Apnea (breath-hold) Theory & Practice; dry and in water

How long can you hold your breath? I'm willing to bet a lot longer than you think you can! When we hold our breath (especially in water), our bodies are provided with incredibly valuable mental and physical benefits. We'll cover the basics in theory and practice of our bodies' incredible ability for controlled apnea, in an entirely safe and fun environment.

Freediving Depth Techniques for DYN, CWT, & FIM Disciplines

This course (approximately two and a half days) will give you the chance to learn and practice a few of the main Freediving techniques used for both recreational and competition diving: DYN (Dynamic, swimming horizontal under the surface); CWT (Constant Weight, finning down and up an anchored line (to shallow depths)); and FIM (Free Immersion, pulling down and up a rope without using fins (to shallow depths)).

Safety and Equipment

The number one rule of Freediving is: Never dive alone!

Contrary to popular belief, Freediving is actually a very safe sport - as long as divers have their knowledge, skills, and appropriate equipment and procedures, the sport is incredibly safe. This course will give you a good amount of theory and practice of rescue procedures, use, and practice of safety equipment to help you on your diving journey of being safe, and having fun!
