Learn the basics and safety skills of freediving in a day!
Intro to Freediving
Looking for a new way to explore the underwater world? Then the Intro to Freediving course is the perfect place to start. This course is designed for adventurers and water lovers with little to no freediving experience who aren’t ready to commit to a full certification course. During the course, students will spend the day learning basic freediving and safety skills. Students will learn to extend their breath hold up to an average of 1 minutes and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, swim confidently underwater with fins, and all the safety and rescue skills to recreate responsibly.
After completing the Intro to Freediving course, students can easily upgrade to their first certification course by adding on an open water dive at a later date.
