It will help you to be more effective during the course and to be more focused on diving and practicing new skills instead of learning the theory in the classroom.

Your course will start in the classroom where you will learn crucial information about human physiology, the proper breathing process, and the mammalian diving reflex.
You will learn techniques of relaxation and proper breathing before and after the dive. After the class, you will be able to do your deepest breath ever. With a full understanding of the physiology and the psychology of the processes, you will realize, how to prepare your body and mind for a smooth, relaxed, and safe breath-hold dive.

Before entering the sea you will practice breath-holding in the pool. Most of the participants can hold their breath for 2-3 minutes during the first session.

You will learn how underwater pressure affects our body and gain essential skills for every freediver — Frenzel Equalization.
You will go through special stretching for freedivers, relaxation, and visualization techniques — all would improve your body preparations for the dive.

What things do I need to bring to start freediving?

You don’t necessarily need to bring anything to your course. We have all the gear you might need but if you have your own gear like fins, mask, wetsuit, be sure to bring it with you.

Freediving with your own gear is always more convenient.

How can I freedive if I can not hold my breath for too long?

This is one of the popular doubts for beginners but it appears only due unknowing.

During your basic freediving course you will learn proper breathing and relaxation techniques.

Almost all the students reach breath-hold times of well over 2 minutes without any problems during the first lesson!
