Initiation course
Level 1
«For those who have never done any underwater activity before and would like to experience freediving, we highly recommend the “discover freediving” option.»
The “Discover freediving” is the right course for those who are curious enough to approach freediving, and yet have not been determined to do a full course. During this course you will discover the wonderful underwater world and its charms from the purest form of diving.
Course content:
-
– Theory session: physiology, respiration, and security systems.
-
– Breathing and relaxation for freediving.
-
– Open water session: where students will practice everything learned in class.
For this course, the only thing you need to know is how to swim, so you just have to sign up and enjoy!
This course is actually the first part of the level 1 course. If you wish to continue with the rest of level 1, you can do it immediately after.

Level 2
«the basics of freediving»
This is the basic course where you will learn the proper breathing techniques for freediving. During this course you will learn all necessary techniques and adequate knowledge to freedive in depths up to 20 meters comfortably.
Course content:
– Theory: physiology, physics, breathing techniques, pressure & equalization, disciplines, safety and rescue.
– Practical workshop: breathing and relaxation techniques.
– Pool: static and dynamic disciplines.
– Sea: breathing, visualization, duck dive, equalization, finning techniques, proper weighting, buddy system, safety and rescue.
At the end of the course students will be able to hold their breath for at least 2 minutes, swim 40 meters underwater and dive between 10 to 20 meters comfortably.
Course duration: 2,5 days (about 12-14 hours approx)
Requirements:
– Be at least 18 years (or 16 with parental consent).
– Know how to swim more than 200m
– Medical certificate with less than two years, indicating you «do not have medical contraindications for freediving».
Includes: Digital manual, freediving equipment, insurance during the course and official certification (when passing the course).The courses are taught following the AIDA standards.
Price: 310€
Level 3
» The advanced course for improving your freediving skills»
This course will provide students with a better understanding of the natural adaptations for freediving: mammalian diving reflex and how to trigger it. You will learn the proper equalization technique for freediving and training methods. After the course students will be able to dive between 20 and 30 meters comfortably.
Course content:
– Theory: for better understanding of the physiological changes that occur inside our body under a high pressure environment, and how to use these changes in order to improve our freediving performances.
– Stretching workshop: mainly thoracic area
– Pool: improvement of static and dynamic disciplines.
– Sea: improvement of Frenzel equalization technique. Free-fall: manage relaxation and energy savings to increase dive time and achieve greater depth.
After the course students will be able to hold their breath for at least 2 minutes and 30 seconds, swim 50 meters underwater and make comfortable dives between 20 and 30 meters deep.Course duration: 3 days (about 18-20 hours approx)
Requirements:
– Be at least 18 years (or 16 with parental consent).
– Know how to swim more than 400m.
– Have passed previous level.
– Medical certificate with less than two years, indicating you «do not have medical contraindications for freediving».
– Have a valid diving insurance.
Includes: Digital manual, freediving equipment and official certification (when passing course).The courses are taught following the AIDA standards.
