one day, an Indian family came to our diving center
Mum: My 10-year-old daughter would like to join the open water diver course. As I want to bring her to the whale-shark snorkeling excursion, is it possible to complete the course before we join the excursion? Koyuki: Oh shit…! Generally most Indian people can’t swim well though…. can I really complete the course within a short period?

The challenge rather lit a fire in me. I have my own way of ninja to follow… I’d like to prove that i can make her a splendid diver even though she can’t swim now….

Koyuki: Hey, young lady, are you sure you are 10 years old? You are so little! Girl: Yes! I’ve just turned to 10 yesterday!
Firstly, She has to pass the theory….. I was not sure if she could understand all those terms… Dad: No worries, she is very smart.

心配していた学科は見事 一発合格！インド人の頭脳は素晴らしい！
OMG! She made it! She is so clever!
・
・
Secondly, water skill exercise. Koyuki: Are you ready? Girl: of course!!
・
・
こちらは予想通り。。。。
However,,, It was as I expected…
しかし、時間はかかりながらも、彼女は一個ずつゆっくり実技を終了して行った。
・
・
が。
The most difficult part was to jump into the ocean. Jumping off from a height of 1m was too high for the little girl. It was like a “Mission Impossible” for her….
・
このエントリーが全く怖がって出来ず大泣き。。。
・
最後には一緒にジャンプ！
Don’t worry, I’ll be with you the whole time.. You jump, I jump.
・
・
そして、ついに無事コース終了してライセンスゲット！
And finally, she passed all of the skills and got the certification!! I was so happy as if she was my own daughter!
・
・
翌日、ファミリーでジンベイザメシュノーケリングに参加しているはずの彼女をビーチで見かけた。
But on the next day, I saw her on the beach though she was supposed to join the whale-shark snorkeling excursion. I asked her why.
・
・
“Because I am a DIVER!! I decided to see whale-sharks by scuba diving!!” I was very happy and proud of it as an instructor and her smile really paid off!

インストラクターをやっていて良かったと思う瞬間であった。。。。
