Twinset. Sidemount. Technical foundations. Skills coaching. We focus on control, configuration, decision-making and team capability before depth becomes the objective.
You do not need to arrive with a perfectly defined course plan. Tell us what equipment you dive, what qualification you currently hold, what is working, and what is not. We can then build the right training around you.
Learn to configure and dive a manifolded twinset with control. We work on balance, trim, buoyancy, propulsion, long-hose procedures, valve drills, gas management and the habits needed for later decompression training.
Discuss Twinset Training
Build a sidemount system around the diver rather than simply clipping cylinders on. Configuration, cylinder position, trim, propulsion, gas management and repeatable equipment handling are central to the programme.
Discuss Sidemount Training
Already qualified but still fighting your shutdowns, trim, propulsion, stage handling, ascent control or planning? We can strip the problem back, identify the cause and rebuild the skill without forcing you through another full certification.
Talk About Coaching
A technical certification records that you met a standard at a point in time. It does not mean every skill stayed sharp, that every part of your original course clicked, or that your current equipment is helping you.
We regularly work with divers who already hold the qualification they need but still feel that something is missing. The goal is not to judge the previous training. It is to establish exactly where you are now and make the diving work.
If you are unsure whether you need a course, coaching, a configuration change or simply more structured practice, start with an assessment day.
Perfect-looking skills are useful, but technical diving also requires divers to recognise what is happening, manage the resources available to them and solve the right problem in the right order.
Buoyancy, trim and propulsion create the stable platform everything else is built on.
We develop divers who can operate as part of a team rather than as three individuals doing the same dive.
Gas, equipment, time, decompression capacity and the other divers around you are all resources.
Not every failure is equally urgent. Technical divers need to understand what must be solved first and why.
Once the platform is reliable, the wider Van Overbeek Technical team can continue the journey into decompression, helium, deeper technical diving, CCR, wreck and professional levels.
We do not run this page around a fixed public course calendar. Technical training and coaching are arranged around the diver, instructor availability, site conditions, the programme and — where relevant — the team.
Message us with your current qualification, approximate number of dives, configuration, what you want to improve, and your preferred dates. We will propose the most sensible route.
