All sports come with inherent risk, freediving is safe when practiced correctly and responsibly. On our courses we will teach you how to progress safely and also how to minimise risk in freediving which includes diving with a trained buddy and diving within you limits. 

We prioritise providing an optimal learning environment for students, to achieve this, we maintain a cosy space with smaller class sizes, particularly for beginner sessions. This approach ensures personalised attention and a better experience for all participants. Additionally, our need to book lanes in advance means we operate on a monthly booking schedule. This helps us manage class sizes effectively. If you’re interested in joining or require further information, please feel free to Contact Us for more details.

We are not doctors so we can’t give you medical advice. However, we will provide you with a medical form before you come on the course to complete. If you answer yes to any of the questions or you are unsure then we recommend speaking to your G.P.  We can also provide details for a Dive Doctor who is experienced in advising on freediving as some GP’s won’t sign medical forms off for SCUBA and freediving. 

Being fit is beneficial for freediving like most sports, however freediving does not require the same level of aerobic fitness as running for example. So, as long as you are comfortable swimming 100m non-stop then you should be fine on our introduction to freediving course. 

Freediving can be enjoyed at any age, the oldest freediver we have been diving with is 84, as long as you can swim 100m non-stop and don’t have any health conditions that would stop you diving then you will be fine. 

Yes, the course provides you with an internationally recognised freediving qualification from AIDA International 

Have you head the phrase “walk before you run”?  Whilst there are course providers that will take you straight out to sea or to a lake, these can overwhelm some students who may struggle to learn the basics in these environments and come away from their course disappointed. 

Swimming pools provide a warm and controlled environment to learn key skills for freediving such as how to hold your breath, kick correctly and equalise. We start the course in 1m of water and finish the course in the 4m dive pool so regardless of your ability or water confidence you have time to gradually adapt to freediving. 

It is important for all club members to have a solid foundation in freediving to enable them to safely buddy other students and our insurance requires all members to hold a freediving qualification therefore you will need to complete a freediving course before joining the club.  

Although Scuba and freediving both take place underwater, this is where the similarities end therefore you will need to undertake a course before joining the club.
