[What You’ll Experience in This Course]
This course allows you to earn SSI’s (*) official beginner-level freediving certification (commonly known as a “license”). You will learn the fundamentals of freediving—“breathing,” “ear equalization,” “fin work,” and “safety”—through three steps: classroom instruction, pool training, and open-water training.
*SSI: A global diving education organization and a highly reputable training body with internationally standardized safety standards and instructional materials.
Once certified, you will be able to free dive in open water to a depth of 20 meters with a buddy.
