Take your freediving journey to the ultimate level with our professional courses that equip you with the tools to teach others and share your love for our thrilling sport

We have been training instructors for over a decade and look forward to sharing with you the wealth and breadth of our experience and giving you the confidence to teach freediving.

The RAID Freediving Instructor course will equip you to teach the next generation of freedivers and share your passion for this amazing sport. Open to RAID Advanced Freedivers, SSI Level 2 freedivers, AIDA 3-star freedivers or equivalent, this course is the ultimate for preparing you to be a freediving instructor.

On the course you’ll learn the RAID freediving system and how to present it, as well as the theoretical and in-water teaching skills you need in order to be a confident and competent freediving instructor. You’ll learn how to understand and recognise the problems beginners face and how to help your students overcome them, and you’ll also get a deeper knowledge of all the other aspects related to teaching freediving such as legalities, business and marketing.

Course details

We run our Freediving Instructor Course over a season, in order for you to become the most experienced and confident instructor. If you are interested in learning from instructor trainer Emma Farrell then please email emma@gofreediving so we can send you a password protected page to more information about the course with us.

Your Professional Freediver Instructor course begins when you book your place. We’ll email you an information pack containing everything you need to know about the course, our suggestions for preparing, as well as information about accommodation and logistics.

We’ll also send you a link to the Professional Freediver Instructor theory materials and course handbook, which is provided online by RAID. All of your course materials are accessed online and they’re kept up-to-date by RAID, so that after your course you’ll have lifetime access to the very latest guidance and information. Home study means you can familiarise yourself with the basics at your own pace and will mean more time for you in the water over the weekend of the course.

You must complete the theory and pass the final exam before the date of your booked course or you will not be allowed in the water.

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!
