Freediving Level 1 - 2nd & 3rd October
Our recently qualified Freedivers have been having a great time with their new apnea skills. In years gone by Freediving to depths of 50 meters or more on a single breath was thought to be madness. Not any more. If you would like to try this very popular new course give us a call.
Our next course will be taught by the Australian Womens freediving Champion Alana Caskey Wells. Alana recently set a 50m record in the constant weight category in Dahab as well as breathhold of 5.27 min in the static apnea category and 41metres in the free emersion category!
For those already qualified as a Level 1 Freediver we will be having training sessions with Alana on 23rd Aug, 5th Sep, 26th Sep, 10th Oct & 31 Oct. Please call us to register your interest.
