“Scuba diving relieved my stresses, opened my mind and showed me new perspectives and horizons.”
CO-FOUNDER & LEAD CONSULTANT OF DiveIn™
Simon Lugan is the co-founder of Dive In™ and is accredited as a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer, Bathysmed® Instructor & Ashtanga Yoga Instructor.
Simon's life changed when he started scuba diving in 2011. His introduction to the underwater world provided an escape from the stresses of working in the high tech startup industry and an adventure which prompted growth and newfound confidence in himself. Inspired by the positive changes scuba diving made to his life, Simon decided to pursue a career in the scuba diving industry to share these benefits with others.
It is most meaningful to Simon that each individual, no matter their age, baggage or disability, have the best experience underwater. This was not always possible when working for conventional dive operations.
In 2022, Dive In™ was developed to offer scuba diving as a somatic practice via a framework that emphasises physical and psychological safety, facilitating mindbody wellness and personal growth.
