Disabled Divers International paid Crystal Divers Bali a visit on the 30th April 2010, to educate senior IDC Staff Instructor Else Poulsen about teaching disabled divers. Else had some extra help though from all the Instructor candidates currently at Crystal Divers who were very willing to be put through their paces and learn the skills necessary to properly assist disabled diving students.

"Crystal Divers would like to thank Flemming Thyge and Disabled Divers International for a very enjoyable yet educational day and would recommend the course to anyone who is interested in working with disabled divers", said Else Poulsen. DDI is proud to announce that our very own Else Poulsen is now a fully qualified DDI instructor, and that DDI courses is now available in Bali.

DDI is a non profit organization which aims to promote, develop and conduct disabled scuba diving programs for professional and non professional students. It is a common misconception that the disabled cannot dive whereas in fact with the proper support and educational it can be a fun and extremely beneficial activity.
