I would agree with Malcolm, France is not a good place to train. Florida or Mexico is a much better option, the cave structures there are far more varied. There are a lot of drills that I have no idea how they manage to teach in France (such as dealing with complex cave navigation) as the caves are simply not suited. They all tend to be long, single tunnels. If there are any side passages then they tend to tie back into the main line, not particularly good for learning as if you ever go to Florida or Mexico you'll be stuffed when it comes to dealing with the maze-like stuff they have there.

I don't know if Martin teaches in Florida, if not then I know many people there and in Mexico that I would recommend.

Cheers,

Stuart
