Push your limits and learn to control your breathing! The Apnea Academy Level 1 Freediving course will teach you the basics of freediving in Las Galletas, Tenerife.
Ocean Friends offers you the chance to start your path into one of the most challenging water sports out there. Freediving is a sport in which breathing control and relaxation are key elements to succeed. Pushing the limits of your body and mind, freediving aims to go deeper and deeper into the mysteries of the ocean.
Apnea Academy is an internationally recognized freediving certification which guarantees the course you'll take with Dive Center Ocean Friends is up to quality standards.
The Level 1 freediving course is aimed at all people interested in discovering freediving. During this 15-hour course divided into 2 to 4 days, you'll start from the basics, like static apnea (keeping your breath as long as possible in the same spot). Then you'll continue to a pool session in which you'll learn dynamic apnea (keeping your breath while swimming in a horizontal direction). The last 2 sessions will take place in open water in which you'll practice constant weight (keeping your breath while going deeper).
In between and during the sessions, you'll learn the theoretical aspects of freediving along with relaxation techniques, yoga applied to freediving, compensation techniques, and rescue and auto rescue techniques.
