Rebecca and Ivan Medina, Phoenix AZ: "So glad my husband and I got certified with Mike. His instruction was thorough and clear, and he maintains a sense of calm that a student needs when learning something inherently risky like scuba diving. We never felt rushed, and asking for clarification was always welcomed. We also loved the convenience of having options that worked around our schedule.

If you're interested in learning to scuba dive, I highly recommend Aquatica Diving. It was easy to ask questions and our instructor gave positive feedback. In scuba diving there is a lot to learn, but Mike does a good job of keeping it stress free." - May 2022

K Tillman, Prescott, AZ: "We had a private pool session for our group at our family dive pool. Mike brought all the gear needed so we didn't have to buy anything upfront. He worked with us through 2 pool sessions and was especially helpful and patient in helping my daughter overcome her anxiety about diving and being underwater. He has a lot of patience and took it slow, to help us all develop our comfort. Also had COVID protocols in place, very professional. Highly recommended!" - July, 2020

GJ Hennessy, Phoenix: "Thanks to Mike Thomas for his expertise as a Dive Instructor. He certified my daughter so we could make diving a family event and Mike had a friendly and accommodating approach throughout. I highly recommend Mike to anyone who wants to become a certified diver. His skills and experience are extraordinary and his patience in accommodating student needs and questions is exemplary. Thanks to Mike for his great work in revealing the underwater world to the curious!" - June, 2017

Diana Price, new Open Water Diver: "My first scuba diving trip was to Mexico over fall break 2016 and it was one of the best experiences of my life! I got certified on this trip and after my certification, I was able to go off on my own with my buddy and adventure. We went off the coast of Mexico to an island with thousands of seals on it and we were able to swim with them! I love ASU scuba and I can't wait for the next trip! Thank you!" -October, 2016

Blake Welmann, Hawaii: Awesome. You won't find a better, more knowledgeable instructor. Go diving with them, it will change your life! Thanks for everything! - Spring break, 2014.

T. Selmore, Florida Keys: Mike and his crew were the most professional and fun trainers for our group, they handled everything and made every part of training enjoyable! The experience of working together on the common goal of SCUBA diving was incredibly valuable for all involved, and we finished up with a PADI certification. Ready for the next adventure! - March 2012.
