Freediving is about inward power, discipline, and control. If you've always wanted to enter the underwater world quietly, on your own terms, staying as long as your breath allows, then freediving is for you. Taking the PADI Freediver Course is your first step toward discovering why freediving is becoming a popular way to explore beneath the waves.

The PADI Basic Freediver course is a subset of the PADI Freediver course. It's a great first step toward developing solid freediving skills. You learn basic freediving principles and focus on practicing breath-hold techniques in a pool or confined water site. 

The PADI Freediver Level 1 (Full Course) will help you take your basic freediving skills and put them to use in a two-day course that includes a confined water session where you will learn safety skills, and breath-hold techniques as well as static and dynamic apnea, and an open water session where you will practice safety skills, free immersion and constant weight freedives, plus buddy procedures.
