XR Foundations is the starting point for Extended Range training — and one of the most valuable courses any diver can take, regardless of experience level. Built as a workshop-style program, it focuses on refining the core skills that define confident, capable diving: buoyancy, trim, propulsion, equipment control, and teamwork.

This course is designed for everyone — from newer divers looking to build strong habits early, to experienced divers who want to refine their technique and eliminate inefficiencies that have developed over time. The goal is the same at every level: stable, controlled, repeatable performance in the water.

Rather than chasing depth or complexity, XR Foundations is about mastery. You’ll develop the ability to stay stable under task load, move efficiently without disturbing the environment, and operate with clear awareness of both your equipment and your team. These improvements don’t just prepare you for technical diving — they elevate every dive you make.

Training can be completed in a wide range of configurations, including single backmount, doubles (twinset), sidemount, and both Semi-Closed (SCR) and Closed Circuit Rebreathers (CCR). The program meets you in the equipment you use — and teaches you how to use it well, with precision and consistency.

Delivered in a controlled, skill-focused environment, XR Foundations emphasizes repetition, feedback, and deliberate practice. You’ll fine-tune your setup, improve your positioning, and build reliable habits that reduce stress and increase confidence on every dive.

XR Foundations isn’t just the first step into technical diving — it’s the course that resets how you dive, giving you the control, awareness, and confidence to keep improving for the rest of your diving life.
