Testimonials

This is going to be a very useful course for new spearos , it will save them a few years of trial and error learning and its amazingly fun and engaging and i highly recommend it

Mr .Rashid Alhamli

For my the course outcome was something that i didn’t expect , being a free diving instructor and a spearo for many year i was amazed with the amount of things i learned from the course especially in relation to spearfishing techniques and gear maintenance

Mr. Yousef Al-khaja

I found the ISA Spearo Level 1 to be a course that develops its students into better free divers and spear fishermen , covering safety and techniques related to both free diving and spearfishing

Mr Zarir Saifeldeen

Tough BUT immensely enjoyable course. Teaches how to spearfish while keeping ourself and others around you safe.. Both for novice and experts..
Thoroughly recommend it.

Dr. Faleh Ali

I am so happy that i didn’t waste the chance to be involved in the ISA course held in dubai . this course completely changed my ideas about free diving and spearfishing. I did a lot of course with big names as instructors and many workshops but unfortunately many of those were not up to my expectations . My experience with ISA is totally different . i enjoyed each minute in the theory , workshop and pool sessions. it changed my whole breath up techniques in addition to teaching me many new spearfishing techniques and things that i have never thought of before . looking forward to doing the advanced level soon
