The freediving theory will include: Introduction to Freediving, Freediving Breathing Cycle, Basic Physiology of Freediving, Equalization, Freediving Techniques, Safety in Freediving, Equipment in Freediving, Freediving Disciplines.

The static and dynamic sessions in confined water are used to teach relaxation, breathing, finning and safety techniques. In the open water sessions students will apply the skills they have learned in the pool / confined water sessions and combine them with the basic skills of open water freediving such as equalizing, duck diving, vertical swimming, body positioning, turns and use of buoyancy.

Prerequisites

• Be 18 years of age or older (16 or 17 years old with parent or guardian consent)

• Can swim at least 200m non-stop without fins or at least 300m non-stop with mask, fins and snorkel

• It is highly recommended that you are used to swimming with fins and a facemask.

Certification Requirements

• 2 minutes STA

• 40 meters DYNB

• 12 meters CWTB

• Theoretical exam-passing score is 75%

Duration

• 2 days

• 1 pool session
