Hello!
Learning so scuba dive actually doesn't take all that long! It is possible to get certified and learn the basics in just a few weeks. The most important thing is to practice! Buoyancy control is very important, not only for personal safety, but also to protect the environment you are diving in. I have had lots of training - I was even an instructor for many years! I have also had lots of practice! I love diving! I have been diving for about 30 years now (wow - that's hard to imagine!).
Have you ever tried it?
Cheers,
Robin
