FOR COMPLETE BEGINNERS

Curious about freediving, but not sure where to begin?

Start gently with breath, movement and a clear progression from the studio to the pool and then into open water.

YOUR FIRST STEP

Three supportive ways to begin

There is no single right way into freediving. Start with the experience that feels most comfortable for you.

01

BEGIN WITH WELLBEING

The gentlest entry, led by breathwork, mindfulness and a gradual relationship with the water.

LEARN TO FREEDIVE WELLBEING JOURNEY

A supported journey for people drawn to the wellbeing side of freediving and a slower introduction to the water.
