Reviews:


“I have only the best to say about my experience with Chris at Michigan FreeDiving. No matter the concern (weather, logistics, gear, supplies, or content/knowledge) we found him to be within reach and incredibly supportive. Even more helpful was the sense of safety and equanimity with which Chris approached his lessons. By encouraging everyone to enjoy and appreciate their current diving ability it seems we all progressed more effectively and with more joy. Very grateful to know such a qualified teacher is so close to us in Michigan.”


“Review of my RAID certification training with Christopher Morey.
I don’t believe I can be any happier with my experience training under Chris Morey. From his quick and direct communication and helping hand while we studied for our tests and exam (especially the tech support!) , to the informative and passionate pre-training meeting, to the training and dives themselves, my partner and I really felt like Chris was the epitome of everything we hoped for from an instructor/teacher. We had an excellent time with our first train and can’t wait to go diving with Chris in the future. A new path is ahead of us and we’re very grateful Christopher Morey is paving our way. Five star review, would and will highly recommend.”
