PADI FREEDIVER Level 1  

(2 day course)

Minimum Age: 15

Maximum Class Size: 4 students per instructor

Course Description:
Freediving is about inward power, discipline and control. If you’ve always wanted to enter the underwater world quietly, on your own terms, staying longer than you EVER imagined you could, then this freediving course is for you. Taking the PADI Freediver course with Blue Water Freedivers is your first step toward discovering why freediving is becoming a popular and fun way to comfortably explore the aquatic wonders that exist beneath the surface and the waves.

THE PADI FREEDIVER COURSE CONSISTS OF THREE MAIN PHASES:

  • Knowledge development about freediving principles through independent study with PADI Freediver eLearning supplemented with classroom learning sessions.

  • Confined water (e.g. a pool) session to learn breathhold and freediving safety techniques as well as static and dynamic apnea. Goal – static apnea of 90 seconds and dynamic apnea of 25 metres/80 feet.

  • Open water sessions to practice free immersion (line diving) and constant weight (descent and ascent via finning) freedives, plus proper buddy and safety procedures. Goal – constant weight freedive of 10 metres/30 feet.

VALUE & BENEFITS:

  • 4:1 Student-to-Instructor ratio (smallest class size in the industry, translating to more dedicated instructor attention)

  • PADI eLearning package

  • Relaxed (and fun!) classroom sessions - thorough review of Freediving Theory, Technique & Safety Protocols

  • Pool Training (in-water implementation and practice of classroom content)

  • Breath-hold and relaxation technique, practice, and training

  • Open-water sessions in our beautiful Florida springs (great visibility, no boat fees, no rough seas or weather cancellations)

  • BONUS: Refresher courses at no cost (dependent on class size)

  • BONUS: Post-course Instructor access for questions, continued development and freedive progression planning, equipment/gear advice, consultation and guidance
