Monofin Fundamentals

Monofin Course, freediver with Monofin

Experience freediving in a whole new way with a monofin

Our Monofin Fundamentals course will introduce you to monofin freediving, equipping you with the knowledge and skills to take advantage of this wonderful piece of kit.

The course starts with theory, exploring the history of the monofin, its construction and design, and the wide range of models on the market. You’ll learn the different techniques required for monofin freediving, analyse different styles and learn about protecting and transporting a monofin. We’ll then move onto strength and flexibility exercises that will prepare your body for monofin freediving.

Then we’ll move to the pool and put everything into practice, first with bi-fins and then with a monofin. At the end of the course you’ll perform a max dynamic and, if you’re interested, design a personalised training program to improve your monofin performance.

These people loved it!

There was such a relaxed atmosphere on the course. We discussed about other topics and this helped to get a bigger picture of the freediving world!
