I did Level 1 and I had so much fun. Was my first time ever doing freedive. I was super nervous because i have no idea about freedive. But the teaching by Kirill, the owner and instructor, was informative, engaging and fun. I think the most important thing is that all of the sessions with him in the water was super safe and professional. I feel ready and safe 100% all the time when we practice together in the deep ocean (even with Nusa Penida infamous strong current) since day 1. Absolutely no pressure to go deep or make me do anything i'm not ready for. At the same time, my abilities were gently extended and I definitely grew more confidence in the water than before. So go to Nusa Penida and do the freedive course with them! Easy access from Bali island, it is your best option other than taking any freedive course in Gili nor Amed. The island itself is simply chillax, not super touristy like other destinations. Highly recommended! Find out what freediving is all about with Kirill - Freedive Nusa. You won't regret it.

Ps: i booked it via their Instagram @freedivenusa, quick response and super easy to book.

Cheers,

Emily made us very comfortable trying something new and it was amazing how much we learned and picked up in just two and a half days! From start to finish it was an experience I tell everyone they have to try, thanks guys! read less

Our instructor Arthur is a really cool, young guy. All of the freediving instructors are also yoga instructors and seem friendly. The facilities are nice - even tho the pool was under construction which would’ve been nice to mention beforehand.
The course was super interesting you learn about relaxation and breathing techniques as well as safety rules. Nusa is a really nice island by the way - we were a little bit unlucky because since we came in rainy season there was a lot of plastic swimming around (which is obviously not the companies fault) but otherwise it’s a nice place to learn freediving.
In general my freediving course was more difficult than for example my scuba diving course - while failing your scuba diving course is not really common failing your freediving course can happen so you might want to plan 1 day extra just in case you don’t pass in the 2 days of training (happend to a woman in our group).
We also attended a manta Ray trip the day after and I really recommend it. We saw many mantas and they came so close, I had to move out of the way because I didn’t want to touch them. A really unique experience! The group was cool - a mix between real professionals and total newbies.
All in all we really enjoyed our time there and recommend the place :) read less

It was a great experience. My instructor Kiril clearly has extensive experience in both the practice and teaching of free diving. While teaching the basics, Kiril gave me deep appreciation of how my practices of yoga and meditation can converge in helping my body and mind to be calm, relaxed, and agile in free diving. I always felt very safe and well guided, despite of variable weather and water conditions throughout the course exercises in the ocean. In addition, Kiril and his partner Yana have very nice energy. read less

They really know how to make the experience unique, whether you are snorkeling or freediving.

The most important thing: Safety is their top concern at all times, and the organization from Freediving Nusa allows you to just relax and enjoy the ride.
You'll be given all the information you need to know what to do and when, and how to make the most out of the experience.

The facilities in the school are designed to provide the best service. Gear, showers, places to rinse gear and cameras, towels, sea sickness tablets, sunscreen, water, they really thought about everything needed to enjoy the during AND after a water adventure.

Kirill leads this school and he makes an immense difference, as a Molchanovs Instructor Developer, he ensures the highest quality standards not just for the school, but also for the adventure trips.

His crew follows his lead and example. They are absolutely amazing, very passionate for the ocean and its conservation, and highly trained water people.

Having been in Nusa Penida for over a decade now, they really know the good places and the right times, making the experience unique. No other tour can provide what they do.

I'll visit them every time I'm in Nusa Penida. Leaving some pictures of the Amazing places we visited, some of the things we saw, and of how safe one feels when diving with them!!! read less

я летала с мантами, видела дюгонь, акул, черепах, множества чудесных ,любопытных рыб, рифы, затем "драконов", оленей... а ночью на подводной нырялке я была феей Динь-динь со светящимся планктоном... у меня всё)))

Это мечта и она реальна, все реально!

Закаты и рассветы, йога, пляжи с песком от черного до розового, чудесный профессиональный фотограф, самое вкусное питание, что я ела в Индонезии))), восходящие потоки, ночной переход и блок-флейта Яна, снеки с Нутелой от Феликса и Артема, чайные церемонии Кирилла и Николая, "я люблю тебя" от Ню Ню, бирюзово- бездонные глаза ее Алекса, потрясные подводные фото Хайко, лёгкость и погружения в миры девчонок Зои и Вероники. Это все останется со мной навсегда ведь счастье в состоянии БЫТЬ, а не иметь!

Кирилл, тот человек, чья уверенность в любом действии вселяет спокойствие, это то что необходимо.
Техничность, порядок, схема мне инженеру очень помогла в погружении.

Благодарю!

P.s. два слова о спутниках. Случайных людей в таких путешествиях не бывает, все из "твоей стаи" и это ощущение великолепно.

It was simply stunning. Probably THE best week I had in a long time!
Kirill and Jan are both amazing instructors and I easily learned how to equalize better and really enjoyed the line training we had in the mornings of the first days! Started to really love freediving and will definitely do my certification while I am in Indonesia
We started the days with meditation/yoga and breathing exercises - many thanks to Kirill for that!

Everything was well organized and planned: from flights and hotels/homestays, special food requests and healthy breakfast options to day trips and fun diving adventures! Thank you Jan for all your magic you did in the background!

And the underwater world of Raja Ampat is simply stunning - often you could just dive off the beach/jetty of your homestay and see beautiful coral and so many fish. At one homestay we had sharks swimming by the common area my favorite was definitely seeing a Manta for the first time in my life at a dive site called Manta Sandy and thrifting along the stunning Cape Kri.

All in all, thanks to the beautiful nature, the great training and other inspiring guests it was definitely a week I will remember! read less

BEST LOCATION for Fundives !

I want to thank for the bottom of my heart All the team FreediveNusa for the amazing experience and knowledge I received.
I spend almost 3 weeks to complete the funniest, intense and craziest Instructor course ever! I had the chance to do it with Kirill :) and I had 2 others unforgettable buddies ( Lin and Vera).

We start as colleague and we finished the course as a family ! Thank you for everything !

Location: The set up at Freedive Nusa is just perfect. Open rooms, clean equipments, swimming pool. The location is excellent for all the lazy person like me, just across the road from the sea (less than 1min).
Hotel and restaurant: nearby (in 4 minutes you are at Penida Colada the best spot ever to eat and read your course)
Course: Instructor extremely professional and knowledgeable about Freediving. Theory and practice are done in a logical manner. The teaching ambiance is just Unique !
Bonus: After each Open-water session, you have the chance to end the session with time to dive on the house reef which is just magical. I see 2 turtle and incredible marine life there. The color are beautiful.

BONUS2: They organize TRIPS around Bali at Raj Ampat, Komodo and more !

Can’t wait to meet you again read less
