Course Director and Instructor Trainer at all technical and cave levels, one of the co-founders of IDF. An engineer by education, a salesman by profession, an instructor by passion. Błażej began his diving adventure in 1978, when, as a teenager, he took his first diving course, lasting several months. Despite the problems with access to equipment and limited opportunities for foreign travel in communist Poland back then, he pursued his passion with full determination.
After many years, he could proudly boast of his outstanding achievements in finding and exploring wrecks in the Baltic Sea, as well as popularising modern diving techniques in Poland (including the use of nitrox, trimix and semi-closed circuit breathing apparatus). He became a trainer for rescue divers and special forces.
He also trained many generations of instructors at all levels of proficiency, which led him to become the Head of Training at one of the largest diving organisations in Poland. After many years in this role, he decided to use his experience and join the process of creating the IDF to try to build a diving federation that would meet his needs and ideas.
