Many freedivers don’t have regular easy access to deep water, maybe the same will be true for you after your course. Not everybody has the chance to live by the sea but that won’t stop you from becoming a great freediver. This makes dynamic apnea a great way to train Freediving away from the oceans and lakes. In Dynamic Apnea you work on improving both techniques and mental and physical strength, even if your main focus would be open water freediving. You will gain a lot of experience by playing around with different swimming speeds, breathe-ups and finning techniques. Many freedivers train mostly in pools and take trips occasionally to go deeper. Get ready to swim few laps at Freedive Dahab.
The course includes 2 dynamic apnea sessions.
Depth Training:
This is where you use all the knowledge and technique you learned in the shallow training. In Dahab we don’t need a boat to Freedive. We have 40-50m 100 meters from our Freediving center. In the bay, where the bottom is approximately 20m, your instructor will set up a vertical dive-line with a surface buoy. The dive line you use as a visual reference to swim vertically, and as a safety device. Together you will freedive a little deeper on each try. Your swimming technique will be corrected for maximum efficiency underwater. The goal is to find relaxation and to fine tune your techniques. Freediving is a form of meditation; it’s easy to learn and require no fitness abilities unless you are at competition level. You will feel like floating in space. After 2 days of training with us in Dahab, you will freedive comfortably to 10-20meters. You simply need to buy a mask, snorkel and fins for your next holiday, and the ocean is yours to explore. Dahab is the perfect spot to learn freediving beginner skills. The water is warm, clear, calm all year long. The marine life and corals are stunning.
The course includes 2 open water sessions.
NOTE: The SSI Standard Manual is a temporary manual; this means that after 3 months from course completion you will not have access to it anymore. If you want to have permanent access to your manual please specify this at the moment of the booking and ask for the Diamond Manual, which will cost an additional 10 euro. A later upgrade is also possible but the difference in price is higher ( 20 euro extra instead of 10 euro).
