Hello and welcome to my website. My name is Sandy Shaw and I am both a PADI Scuba Diving Instructor in addition to a Handicapped Scuba Instructor. Growing up as a child, I was always drawn to the ocean. I went to the shore every chance that I had; even in the winter time ... just hearing the sound of the waves had a very profound effect on me.
I started diving in 2001, getting certified as an Open Water Diver and was so addicted that I never stopped learning about diving, working my way up through the ranks, eventually becoming an instructor. But that wasnÕt enough for me. I found out about Handicapped Scuba International and went through the training to become a handicapped instructor also. It was then that I fully absorbed the thrill of the experience of being able to use diving to assist a handicapped person excel in something that they could not do on land.

Whether it be an able bodies person, or a handicapped person, I want everyone to experience the ocean and see the world from a different point of view. When you see the undersea world close up, you can only be amazed to see the ocean life in its natural habitat ... from a mother Damsel fish protecting her nest to feeling the current when a pair of dolphins swims by or kicking as hard as you can to keep up with a 50 foot whale shark. I have a passion for protecting the ocean and encourage all to do so. My specialties in my dive career start with the children. I believe that children should experience the ocean at a young age. This teaches them to respect and protect our most valuable resource. I also have a passion for underwater photography. Photography helps me bring my experiences to life for those who cannot see what I am privileged to see every time that I dive. And if you too would like to know how to protect our oceans, log onto
ProjectAware.org or

So I hope you enjoy my website and feel free to
Contact Me at any time.
Thanks,
Sandy
