I’m Martijn Klijnstra. I help divers step into the pro world with positive, hands‑on coaching, small groups, and lots of time in the water. The goal isn’t just passing the IE — it’s being ready to teach for real.
No factories. Just real mentoring to help you grow into a confident dive professional.
Build solid leadership skills with practical, in‑water coaching and real scenarios.
Small groups, clear feedback, skill circuits, teaching practice and IE prep with calm, constructive guidance.
Stand out from day one with add‑on specialties and post‑course mentoring.
Warm, clear water. Mostly current‑free. Shore entries that keep logistics simple so we can focus on skills and teaching.
Tell me your timelineIDC is the heart of what I do. If you want to branch out, I also teach Tec, Trimix and CCR — safely and step‑by‑step.
Solid decompression foundations and planning that sticks.
Expand depth range with a focus on team skills and control.
Bubble‑free efficiency with a methodical approach to safety.
I’ve been teaching diving for almost a decade and diving for 16 years. What I love most is helping divers turn a passion into a profession. I teach at VIP Diving in Bonaire and keep things positive, supportive and real.
Tell me where you are in your journey and what you want to achieve. I’ll reply with options, dates and next steps.
