PADI Mermaid Lessons
PADI Mermaid Certifications are a terrific way to be safe and certified in the water. I will help you perfect your mermaid skills. We will work on the flow of your mermaid swim to make you performance ready, as well as focusing on water safety and how you can always be your safest in your mermaid tail. We also touch on fun things like bubble rings! The PADI Mermaid certification is for both professional Mermaids, looking to take it to the next level, and hobbyist Mers who just want to learn some new tricks and water safety. If you have any questions, please reach out. I would be happy to answer them.
