SSI Freediving Courses
If you aren’t too sure if freediving is for you, why not do a ‘Try Freediving’ course? This can count towards your SSI Freediving Basic card and is a chance to experience what freediving is all about.
If you decide that freediving is for you, you can continue to work towards your SSI freediving level 1. You will learn breathing techniques, familiarize yourself with diaphragm breathing and take a deep breath like you never have before. In the SSI level 1 Freediving course you acquire the proper skills and knowledge to participate in Freediving to depths of 60 ft (20 meters) in the most relaxed and safest manner possible. You will develop the skills necessary to train your body to be more efficient with breath-holding, gain better respiration and muscle flexibility and learn new skills to take your Freediving to the next level.
The next step is SSI freediving level 2. This will equip you with further knowledge of the mammalian diving reflex and how to initiate the best response for Freediving. You will learn new advanced equalization techniques and apnea training methods to carry you past 60 ft (20 meters) and develop the skills necessary to freedive to depths up to 90 ft (30 meters).
SSI Freediving Level 3 will take you to depths of 120 ft (40 meters). Freediving well below the residual volume of the lungs, this is the specialist deep diving course and will equip you with the proper knowledge to take you into the deep blue and beyond. The fun doesn’t need to stop here!
Freediving also includes specialty programs like Digital Underwater Photography and Mono Fin, or check out a professional career as a Freediving Instructor.
