Now I *really* know what our breath-hold training is good for....

It looks pretty good for me to offer that training weekly 
(probably Wednesday evenings for 90 minutes) here at University, 
starting in February. 
Depending on the people in charge, it might even be possible for 
people outside the school to join and to cover my expenses. I expect 
some interest and I might even be able to pick the most promising 
(OWD is required) divers with the right attitude. 

The pool training itself is planned without SCUBA, but it is one of 
the best tools to improve many diving skills (the students here are 
physically fit already - they come here for outdoor activities like 
climbing). 
Oxygen and all the safety will be provided.

Interestingly enough, dive shops (the agency we were recently arguing 
about) around weren't interested in any co-work and wouldn't even 
answer liability questions. Any money that might build up will be 
used for SCUBA trips and such. Guess what rig I will introduce the 
students to (as an offer, not a must, since that is not a SCUBA 
class).

You live in the Golden area? In the case that this becomes an open 
training, and that you're ecstatically interested, or you just 
have questions about it, please email me. 
If this gets screwed up (not very likely) I'll find another pool.

Claudia
