FREEDIVING COURSES
Freediving is about more than depth or time; it’s about developing the right mindset and focus for safe, mindful diving. With the right attitude, you can enjoy the sport while prioritizing safety and personal growth.
At H2O, we teach freediving using the trusted AIDA framework (International Association for the Development of Freediving), offering courses from AIDA 1* to 4*. For those aspiring to teach, we also offer the AIDA Instructor course.
The AIDA education system focuses on gradual progression, building both in-water skills and theoretical knowledge. Each course builds on what you’ve learned in the previous level, ensuring a solid foundation for your freediving journey.
AIDA 1*
AIDA 1* is a one-day introductory course that gives you a taste of freediving, allowing you to discover what the sport is truly all about.
AIDA 2*
AIDA 2* is a 2.5-day course that provides a comprehensive introduction to freediving. You’ll explore four key disciplines: Static, Dynamic, Free Immersion, and Constant Weight, giving you a solid foundation in the sport.
AIDA 3*
AIDA 3* is a 4-day course that builds on your freediving skills. With 3 pool sessions, 4 open water sessions, and advanced theory, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of more complex freediving techniques.
AIDA 4*
AIDA 4* is a 4-day course that advances your freediving skills, both theoretically and practically. This qualification also allows you to become an assistant instructor, giving you the opportunity to help qualified instructors run courses.
AIDA INSTRUCTOR
COURSE
This is a minimum 10-day course focused on teaching you how to coach freediving, not just how to dive. You’ll learn how to guide students through the AIDA framework, helping them achieve their best performances and improve their own freediving skills.
COACHING &
TRAINING DAYS
We also offer tailor-made coaching or training days to help you improve your depth, dynamic length, breath-hold, or focus on specific disciplines like monofin. Whether you’re looking to practice or further develop your freediving skills outside of a course, we’ve got you covered.
