[Heyhey Dive Review] AIDA specializes in free diving in Taipei, and explore the underwater world with the instructor

The origin of the brand name of Heyhey Dive is very cute. Since the coaches of Heyhey Dive all have dark and healthy complexions, it was originally "We are all dark". As the volume became louder and louder, they felt that the name needed to be simplified, so they came up with an idea and directly Translated from English to "black", Heyhey Dive free diving was born.

Founder Xiao Hei also talked to UNN. In addition to this meaning, Heyhey means laughing and making people feel happy and relaxed, while Heyhey Dive means diving happily and relaxedly. He also hopes that this original intention is integrated into the name. UNN now makes me laugh every time I think of Heyhey Dive!

Heyhey Dive Taichung studio is located near Taichung's indoor diving resort Dicube. Once inside Heyhey Dive, large glass floor-to-ceiling windows are paired with wooden pallets and a pot of green plants. UNN has only a chill feel. The high-ceiling and bright space is home to A large soft sofa and a few lazy chairs, and fins and masks decorated on the wall directly bring you into the atmosphere of free diving.

When learning freediving at Heyhey Dive in Taichung, the subject part is conducted in a very relaxing space, and very relaxing music is played during class. Xiaohei told UNN that because the most important core of free diving is actually "relaxation", he also hopes to create a teaching environment so that students can have the same feeling. The technical part of Taichung Heyhey Dive will be divided into three days of courses at the North District Sports Center and Diving Cube.

Xiaoliuqiu is where the flagship store of Heyhey Dive is located. It is less than ten minutes by bike from the disembarkation point of Baisha Port. With a white container house and a walking path decorated with small stones and green plants next to it, Xiaoliuqiu Heyhey Dive is quite island-like. holiday style.

The biggest feature of Heyhey Dive Xiaoliuqiu flagship store is the swimming pool. The long and narrow swimming pool provides classes and training for students who want to come to Xiaoliuqiu to experience the fun of diving. Whether it is flat diving or holding their breath, there is a great environment for students to feel free to break through themselves.

The subject class is held at the Heyhey Dive Taipei Studio, located at the foot of Yangming Mountain, with a hillside behind and a river in front, in a quiet and pleasant alley, a suburban environment in the city.

There is a bus stop next to Soochow University in a 5-minute walk. If you come to learn free diving with your friends and want to take a walk, you can walk to Shilin MRT Station in about 20 minutes, and you can also visit the night market. If you are driving there, There is a whole row of public parking spaces at the door, and all modes of transportation are convenient!

Heyhey Dive coaches interact and talk with students just like friends. The class style is relaxed and relaxed. Despite this, the coach is very attentive and repeatedly confirms whether the students understand or have any questions.

The instructor said that because the most important key to free diving is to learn to "relax", Heyhey Dive hopes that every student will be completely relaxed from the beginning of the course. Seeing that everyone lies directly on the sofa, you can see how relaxed they are.

The technical course lasts for 3 days, including confined water and open water courses. The confined water course is held at Shilin Qiangang Swimming Pool, while the open water course is held at Longdong or Taichung Diving Cube depending on the season.

UNN felt that the free diving course at Heyhey Dive was full of laughter and joy. The instructor guided very patiently and paid careful attention to each student, but did not teach in a rigid way.

This is something UNN likes very much, because it goes back to the original intention of self-diving, "relaxation." After all, self-diving allows you to swim freely in the deep blue sea without wearing any equipment. If you learn in a high-pressure environment and are not prepared physically and mentally, even if you get the certificate, it will not be a good start.

Open water courses will be held in Longdong Bay from May to September. The course covers static apnea, flat diving, rope diving, flat diving, bending into the water, diving to a depth of 5 meters, underwater rescue, etc.

It’s worth mentioning that Heyhey Dive has specially arranged a very beautiful dive site for lessons. There is a small beach under the water, surrounded by reefs, and there are so many fish. Xiao Hei said that this was the result of his one-year stay in Long Cave. I just found the diving spot. After all, students come to class hoping to see the beautiful underwater ecology, and at the same time, it can also give students more motivation to dive. UNN was immediately attracted by the photos. If you want to take the exam in the summer Students taking the photo, don’t miss it!

In addition, Heyhey Dive has specially cooperated with Oufkos, a beautiful and comfortable cafe in Longdong, so that students can take classes in an excellent environment.

In the hot summer, after diving in Long Cave, you can have such a comfortable place to rest, wash up, and eat (at your own expense). Otherwise, after being exposed to the sun in Long Cave in summer, you really don’t know where to go when you want to rest at noon.

Heyhey Dive also provides free re-examination for one year. There are many friends around UNN who cannot obtain their self-dive license in one go. "After-sales service" like this is really important! As long as you work hard to participate in group training and grasp the essence of relaxation, you can definitely get a diploma in one year.

The founder Xiao Hei said that he hopes that he is not the only one to see the beauty of the world, so he likes to invite people to go abroad for free diving together. He once directly asked on the Internet if anyone wanted to go diving in the Philippines together, but he did not expect that someone actually signed up. , so I directly made an appointment with them about which flight to take and would wait for them at a certain port, and a casual diving trip took place.

But not all people are so casual, and may even have doubts, so they began to think about doing this in a systematic way, so that everyone can play more safely and their families will feel more at ease.

So Heyhey Dive began to plan a systematic diving tour. From transportation, accommodation, planned dive sites, and itinerary activities, everything was properly arranged, and everyone! It also comes with a professional photographer, which is super important, right? ! Don’t worry even if there is only one person, you will definitely be proud of taking beautiful photos.

You can also take this opportunity to meet friends who may be able to travel together in the future. Xiao Hei cutely said to UNN, "I will also control the number of people I take out, and everyone will definitely have a good time."
