DIVE COACHING
LESSONS FROM THE DEEP
“THE BEST WAY TO OBSERVE A FISH IS TO BECOME A FISH.”
– Jacques Cousteau
Great coaching dives deep into the ocean of beliefs that hold us back; this is literally what happens in “Lessons from the Deep.”
Lessons from the Deep (LFD) forges a life-changing experience of personal and leadership development by combining scuba diving with coaching. It is the first and only program of its kind that offers participants the opportunity to expand possibilities in their life above water as they expand what’s possible underwater.
Co-created and led by coaches Ellen Fulton and Eric Woodard, LFD experiences are built around the unique goals and perspectives brought forward by each new cohort of participants (as well as what we happen to encounter underwater during a particular program). Participants are the curriculum. Therefore, no two LFD experiences are ever the same.
“THE CURE FOR ANYTHING IS SALT WATER: SWEAT, TEARS, OR THE SEA.”
– Karen Blixen
During the program LFD participants engage virtually in both group and one-on-one coaching while simultaneously learning dive theory through the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) Open Water Diver online course. Every LFD program culminates with the cohort convening for an in-person live dive coaching experience. Participants leave the program as certified PADI Open Water Divers and most importantly, the possibility of life-changing transformation.
“EVERY TIME I SLIP INTO THE OCEAN, IT’S LIKE GOING HOME.”
– Sylvia Earle
