If you are considering starting freediving the chances are it is to embark on a new sporting challenge or to improve existing skills as a freediver, spearfisher, snorkeler or surfer. It could be to improve your breathing capacity or fitness as an athlete or to overcome or improve health issues you are facing such as anxiety, fear, confidence, fitness and more. Or, you may have simply seen freediving – and fancied trying it out!

Freediving courses with Go Freediving are cleverly designed to ensure that regardless of your experience, age or ability you have the chance to become a competent freediver. Here’s why:

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are Safe

Go Freediving places huge importance on safety.  This is from the moment you book your course right through to the moment we send your de-brief package and beyond. We well exceed all minimum standards and have an enviable safety record across the board.

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are Fun

Courses don’t need to be boring (or macho). Freediving courses with Go Freediving have a relaxed, friendly feel. All of our instructors were also Go Freediving students, so know exactly what you are going through and understand how to encourage and motivate students so that the course is not only about learning a new skill, it is about having a memorable experience with like-minded students too.

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are great value

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are great value. Your course fee includes your online theory course, all tuition and *venue costs, all kit and equipment hire (including your wetsuit) which is of high quality and specifically for freediving and of course, your certification. When you compare our prices against other course providers and see what you get for your money (check out the standard of our tuition, below!) we’re sure you’ll agree that our prices are great value.

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are Professional

At Go Freediving we follow the RAID programme for our freediving courses. Our courses follow the latest guidelines for teaching freediving and place great emphasis on understanding the student as an individual, not as part of a class. We are not the type of school who issues certification just for turning up. We are also not the type of school that creates an intimidating, macho learning environment. We strive to provide the best learning environment for all of our students – a memorable experience  we hope they won’t hesitate to recommend to others.

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving Provide High Quality Instruction

Go Freediving offers some of the best instruction in the UK today. What other course provider can offer a world class owner instructor who also has three of her instructors currently in the UK Freediving team?

We know this doesn’t mean they can teach, but they really can – and then some! Our instructors have helped hundreds of students achieve certifications in all levels of freediving in the style and approach taught by Emma herself.

Oh, and did we mention we have the best instructor to student ratios out there? An average Go Freediving course would have one instructor to only three students. Pretty hard to beat! Yet,  due to two students falling ill before this course our students this week had two instructors between three students!!

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are Compacted Courses  (this means they run over two days instead of several weeks)

Freediving courses with Go Freediving run over the course of two days – usually a weekend . This means learning becomes more ingrained and focused as you are practising what you are learning straight away, without needing to remember what you learned the week (or weeks) before. We believe this is a more consistent way to learn how to freedive, and can help students progress at a much quicker rate.

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving take place in a Prime UK Location

The open water skills take place at the fantastic inland dive centre, Vobster Quay. For some, this may seem an unusual choice, however, once students have visited and dived in the site, they understand why it is such an excellent venue for learning to freedive. No choppy waters, excellent visibility, amazing underwater attractions, great facilities,  beautiful location, easy access are just a few of the reasons Vobster is home to Go Freediving, even if we can’t guarantee the weather!

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving are Run by People Who Really Do Care

At Go Freediving, your course doesn’t end the moment you get out of the water. We provide a full email debrief of your course, provide a course video as a keepsake and offer assistance and guidance whenever you need it. We also offer additional options for students who need to complete skills to come back and repeat courses at a significantly reduced rate to help you get your certification.

Freediving Courses with Go Freediving Opens Doors

Those who take freediving courses with Go Freediving leave them with an incredible boost in body awareness, mental attitude, confidence and often with an adjusted perception of what their limits really are. This has a positive impact on their future, not only as a freediver, but in many other aspects of their lives – such as work, health and general home life.
