Adaptive Scuba

In this episode hosts Briera and David sit down to talk about adaptive scuba, which is one way that persons with disability can experience the wonders of the undersea universe. Rosemary is an experienced adaptive diver and board member of the non-profit Therapeutic Scuba Institute (TSI) and director of TSI’s Camp Open S.E.A.S. (Science Education and Adaptive Scuba) where youth with disability learn about marine ecology and ocean conservation while diving in the Florida Keys. Jazz is an adaptive-diver-in-training and keen environmentalist, excited to trade the sounds of the city for the sea’s serenity. Throughout the episode Rosemary and Jazz introduce us to the benefits that scuba provides to them, and also how diving allows them to return the favor and benefit the oceans in return. Join us on this journey to learn about the reciprocal exchange of health between divers and the ocean they dive in.
