign off, medical questionnaires, liability waivers, etc) and could have been handled easier. Seemed like we sent them but the scuba shop could find them or something. In addition, we have bought some gear from them, then bought some gear from other resources.

I'm going on a cruise real soon and want to be able to take a scuba excursion, so being certified has become a must. I'm so glad I found Frank. I needed this to happen in a short time and while it's warm in the Caribbean, it's not so much here in North Texas. Frank accommodated my need to be certified quickly with enthusiasm. And he heated his pool up to 86 degrees on a 35-degree day for the occasion. He's not going to cut corners, he teaches in a way so that his students learn. And he's going to do what it takes to get you there even if your request has winter temps associated with it... he will be joining you for the lake dive in frigid waters. And I'm now certain I'm going to head into deeper waters with confidence and have that extra enthusiasm I earned, knowing I'm going to get it right.

I completed my Open Water scuba diving certification here, and I highly recommend the Scuba Shop!…read moreThey try to keep class sizes small (we had 6 students in our class) so nobody gets lost in the crowd.Rick and Dawn are awesome co-instructors who are super knowledgeable and make you feel safe and comfortable. They demonstrate everything clearly and explain each skill thoroughly, citing real-world examples based on their own experience as divers and active members of the diving community. Rick is a wealth of knowledge (on diving, dive skills, dive gear, you name it!) And provided all of us with excellent instruction as well as feedback. Dawn offers useful, alternate explanations--in addition to one-on-one reinforcement for students who need more time or assistance in fully understanding and mastering a skill. They don't gloss over anything, and they spend as much time as the group needs in order for each student to feel comfortable, which I really appreciate. Having the two of them also allows individual students to have that valuable one-on-one time with Dawn while Rick continues his instruction, so students that need more time on a skill don't feel like they're holding up the group or feel embarrassed like they are the center of attention when the rest of the group is ready to move on. I'm already thinking about what scuba diving courses I want to take next! I highly recommend the Scuba Shop for those who are looking for more than just getting certified and "getting it over with." Rick and Dawn's scuba classes are for those who want to feel well-prepared and truly confident in their skills as a diver.
