YOUR ADVENTURE
If you’ve ever wanted to explore the underwater world with complete freedom, our Try Freediving Sydney course is the perfect place to start. Learn with expert guidance as you master the essential techniques of breath-holding, equalisation, and relaxation. Whether you’re a complete beginner or have prior experience in spearfishing, surfing, or diving, our structured courses will help you gain confidence and refine your skills.
The theory and breathing session involves knowledge development about freediving and safety, introduction to equalisation (getting those ears popping), what happens to our body as we hold our breath, relaxation and mental techniques and breathing techniques for breath holding.
The pool sessions will put all of these techniques into practice as we try static apnea (breath holding in the water) as well as introduce dynamic apnea (swimming distance under water), safety training and the most important skill of all… how to blow bubble rings! This free diving course Sydney is designed to help you develop your skills progressively, ensuring that you feel safe, comfortable, and fully prepared to explore deeper waters.
You will leave this course feeling confident in the water, having expanded your comfort zone and feeling excited to test your new skills in the ocean next time you are swimming or snorkeling.
