Just finished my first class last night!
Facility is brand new at Scuba Pros of Arizona, class is taught by Paul Wagonseller (funny guy).
We were a class of 7: 5 men, 2 women, the very first class at that location in fact. We began with an outline of the course, what we would do and need, and when. Paul introduced us to all the gear of scuba, where it all goes, what it's for, how to use it. He also touched on the difficulties we could encounter while diving, the dive charts, how important it is to use the dive log, and had us watch some SSI safety videos. He also talked to us about the local dive spots, and some local laws regarding divers, specifically the dive flag. The class was about 2 1/2 hours long with a 5-10 minute break in the middle.
Next one is tomorrow night, can't wait to get boots, gloves, and suit fitted! Gonna be a bit o cash but I can't wait to get in the water!
Here's a video of the place!

I hope to keep this thread updated after each class so other people like me can understand a bit how my program went and what they might expect.
