Whether you are someone who has never freedived and are simply looking for your next challenge, are an experienced freediver preparing for competition or wishing to update and maintain skills and training,  or a spearfisher or scuba diver looking to improve and enhance your experience underwater, our summer courses are an excellent opportunity to acquire the skills and knowledge to be a safe and competent freediver.

If you are new to the world of freediving there are usually two recommended courses you can choose from when you start your freediving journey with us. They are the RAID Freediver Course and the Foundation Freediver Course. We also offer returning sessions for all students and freedivers looking to cross-over from another programme, or return to freediving after an extended break.

Our courses run from June (sometimes a little sooner) through to October, with several courses running every month – including midweek courses.

If you’ve never done freediving before we recommend you dive straight into our popular two day RAID Freediver Course . Our students LOVE this course and it certifies you as an openwater freediver able to dive to 20m! Alternatively if you prefer to start off with a one day course you can opt for our Foundation Freediver course (Level 1) this course is held on a Saturday and will certify you to dive to 5m. Once you have completed the Level 1 course and you would like to progress on your freediving journey ou can come back and complete the Level 2 Openwater course to upgrade your certification to be certified to dive to 20m.

Why should I do a Freediving Course?

Freediving is an amazing skill to have. It’s not just about impressing your friends with how long you can hold your breath! You will be safer in the water, be able to scuba dive more efficiently, snorkel for longer and deeper, manage and recover from surfing wipeouts and, if you are a performance athlete or someone who wants to improve your performance on dry land as well as in the water, freediving skills will help.

Freediving is also an amazing, meditative sport, so is known to help with anxiety, depression and other stress related conditions. Which is why we also offer a variety of online breathing optimisation classes and yoga sessions which run regularly throughout the year.

The question should not be ‘why?’, it should be ‘why not?’
