In this paper we studied the effect of water environment on motor function in children 12 years of age engaged in diving. To determine the effect of water environment on the sensory-motor system has been evaluated kinesthetic sensitivity at the beginning and end of the course diving: carpal dynamometry (maximum and playing 50 % of the measured value ), assessment of range of motion arm at the shoulder joint (45° and 135°), precision targeting time (60 seconds), the spatial orientation of the modified procedure Barany . Swimming underwater with scuba diving is differing perceptions of time and space. Most of the children’s perception of time under water has not changed, however, in 5 children while under the water slowed and accelerated in 5 children . It was also a significant decrease in the maximum force the brush under water due to the influence of factors of water environment (weightlessness and hypothermia). Our studies of the modified samples Barany pointed to a significant reduction in sensitivity to space and accuracy associated with the complexity of the use of visual and auditory analyzers in the aquatic environment.
